BUILT-IN PROTECTION
Your inverter monitors the following potentially hazardous conditions:
• LOW BATTERY VOLTAGE: this condition is not harmful to the inverter but could damage the power source.
An audible signal will sound when input voltage drops to 21.5V. The inverter automatically shuts down when imput voltage drop
to 21.5V. When the power source input voltage is above 21.5V the inverter may be restarted.
• OVER VOLTAGE PROTECTION: the inverter will automatically shut down when the imput voltage exceeds30 V DC.
• SHORT CIRCUIT PROTECTION: the inverter will shut down. Remove the short circuit and the inverter will reset.
• OVERLOAD PROTECTION: the inverter will automatically shut down when the continuous power consumptions over the rated
Max power output.
• OVERHEATING PROTECTION: when the temperature sensor inside the inverter reaches 65°C, the unit will automatically shut down.
In this instance, allow at least 15 minutes before attempting to restart the inverter and always disconnect appliances.
• LOW BATTERY ALARM: the alarm will sound if the input voltage drops below 21,5V, this is an indication that the battery needs
to be recharged.
Users should discontinue operation of the appliance(s) at this point, as the inverter will shut down shortly after
the alarm sound. The vehicle engine should be started to recharge the battery. If the low battery alarm sounds when the battery is
fully charged follow the steps for solving lack of output power in the troubleshooting guide.
The alarm will sound if the inverter is overloaded, overheated or if there is an eccessive voltage drop between the battery and
inverter.
NOTE: It is normal for the alarm to sound while the unit is being connected to, or disconnected from the power source, this is not
indicative of a problem.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
TROUBLE
No AC output red LED lit
No Ac output
No AC output green LED not lit
Low battery alarm sounds continuosly
Low battery alarm sounds
Motorised power tool won't start
Motorised power tool does not
operate at correct speed
Television / Radio
interference
FUSE REPLACEMENT
If the external fuse blows (or breakers trip), then there is a short circuit or overload in the DC wiring.
Find and rectify the problem before replacing the fuse and reconnect the inverter.
Output connection: Universal European household type socket.
Output voltage: 220-240v AC (RMS)
Output waveform: Pure Sine Wave
Input voltage range: 22 to 30V DC
Low voltage alarm: Approx 21.5V DC
Low voltage shut down: Approx 21V DC
Input cables: Cigarette lighter plug or battery clip cable.
Additional protective features: Overload, overheat and over voltage.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•
DC input below 21,5 Volts
•
Excessive appliance load
thermal shutdown
Inverter is cold
Inverter fuses open
Bad connection or wiring
Low battery voltage
Excessive start up load
Purely inductive load
Snow in picture,
buzz in speaker
Operation Manual
SUGGESTED REMEDY
1. Recharge or replace battery.
2. Reduce load - wait for inverter to cool.
Turn off, then turn on.
Disconnect load from inverter.
Operate inverter without load for a few minutes.
Reconnect load.
Open fuse caps in back of inverter.
Remove fuses and replace with same type and rating.
Tighten all DC connections.
Recharge battery. Remove load
from inverter while recharging battery.
If appliance does not start, then appliance is drawing
excessive wattage and will not work with inverter
Make the load not purely inductive.
Operate an incandescent lamp at same time as motor.
Keep inverter and antenna distant from each other.
Use shielded antenna cable.
Connect antenna to amplifier.
