SW240R-R1
Model:
SW150-12, SW650-24
SW350-12, SW1200-24
SW650-12, SW1800-24
SW1200-12, SW3000-24

Symptom
Possible Cause
Solution
AC output will not stay ON
Some loads may be to small to hold
inverter ON
Increase size of load
Inverter shuts down due over
temperature
Insufficient ventilation around inverter
Ensure true power rating of appliance
(including power factor) is less than
inverter output rating
Improve ventilation
Check ratings and reduce with dif-
ferent appliance
Inverter shuts down when trying
to start a load
Possible surge from motor starting
causing shut down
Check that battery voltage is within
specification. If voltage drops ex
-
cessively when starting, batteries
size may have to be increased. Or
load is too large for inverter
.
Load LED flashes
Overload
Reduce load. Remove load.
Under V
oltage LED flashes
Low input voltage
Check battery status. Re-charge
if required.
Over T
emp LED flashes
Thermal shutdown
Improve ventilation.
Over V
oltage LED flashes
Excessive input voltage
Check input voltage. Reduce if too
high.
TV channel interference on
some channels
Connection of chassis ground lug at
rear of inverter needs attention.
High power loads being used during
TV viewing.
Ensure TV antenna providing a good
signal.
TV is close to power inverter
.
DC power cables too long causing
excessive radiated interference.
Check chassis ground lug is a
solid connection.
Do not use high power loads.
Check antenna wiring and connec-
tion.
Move TV away from power in-
verter
.
Shorten cables if necessary and
twist them together with approx. 2
to 3 twists per foot.
Trouble Shooting:
WARNING! -
Do not open or disassemble inverter
.
Attempting to service the unit yourself may result in a risk of
electrical shock or fire.

Safety Instructions:
WARNING! -
Professional electrical / renewable energy installer should perform the installation, as dangerous
voltages can be present. Before installing and using your inverte
r, read the Installation Instructions!
Explosive Gas Precautions:
This equipment contains components that can produce arcs or sparks.
T
o prevent fire or explosion do not install in
compartments containing batteries or flammable materials, or in locations that require ignition-protected equipment.
This includes any space containing petrol-powered machinery, fuel tanks, joints or other connections between
components of the fuel system.
Precautions When Working With Batteries:
•
If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water
. If acid gets into eyes, immediately
flood eyes with running cold water for at least 20 minutes and get medical attention immediately.
NEVER
smoke,
allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of batteries or engine. Do not drop a metal tool on the battery as the resulting
spark or short-circuit of the battery may cause an explosion.
•
Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when working with a lead-acid
battery
.
A lead-acid battery produces a short-circuit current, high enough to weld a ring or similar metal, causing a
severe burn.
WARNING! - Shock Hazard!
Before proceeding further, ensure that the Inverter is NOT connected to any
Batteries, and that all wiring is disconnected from any electrical Sources. Do not connect the 0utput
Terminals of
the Inverter to an incoming
AC sources.
WARNING! -
Reverse polarity connection will blow the internal fuse and may damage the inverter permanently
.
Before installing your inverter
, please make sure that you have appropriately sized batteries.
A battery that is too
small in capacity will not allow the inverter to perform to its full specification.
The DC cabling must be connected to
the correct polarity terminals of the battery bank. (Red = Positive, Black = Negative).
DO NOT
extend the DC cable length to the inverter unless you are prepared to increase the diameter of the cable. If
this is necessary consult your supplier or installer for advice.
