Introduction

Ease of Use

Superior features and rugged durability have been combined with ease of use:

•The unit is compact, light weight, and easy to install.

•You can power loads directly from the dual GFCI-protected AC receptacles on the front panel.

•Easy-to-read digital display on the front panel lets you monitor system performance at a glance.

•The optional PROwatt Remote Panel lets you control the inverter from a convenient location—up to 25 feet (7.6 m) away—while the inverter itself is mounted out of sight and close to the batteries.

•A convenient USB port powers most modern electronic products.

Comprehensive Protection

The PROwatt SW Inverter is equipped with the following protection features:

GFCI protection	De-energizes the AC circuits and thereby
	protects the user from electric shock if a ground
	fault occurs.
Low battery voltage	Alerts you if the battery has become discharged
alarm	to 11 V or lower.

Low battery voltage	Automatically shuts the inverter down if the
shutdown	battery voltage drops below 10.5 V. This feature
	protects the battery from being completely
	discharged. Within five minutes after
	shutdown, the unit recovers automatically once
	the battery voltage reaches above 11.5 Vdc.
	After five minutes, the unit turns itself off.
High battery voltage	Shuts the inverter down automatically if the
shutdown	input voltage rises to more than 15.5 V. Within
	five minutes after shutdown, the unit recovers
	automatically once the battery voltage falls
	below 15.5 Vdc. After five minutes, the unit
	turns itself off.
AC output overload	Shuts the unit down automatically if a short
shutdown	circuit occurs or if the loads attached to the
	inverter exceed the operating limits.
Over temperature	Turns the inverter off if its temperature rises
shutdown	above an acceptable level. Within five minutes
	after shutdown, the unit recovers automatically
	once the temperature of the unit cools down.
	After five minutes of operating in high
	temperature, the unit turns itself off.
