switch on the face of the inverter is turned "On".
You may use several switches or relays in parallel
in lieu of one remote switch. If the remote switch
is not used, the inverter can be turned “Off” or “On”
with the switch on the inverter.
3.07 120 VAC Output
3.07.1
CAUTION: Do not connect another
source of AC power directly to the output of the
inverter. This will result in damage to the inverter
that is not covered under warranty!
3.07.2
The 120 VAC output of the inverter
is provided at the GFCI receptacle outlet on the
inverter.
3.07.3
The output is also presented behind
the wiring compartment panel for direct hardwire
wire leads. The black wire is hot, the white wire is
neutral and the green wire is ground. The cable
clamp strain relief should be used to secure the field
wires.
3.07.4
The hardwire A.C. output is not
ground fault circuit interrupt (GFCI) protected.
GFCI outlets should be installed at all appropriate
locations per NEC 551 . The GFCI outlet should be
Hubbell, Model GFR5352XX (20A) or GFR5252XX
(15A).
3.07.5
The remote AC outlets should be
mounted at a convenient location in a listed outlet
box with approved strain relief.
4. START-UP/OPERATION
4.01
To operate the inverter, turn the switch
to "ON". Assure that the output breakers are
reset. If a remote switch is used, the inverter is
turned "On" or "Off" by the remote switch.
5. TROUBLESHOOTING
5.01
Sensata offers free phone consultation
concerning installation or troubleshooting. Call the
Customer Service Department at 1-800-553-6418
or 651-653-7000; fax: 651-653-7600

5.02
If the inverter fails to operate, use the
following troubleshooting procedure.
5.02.1
Connect a 100 watt light bulb to the
inverter output.
5.02.2
Make sure that the inverter
is turned “On” along with the remote switch, if used,
and that the circuit breakers are reset.
5.02.3
Check the connection to the
remote switch, if used. +12 VDC
must
be present
at the violet wire for the unit to operate. If not,
check any fuses in the +12VDC remote switch
circuit.
5.02.4
Observe the fault indicating lights
on
the front of the inverter.
a) The Low battery light indicates a low
battery condition. Switch the inverter “Off” for 5
seconds, then “On” again. The light coming on
again indicates a fault in the battery wiring, battery
capacity and voltage or the line fuse.
b) The Overload light indicates an output
wiring short circuit or a load that is too large for the
power rating of the inverter. Switch the inverter
“Off”, remove the short circuit or excessive load
from the output, then switch the inverter back
“On”.
c) The High temperature light indicates the
inverter has overheated. The unit will automatically
turn back on when it has cooled to 40 degrees C
(104 degrees F). Verify the inverter is not in a
closed compartment and that the fan is not
blocked.
5.03
Call Sensata for technical assistance and/
or a return authorization number if the above steps
are completed and the inverter still will not operate
satisfactorily
