INTRODUCTION

Keep this manual and the System Installation Guide in the folder mounted inside the unit.

This unit is a microprocessor controlled PWM (Pulse Width Modulated) pure sine wave based DC to AC power inverter utilizing MOSFET technology. It integrates a fully automatic 3-rate battery charger, a solid-state transfer system, control circuitry, self testing and recording digital meter display, and maintenance free sealed lead calcium type batteries. The system components are carefully matched to make the unit a completely self-contained, fully automatic standby power source for operation on all types of lighting loads. The batteries are sized and tested per UL-924 and Life Safety Code ANSI / NFPA 101, providing emergency power for a minimum of 90 minutes.

If the duration of a power failure is greater than the batteries storage capability, the inverter will automatically shut down when the battery voltage reaches 85% of the nominal DC voltage. This feature protects the battery from being permanently damaged from a deep discharge that could cause cell reversal. This battery protection feature is called "Low Voltage Disconnect" or L.V.D.

When the AC power is restored after a full discharge, the system will be ready for another power failure within 24hrs. If another power failure occurs before the 24-hour recharge time, the run time will be decreased.

The front panel display incorporates an alphanumeric 2x20 LCD character display, LED status indicators and a 4 x 4 keypad. All user interface functions are available from the front panel assembly.

Utilizing a small footprint, this unit is for use with any lighting load including quartz, HID, incandescent, fluorescent and halogen.
