Section 1: Features

Over-Current Protection When the AC loads connected to the Prosine inverter/charger exceed 50 amps, the inverter will instantaneously reduce the output voltage until the loads on the inverter are reduced. If the overload continues, the inverter will shut down. The unit will automatically restart after a calculated recovery time.

High-Temperature Shut Down When the inverter detects a high-temperature condition internally, the inverter will shut down. When the internal temperature cools by at least 6°C (11°F) the unit will automatically restart.

Audible Fault Alarm The Prosine inverter/charger features a user-enable audible alarm to alert you in the event of a fault condition. The audible alarm is accompanied by blinking LEDs (on the control panel) or by a fault code display (on the ACS control panel). There are four fault conditions at which the audible alarm will sound:

Battery high-voltage

Battery low-voltage

System over-temperature

Communication error or temporary fault

Visual Fault Code Display If an error occurs, the Prosine inverter/charger control panel will display an error code that you can use to determine the cause of the error. Three LEDs will flash on the standard control panel to describe the error. On the ACS control panel, the error code will be displayed on the LCD display. A table of fault codes and likely causes, along with corrective measures to take, is provided in “Appendix C: Troubleshooting”.
