Xantrex Technology PROsine 2.0 user manual Input Voltage

Operation

you have problems starting certain loads, ensure that the battery connections are solid, the DC cabling is short and of sufficient size, the AC wiring is of sufficient size, and the battery is of sufficient capacity and is fully charged.

As with all inverters, the amount of continuous power that the PROsine can deliver without overheating is limited by the ambient air temperature. It will operate and deliver its continuous power rating at higher temperatures, but the ambient temperature as well as the input voltage from the battery limits the extent to which it can do this. Operating the PROsine in conditions outside the power and temperature limits will result in thermal shutdown and/or significantly decreased performance. In addition, operation in this range is outside the ratings covered by the regulatory approvals of the product. (See page A–6.)

Input Voltage

The input voltage limits are shown in Table 5-1

.

Table 5-1PROsine Operating Voltage Limits

	Voltage
Operating Condition	Range	Comment
Normal	10V–16V
Peak Performance	12V–16V
High Voltage Alarm	≥15.5V
Unit Shuts Down	≥16V	Protects inverter against excessive input voltage.
Low Voltage Alarm	≤10.5V
Unit Shuts Down	≤10.0V	Protects battery from being over-discharged.
Unit Restarts	≥12.5V	The PROsine will not restart unless input voltage exceeds 12.5V or the
		inverter is turned ON manually with the DISABLE/ENABLE switch. If
		the inverter is already enabled (STANDBY LED is on), move the switch to
		DISABLE to turn the inverter OFF, and then move it to ENABLE again to
		restart the inverter (as long as the battery voltage is between 10–16 volts).
