OPERATION
does blow, turn off and disconnect the appliance or equipment from the inverter immediately, repair the related problem and replace the fuse(s). The internal fuses are replaceable, however only electronically knowledgeable people should attempt fuse replacement.
Note:
•Make certain to correct the source of the overload which caused the blown fuse before turning your inverter back ON (l).
The Power Source.
When the engine is off, most batteries will provide an ample power supply to the inverter for one to two hours. The actual length of time is a function of several variables including the age and condition of the battery and the power demand being placed on it by the equipment being operated with the inverter.
If you are using the inverter while the engine is off, we recommend you start the engine every hour and let it run for at least 10 minutes to recharge the battery. We also recommend that the device plugged into the inverter be turned off before turning over the engine.
Although it is not necessary to disconnect the inverter when turning over the engine, the inverter may momentarily cease operation as the battery voltage decreases. When the inverter is not supplying power, and is turned on, it draws very low amperage from the battery (<0.70 A ).
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
Automatic Shut Down & Related Safety Features.
Each inverter has an unique LED indicator warning light system which operates in conjunction with the automatic shut down feature. These indicator lights operate as follows:
GREEN LED: | System ready. |
RED LED: | System overload/automatic shut down. |
Your inverter will shut down automatically when any of the following problems occur:
1.The power input from the battery drops below 10 volts.
2.The power input from the battery exceeds
3.The continuous draw of the appliance or equipment being operated exceeds the design parameters of the inverter.
The inverters are also equipped with the following additional safety features:
1.Thermal Cut Off
Automatic shut down if internal temperature exceeds safe design parameters.
