THIS MANUAL CONTAINS IMPORTANT SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE MAXX SSTTM COMPACT POWER INVERTER MODEL VEC054D.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY:

Follow these instructions and those published by battery manufacturer and the manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use with this unit. Review cautionary markings on these products and on engine.

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the VEC054D MAXX SSTTM Compact Power Inverter. Please read this Instruction Manual carefully before use to ensure optimum performance and to avoid damage to this product.

This Power Inverter is configured with the latest Soft Start Technology (SST) and supplies continuous power and peak watts in the form of 120 volt AC outlets to run most household or electronic appliances. Before introduction of SST, high start-up currents from large inductive loads could shut down an inverter. SST improves inverter operation by:

Gradual voltage ramp-up during inverter start-up, eliminating failed cold starts under load.

Output that momentarily dips in voltage and quickly recovers to allow large motorized loads to start, eliminating most shutdowns from momentary overloads.

Soft Start Technology, dramatically increases reliability and life of the product.

Added features include automatic shutdown and a low battery alarm to prevent damage to your battery.

FEATURES

On the front panel are two LED indicators. The green LED indicates power and proper operation of the inverter; the red LED indicates inverter shutdown from over-load or over-temperature condition, or abnormal input voltages. The ON/OFF Switch turns the inverter ON and OFF. The switch can also be used to force reset of inverter circuits by switching it OFF, then back ON again. All models also feature a port to attach a remote control (sold separately).

120 volt AC power is supplied through four North American three-prong type outlets. The outlets can accommodate either two- or three-pin AC plugs.

Maxx SST™ Features

Built-in Automatic Features include:

Overload and over-temperature shutdown activated if AC output exceeds rated watts

AC short-circuit shutdown

Low voltage audible alarm (sounds at 10.5 volts input)

Low-voltage shutdown (activates at 10.0 volts DC)

High-input voltage shutdown (activates at above 15.5 volts DC)

MAXX SST™ uses a 12 volt DC power source like those found in motor vehicles, or it can be operated using multiple battery configurations with commercial battery chargers or solar battery chargers. For most heavy-duty applications, a multiple battery configuration and the use of deep-cycle batteries is required.

When using multiple batteries, inverters can be operated from one of the vehicle 12 volt batteries, so there’s always one battery with adequate charge to start an engine.

MAXX SST™ includes a high-surge capability. This is required to start heavy loads, such as motors and other inductive devices.
