Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

This manual contains important instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation, operation and storage of all Tripp Lite Inverter/Chargers.

Location Warnings

•Although your Inverter/Charger is moisture resistant, it is NOT waterproof. Flooding the unit with water will cause it to short circuit and could cause personal injury due to electric shock. Never immerse the unit, and avoid any area where standing water might accumulate. Mounting should be in the driest location available.

•Leave a minimum of 2" clearance at front and back of the Inverter/Charger for proper ventilation. To avoid automatic Inverter/Charger shutdown due to overtemperature, any compartment that contains the Inverter/Charger must be properly ventilated with adequate outside air flow. The heavier the load of connected equipment, the more heat will be generated by the unit.

•Do not install the Inverter/Charger directly near magnetic storage media, as this may result in data corruption.

•Do not install near flammable materials, fuel or chemicals.

•Do not mount unit with its front or rear panel facing down (at any angle). Mounting in this manner will seriously inhibit the unit's internal cooling, eventually causing product damage not covered under warranty.

Battery Connection Warnings

•Multiple battery systems must be comprised of batteries of identical voltage, age, amp-hour capacity and type.

•Because explosive hydrogen gas can accumulate near batteries if they are not kept well ventilated, your batteries should not be installed (whether for a mobile or stationary application) in a “dead air” compartment. Ideally, any compartment would have some ventilation to outside air.

•Sparks may result during final battery connection. Always observe proper polarity as batteries are connected.

•Do not allow objects to contact the two DC input terminals. Do not short or bridge these terminals together. Serious personal injury or property damage could result.

Equipment Connection Warnings

Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can reasonably be expected to cause the fail- ure of the life support equipment or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended. Do not use this equip- ment in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen or nitrous oxide.

•You may experience uneven performance results if you connect a surge suppressor, line conditioner or UPS system to the output of the Inverter/Charger.

•Corded Models: Do not modify the Inverter/Charger’s plug or receptacle in a way that eliminates its ground connection. Do not use power adapters that will eliminate the plug’s ground connection.

•Connect your Inverter/Charger only to a properly grounded AC power outlet or hardwired source. Do not plug the unit into itself; this will damage the device and void your warranty.

•Tripp Lite recommends wiring hardwired AC output to a GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) protector.

•The main grounding lug should be connected to the vehicle chassis with a minimum #8 AWG wire.

Operation Warnings

•Your Inverter/Charger does not require routine maintenance. Do not open the device for any reason. There are no user serviceable parts inside.

•Potentially lethal voltages exist within the Inverter/Charger as long as the battery supply and/or AC input are connected. During any service work, the battery supply and AC input connection (if any) should therefore be disconnected.

•Do not connect or disconnect batteries while the Inverter/Charger is operating in either inverting or charging mode. Operating Mode Switch should be in the DC OFF position. Dangerous arcing may result.

Caution: These models have a failsafe AC pass-through feature where the AC output will be live (if AC input is available) even though the operating mode switch is set to DC OFF.
