7.Should a defective battery charging system cause the battery voltage to rise to dangerously high levels, the XPower 450 will automatically shut down. The red “FAULT” light will turn on.
INVERTER DAMAGE
Although the XPower 450 incorporates protection against
Failure to follow these instructions can damage the unit and/or damage other equipment.
8.The cooling fan on the unit is designed to operate only when output power is greater than approximately 50 W. When inverter is turned on, the fan may operate momentarily.
9.In the event of an overload, low battery voltage or overheating, the XPower 450 will automatically shut down.
Battery operating time
Operating time will vary depending on the charge level of the battery, its capacity and the power level drawn by the particular AC load. With a typical boat battery (60 Ah) and a 100 W load (such as a small TV), an operating time of 2 to 3 hours or more can be expected.
When using a boat battery as a power source, it is strongly recommended to start the boat every hour or two to recharge the battery before its capacity drops too low. The XPower 450 can operate while the engine is
