Insulation monitoring
Is this inverter being mounted in a vehicle of any other mobile or movable unit?
And is the 230VAC going to be used outside the vehicle/unit? Then please pay
attention to the following:
Important!
If this inverter is used in mobile unities, like mobile workplaces, fire trucks,
workmen
’ s huts etc, it is usually difficult to get a good and reliable safety
connection to earth. However, by law it is
obligated
to make sure that a person
can use an inverter or mobile generator safely. If the inverter is mounted inside
vehicle/unit, and one goes to work
outside
the vehicle/unit with the connected
230VAC equipment, then it is mandatory to mount an
insulation monitoring
device
. An RCD (not any type!) will not meet! When an accident occurs because
an insulation monitoring device isn ’ t mounted in the system, it has serious
consequences. In these situations, always mount an insulation monitoring device
from our ISO-series between de inverter and equipment. For more info, please
visit our website www.xenteq.nl. The law applies to all vehicles/mobile units that
are use professionally. Caravans, mobile homes etc. are excluded from this law,
however the circumstances are identical.
I N U S E
Check that the cables are mounted correctly. Never use the inverter when the
cables are damaged. Turn the inverter on. The inverter will first perform a short
self-test followed by an acoustic signal. Then the 230VAC output is available.
A warm housing is normal when the inverter is operating.
If you will not be using the inverter for a significant period (during winter storage
for example), we recommend disconnecting it from the battery.
