the preset voltage threshold is not reached, and remains lit after 10 seconds, shutting
off the output.
Shutdown due to high DC input voltage is intended to protect the inverter
against irreversible damages.
In both cases, when the battery voltage returns to a value within the acceptable
working range, the unit will automatically restart. (After a shut-down due to low DC
input voltage, the voltage has to raise significantly in order to allow the battery to
recover).
6.- INSTALLATION
6.1.- Inverter Mounting
The inverter must be fixed on a vertical surface, with its connection wires at the
bottom of the unit and with at least 5 cm clearance at the top and at the bottom for
adequate airflow. It should be placed high enough so that it is out of the reach of
children and animals.
The inverter should be fitted using screws placed through the four holes
provided for such purpose. The lock-shaped holes allows you to place the screws in
the wall before you put the inverter, and tightening them later.
6.2.- Wiring
The inverter has three or four cable holders located in the bottom part, from which
the following cables come out:
•
A red cable (or with a red terminal) to connect to the positive (+) terminal of the
battery.
•
A black (or blue) cable to connect to the negative (-) terminal of the battery.
•
A three wire cable (phase, neutral and ground) or an industrial connector for
connection to the AC loads.
•
An optional two wire cable to connect to the remote control.
Battery cables have a terminal at the end which must be attached with bolts to the
terminals of the battery.
DO NOT EXTEND THESE CABLES.
Be sure to properly
fasten these bolts and retighten them after a few days. You must also make sure that
all bolts used with battery connecting cables (jumper wire) are tight. If during the
operation of the inverter any battery connecting cable is hotter than others, you should
tighten its bolts and/or clean both battery terminals and connecting battery cables ends.
Before connecting the unit ensure that the ON/OFF switch on the front panel is in
the OFF position and that the house RCD (residual-current device, also known as GFI
(ground fault interrupter) in U. S. and Canada) is open, then proceed as follows:
•
Connect the AC wires to the external output breaker. Live cable is brown, gray or
black, the neutral cable is blue and ground cable is yellow and green. Neutral and
ground cables are connected to the casing of the unit. Unit casing should be
connected to an earthing rod that complies with the specifications described in the
