Introduction
Thank you for purchasing this inverter. This simple inverter is designed to
power your home appliances or precious 3C electronics. It also can handle
motor-type loads with high surge power such as vacuums, small freezers, or
drills.
This manual is for qualified personnel. The tasks described in this manual may
be performed by qualified personnel only.
Important Safety Warning (SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS)
Before using the inverter, please read all instructions and cautionary
markings on the unit, this manual and the batteries.
Conventions used:
WARNING! Warnings identify conditions or practices that could result in
personal injury;
CAUTION! Caution identify conditions or practices that could result in
damaged to the unit or other equipment connected.
General Precaution-
CAUTION! The unit is designed for indoor use. Do not expose this unit to
rain, snow or liquids of any type.
CAUTION! To reduce risk of injury, only use qualified batteries from
qualified distributors or manufacturers.
Any unqualified batteries may cause damage and injury. Do NOT use old or
overdue batteries. Please check the battery type and date code before
installation to avoid damage and injury.
CAUTION! Authorized service personnel should reduce the risk of
electrical shock by disconnecting AC, DC and battery power from the inverter
before attempting any maintenance or cleaning or working on any circuits
connected to the inverter. Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.
Internal capacitors can remain charged for 5 minutes after disconnecting all
sources of power.
CAUTION! Do not disassemble this inverter yourself. It contains no user-
serviceable parts. Attempt to service this inverter yourself may cause a risk
of electrical shock or fire and will void the warranty from the Manufacturer.
CAUTION! To avoid a risk of fire and electric shock, make sure that
existing wiring is in good condition and that the wire is not undersized. Do
not operate the Inverter with damaged or substandard wiring.
CAUTION! To reduce risk of fire hazard, do not cover or obstruct the
cooling fan.
CAUTION! Do not operate the inverter if it has received a sharp blow,
been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way. If the inverter is damaged,
called for an RMA (Return Material Authorization).
WARNING: There are no user-replaceable parts inside of the inverter. Do
not attempt to service the unit yourself.
WARNING! It’s very important for system safety and efficient operation to
use appropriate external battery cable. To reduce risk of injury, external
battery cables should be UL certified and rated for 105°C or higher. And do
not use copper cables less than 6AWG or 10AWG*2.
CAUTION! Do not disassemble the inverter. Contact with the qualified
service center when service or repair is required.
WARNING! Provide ventilation to outdoors from the battery compartment.
The battery enclosure should be designed to prevent accumulation and
concentration of hydrogen gas at the top of the compartment.
CAUTION! Use insulated tools to reduce the chance of short-circuit when
installing or working with the inverter, the batteries, or other equipment
attached to this unit.
CAUTION! For battery installation and maintenance, read the battery
manufacturer’s installation and maintenance instructions prior to operating.
Personnel Precaution –
CAUTION! Careful to reduce the risk or dropping a metal tool on the
batteries. It could spark or short circuit the batteries and could cause an
explosion.
CAUTION! Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces,
and watches when working with batteries. Batteries can produce a short circuit
current high enough to make metal melt, and could cause severe burns.
CAUTION! Avoid touching eyes while working near batteries.
CAUTION! Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid
contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.
CAUTION! NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of a battery.
CAUTION! If a remote or automatic generator start system is used, disable
the automatic starting circuit or disconnect the generator to prevent accident
during servicing.
