Mounting (Optional*)

*Recommended for all Vehicular and Marine Applications

Due to their size and weight, the PowerVerter Plus systems in this manual should be mounted directly to a rigid horizontal surface, mounting plate or bracket before battery connection. User must supply all fasteners and brackets. Turn your PowerVerter and connected equipment OFF before mounting.

Mounting for the PV 500FC or PV 1000FC (See Diagram 1, p. 17)

•Install four 5mm (#8) fasteners (A) into a rigid horizontal surface using the measurements in the diagram. Leave the heads of the fasteners raised slightly above the surface in order to engage the keyhole slots molded into the bottom of the PowerVerter's feet.

•Place keyhole slots in the PowerVerter's four feet over the four fasteners and slide the PowerVerter forward or backward to secure it. Install an "L"-shaped brackets (B) as shown to permanently hold the PowerVerter in position.

Mounting for the PV 2000FC or 2400FC (See Diagram 2, p. 17)

•Install two 8 mm (1/4 in.) fasteners (A) into a rigid horizontal surface using the measurements in the diagram. (Leave the heads of fasteners raised slightly above the horizontal surface in order to engage the slots in the PowerVerter's two front feet.)

•Slide PowerVerter forward to fully engage the fasteners in the PowerVerter's front feet. Install two 8 mm (1/4 in.) fasteners (B) into the horizontal surface, through the slots in the Power- Verter's two rear feet. Tighten the screws to permanently hold your PowerVerter in position.

Splash Guard (PV 500FC and PV 1000FC Models Only)

(Optional; Recommended for all Marine Applications)

When adding a splash guard to a PowerVerter for use in a damp environment, spacers must be used to maintain a proper ventilation for the inverter. User must supply splash guard, screws and spacers. Turn your PowerVerter and connected equipment OFF before mounting.

Adding a Splash Guard for the PV 500FC or PV 1000FC (See Diagram 3, p. 17)

•Thread four 4mm (#8) sheet metal screws (A) through four holes in a rigid horizontal splash guard (B) measuring 175 mm x 225 mm, through four 25mm long hollow spacers (C) and into the four blind holes in the top panel of your PowerVerter.
