INSTALLATION
The power inverter should be installed in a location that meets the following requirements:
•
Dry – Do not allow water to drip or splash on the inverter.
• Cool – Ambient air temperature should be between -20°C and 50°C, but the cooler the better.
• Safety – Do not install batteries in the compartment or other areas near flammable fumes such
as fuel storage areas or engine compartments.
•
Ventilated
– Allow at least one feet of clearance around the Inverter for air flow. Ensure the
ventilation shafts on the rear and bottom of the unit are not obstructed.
• Dust-free – Do not install the Inverter in dusty environments here dust, wood particles or
other filings/shavings are present. The dust can be pulled into the unit when the cooling fan is
in operation.
• Close to batteries – Avoid excessive cable lengths but do not install the inverter in the same
compartment as batteries.
• Use the recommended wire lengths and sizes (refer to section 4.DC wiring connections).
• Do not mount the inverter where it is exposed to the gases produced by the battery. These
gases are very corrosive and prolonged exposure will damage the inverter.
Shock Hazard. Before proceeding further, carefully check that the inverter is NOT connected to
any batteries, and that all wiring is disconnected from any electrical sources. Do not connect the
output terminals of the inverter to an incoming AC source.
