THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW

The optional Fleet Power Remote Control Panel provides a power switch, system status LEDs, DC Volts and DC Amps LED bargraphs. On the back of the remote is a set of dip switches which allow adjust- ment of the following:

Manual Initiation of Equalize Charging

Ambient Battery Temperature

Battery Type

Charger Mode (Auto or Controlled)

Power Sharing

Circuit Breaker Protection

Fleet Power Inverter/Chargers are circuit breaker protected.

The Fleet Power 1000 has a 12 Amp INV/CHG circuit breaker on the front of the unit that protects against sustained inverter overloads over 1440 watts and the AC input to the battery charger. The 15 Amp INPUT circuit breaker on the unit protects the incoming AC circuit which is transferred through to the loads via the GFCI.

The Fleet Power 2000 has a 25 Amp INV/CHG circuit breaker that protects against sustained inverter overloads over 3000 watts and the AC input to the battery charger. .

The Fleet Power 2500 has a 30 Amp OUTPUT circuit breaker on the unit that protects against sustained inverter over- loads over 3600 watts. The 30 Amp circuit breaker protects the incoming AC leg which

on the units protect the incoming AC circuit which is transferred through to the loads connected by the hardwire output.

The 15 Amp circuit breaker protects the GFCI outlet on the Fleet Power 1000 and 2000 models. When a circuit breaker trips, the circuit breaker is reset by pushing the button back in.

Electronic Protection

Fast acting electronic circuits protect the inverter from extreme overloads and short circuits. Other protection includes a low and high battery cutoff and automatic shutdown if over temperature occurs. The fault condition must be eliminated before reset will occur. Example: remove over- load, recharge batteries or allow to cool. Reset by cycling the power switch OFF/ON.

Power Sharing

When connected to shorepower or using a generator, the battery charger and transfer functions are engaged. A unique power sharing feature automatically reduces the AC consumption of the battery charger allowing necessary AC power to the load. This prevents the circuit breaker from trip- ping. This feature can be adjusted using the remote control panel. This feature is set at the transfer rating of each unit by default.
