Power inverter with 12 V vehicle plug

This operating manual
Operational information
For continuous operation of devices via the power
inverter the 12 V vehicle socket must supply a voltage
between 11 - 15,5 V
.
The voltage source of the 12 V vehicle socket can
be perhaps an automotive battery or a regulated
DC voltage like a transformer-accumulator station.
Before connecting the power inverter check to see
that the voltage source is supplying sufficient power
for operation.
The required power needed for operation can be
calculated as follows:
Example
The power source should also supply at least 14,7 A.
Attention!
Never connect the power inverter to a 24 V
supply system. Otherwise the device will be da-
maged. The device can only be connected to a
voltage source with a nominal voltage of 12 V.
Setup
• The power inverter should be positioned on an
even, flat surface. Make sure that there is 1 cm
free space remaining all around the power inverter
for air circulation.
• A distance of 50 cm must be maintained behind
the fan's ventilation slots.
In vehicle operation
If you are operating the power inverter in a vehicle
make sure that the installation is not a hindrance
when driving the vehicle. For this, install cables so
that they do not come into contact with moveable
parts in the vehicles interior and they do not obstruct
the view.
Note:
The power inverter can also be operated when
the engine is switched off. However be aware
that the power inverter possibly may not func-
tion during an engine startup.
