Introduction 

Thank you for your purchase of the Ramsond SunRay power inverter.   With minimal care and 
proper treatment, this inverter will provide years of reliable service. Carefully  read, understand 
and comply with all instructions before use. Keep this manual for future reference. 

Nearly a decade of advanced research, development and real-world testing in some of the most 
demanding conditions have yielded the world’s most sophisticated series of DC to AC 

pure sine 

wave

 power inverters.   The Ramsond SunRay inverters are arguably the most advanced and 

reliable  pure  sine  wave  inverters  available  in  the  market.    The  design,  functionality,  stability, 
reliability and affordability of SunRay inverters are simply unrivaled.  They are extremely rugged 
and  powerful.    At  the  same  time,  they  are  elegant  in  appearance,  compact  and  lightweight.  
They are developed to be user-friendly and furnish real time live data and information (via LED 

displays and alarms) about the working conditions of the inverter, the load and battery bank.   

Safety Standards 

The  SunRay  inverters  are  certified  and  tested  to  be  compliant  with  the  most  stringent  safety 

standards (UL458, ETL, CE).   

About Power Inverters 

A  power  inverter,  in  simple  terms,  changes  Direct  Current  (DC)  power  from  a  battery  into 
conventional  Alternating  Current  (AC)  power  that  can  use  used  to  operate  most  electrical 
devices, instruments and appliances.  

Pure Sine Wave Output 

SunRay inverters convert the direct current (DC) power of batteries to alternating current (AC), 
the  type  of  power  used  by  modern  appliances  and  devices.      The  AC  power  produced  by 
SunRay inverters is

 pure (true) sine wave

, which is the same quality of power produced by the 

utility grid.   Pure sine wave output is a far superior (cleaner) form of output power as compared 
with modified sine wave power.  Increasingly, most modern electrical or electronic devices such 
as laptop computers, stereos, laser printers, sensitive medical equipment, digital clocks, kitchen 
appliance  with  multi-stage  timers,  and  variable  speed  or  rechargeable  tools  can  only  function 
properly with pure (true) sine wave power.  SunRay’s pure sine wave output provides suitable 
power for operation of 

all 

electronic and electrical appliances and devices, whereas the inferior 

modified sine wave inverters are not capable of providing suitable power to many devices.  Both 
the function and longevity of electrical/electronic devices and appliances are improved with pure 
sine wave power.
