Specifications
WARNING: The converter/inverter is intended to recharge batteries. The battery that is connected to this
product is only suitable if it complies with the given battery standard for that battery type and is provided with a
battery management system that will monitor and control the electrical and thermal health of the battery during
charging. When installing this inverter, the battery is to be verified as in compliance with the applicable battery
standard.
All ratings assume 12.6 VDC nominal voltage, 25°C ambient temperature, and that the inverter is mounted in free
air. Specifications are subject to change without notice.
