Schumacher Fastening the PSI-2000 to a flat surface, Inverter Features, Grounding the PSI-2000

B.fastening the PSI-2000 to a flat surface

For convenience, the PSI-2000 can be fastened to a flat surface, horizontally or vertically. The area where the inverter is to be fastened must be dry, well ven- tilated and away from any combustible products or fumes.

1.Turn off the PSI-2000.

2.Place the back of the PSI-2000 with the mounting bracket against a secure and flat surface.

3.Attach the inverter to the flat surface using corrosion resistant screws.

Inverter Features:

A. ON/OFF Rocker Switch – Turns inverter on and off.

B.LED Indicator Light – (Green = power ON, Red = Overload, interruption in power).

C.Two, 110V GFCI AC Outlets

D.Two Pairs, 12-Volt Power Cords

E.Two, High Speed Cooling Fans – keeps inverter cool. The speed of the fan is faster as the load increases. Fan does not run when inverter turned off.

F.Analogic Output Power Display - shows 110V AC continuous power consumed.

G.Two, Positive Batter y Cable Terminals (Red) – accepts positive connector cable.

H.Two, Negative Battery Cable Terminals (Black) – accepts negative connector cable.

I.Ground Terminal – grounds inverter to reduce electrical shock.

C. grounding the PSI-2000

To avoid electrical shock, it is neces- sary to ground the PSI-2000 Inverter as well as the device powering it. The inverter should be grounded using #8 AWG copper wire (not included).

Note: Do not turn on the inverter or the power source until the inverter and the power source are grounded.

1.Turn off the PSI-2000.

2.Locate the chassis ground screw underneath the negative terminal on the left side of the inverter. Unscrew the two hex nuts and one washer.

3.Strip the insulation of the wire back 1.5 inches and in between the two washers, wrap the bare end of the #8 AWG copper wires around the threaded screw extension.

4.Holding the wire in place, screw the hex nut on the threaded screw extension and then screw on the last hex nut to secure the wire connection.

5.Using the other washer and hex nut, secure the opposite end of the wire and attach it appropriately so the inverter is grounded correctly.

a.Vehicle – connect to the chassis or unpainted frame part or engine block of vehicle.

b.Boat – connect to boat grounding system.

c.Fixed location – connect to a ground rod or other appropriately rated ground.
