Overheating, Low Battery Protection | Xantrex Technology 400R

Introduction

Overheating

The XPower Powerpack is protected from overheating. If the inverter exceeds a safe temperature, power to the AC Outlet automatically shuts off.

Low Battery Protection

Low battery protection protects the internal battery from excessive discharge and possible damage. When the AC Outlet ON/OFF switch is turned on, an audible alarm alerts you when the internal battery is nearly discharged (11.0 V DC) and the unit turns off at 10.5 V DC.

Jump-Start Cables Safety Feature

The XPower Powerpack comes with a user-replaceable 250 A fuse to protect the unit and vehicle battery from damage through reverse polarity and short-circuit conditions.
