Using the inverter
Caution
e
If no circuit breaker is present: If the inverter is connected to the
external mains voltage, the 230 V output socket is earthed.
If there is no external mains voltage, the inverter is only connected
to the battery (DC operation). In this case, the 230 V output socket
is not earthed, but safeguarded with the protective insulation
instead.
Caution – Risk of short circuit!
e
You must switch on the inverter first before switching on the
consumers.
When using the inverter, observe the following instructions:
If the battery voltage drops below the alarm value during operation (see
"Low voltage alarm" in chapter "Technical data" on page 41), a warning
signal sounds and LED "UVP" (fig. 1 7, page 3) lights up.
If the battery voltage drops below the shutdown value (See "Low voltage
shutdown" in chapter "Technical data" on page 41), the inverter switches
off.
If the inverter overheats, it switches off and LED "OLP" (fig. 1 6, page 3)
lights up.
After it cools down, the inverter automatically switches back on.
When operating the inverter at a high load for lengthy periods, it is
advisable to start the engine in order to recharge the vehicle battery.
➤ Connect your consumer to the 230 V output (fig. 1 4, page 3).
You can also connect a socket distribution system.
