This problem does not occur with the vast majority of battery
operated equipment. Most of this equipment uses a separate
charger or transformer that is plugged into the AC receptacle
and produces a low voltage output. If the label on the AC
adapter or charger states that the adapter or charger produces a
low voltage AC or DC output (less than 30 volts), the PROwatt
250 will have no trouble powering this charger or adapter
safely.
3.4 Placement of inverter
For best operating results, the inverter should be placed on a flat
surface, such as the floor or seat of a vehicle. Approximately
0.6 m (2 feet) of cord has been provided for this purpose. The
inverter should only be used in locations that meet the following
requirements:
a) Dry
- do not allow water to drip or splash on the PROwatt
250.
b) Cool
- ambient air temperature should be between 0
º
C and
40
º C -
ideally between 15
º
C and 25
º
C. Do not place the
inverter on or near a heating vent or any piece of equipment
which is generating heat above room temperature. Do not
place the inverter in direct sunlight if avoidable.
c) Ventilated
- allow at least one inch of clearance around the
PROwatt 250 for air flow. Do not place items on or over the
inverter during operation. Make sure that air is allowed to
circulate freely around the unit. A fan is helpful in the case
