Freedom SW-RVC Installation Guide
Protected
from battery
acid and
gases
Never place the inverter/charger directly above
the batteries—gases from battery will corrode and
damage the inverter/charger. If the
inverter/charger is installed in a compartment
above the batteries, make sure there is a solid,
gas-impermeable wall dividing the two
compartments. However, flooded or wet cell
batteries produce flammable gases that can
potentially be ignited and therefore a safety
hazard. If the batteries are sealed (no caps to add
water), then the Freedom SW-RVC can be
mounted above the batteries if so desired (a
position outlined in this guide). Never allow
battery acid to drip on the inverter/charger or its
wiring when filling the batteries or reading their
specific gravity.
Safe
Locate the inverter/charger away from battery in a
separate well ventilated compartment. Do not
install the inverter/charger in any compartment
containing flammable gases or liquids like
gasoline.
Ventilated
Do not operate the inverter/charger in a closed-in
area or restrict ventilation in any way. The
inverter/charger requires air circulation to maintain
optimum operating temperature and provide best
performance. If the unit has inadequate
ventilation, it may shut down due to overheating.
The air vented through the openings should also
have a path to circulate away from the
inverter/charger.
