voltage, Class 2, wiring code. The On/Off switch and in-line fuse to be purchased locally at an electrical supply outlet.

3.06.2A 3 Amp rated remote switch must be connected to the violet wire marked “Remote On/Off” coming out at front of the inverter. Connect the violet wire to the load side of the remote switch. The line side of the switch must be connected to the DC power source with a 3 Amp fuse within 18" of the source. The cable clamp strain relief should be used to secure the field wires.

3.06.3The switch should be mounted at a convenient location in a listed outlet box with approved strain relief. The in-line fuse to be mounted on appropriate fuse holder.

3.06.4NOTE: A remote switch, must be installed to operate the inverter. You may use several switches or relays in parallel in lieu of one remote switch.

3.07120 VAC Output

3.07.1CAUTION: Do not connect another source of AC power directly to the output of the inverter. This will result in damage to the inverter that is not covered under warranty!

3.07.2The 120 VAC output is provided at the GFCI protected female receptacle cord at- tached to the inverter.

4.START UP / OPERATION

4.01To operate the inverter turn the remote switch to “On”. Make sure that the output breaker is reset.

4.02Turn the switch to “Off” when the inverter is not in use.

5.TROUBLESHOOTING

5.01Airpax Dimensions Inc. offers free phone consultation concerning installation or troubleshoot- ing. Call the Customer Service Department at:

5.02If the inverter fails to operate correctly, use the following troubleshooting procedure.

5.02.1Connect a 100 watt light bulb to the inverter output.

5.02.2Make sure the inverter is turned "On", the output circuit breaker is reset and that the voltage is at least 12VDC, 24VDC or 48 VDC (depending on inverter model) at the DC input terminals. If not, check DC wiring connections and the line fuse.

5.02.3Check the connection to the remote switch, +12VDC, +24VDC or +48VDC must be present at the violet wire for the unit to operate. If not, check any in-line fuses in the +12VDC, +24 or +48 VDC remote switch circuit.

5.02.4Observe the fault indicating lights on the front of the inverter.

a)The Low battery light indicates a low battery condition. Switch the inverter “Off” for 5 seconds, then “On” again. The light coming on again indicates a fault in the battery wiring, battery capacity and voltage or the fuse.

b)The Overload light indicates an output wiring short circuit or a load that is too large for the power rating of the inverter. Switch the inverter “Off”, remove the short circuit or excessive load from the output, then switch the inverter back “On”.

c)The High temp. light indicates the inverter has overheated. The unit will automatically turn back on when it has cooled to 400C (1040F).

5.03If the above steps are completed and the inverter still will not operate satisfactorily call Airpax Dimensions, Inc. for a return authorization number.
