Product Usage Instructions

Installation

1. Ensure the inverter is placed in a well-ventilated area with sufficient clearance for heat dissipation.
2. Connect the inverter to the appropriate power source based on the model and voltage requirements.
3. Follow the provided wiring diagram to connect the inverter to the battery bank securely.

Operation

1. Turn on the inverter using the power switch located on the device.
2. Monitor the AC output to ensure it is within the specified voltage range.
3. In case of any abnormal operation or error codes, refer to the user manual for troubleshooting steps.

Maintenance

1. Regularly inspect the inverter for any signs of damage or loose connections.
2. Clean the exterior of the inverter using a soft cloth and mild detergent if necessary.
3. Check and tighten the terminal connections periodically to prevent voltage drop issues.

FAQ

• Q: How can I determine the appropriate model for my power requirements?
• A: You should assess your power needs in watts and choose a model that can handle your peak power consumption comfortably. Refer to the specifications for guidance.
• Q: What should I do if the inverter overheats during operation?
• A : Immediately turn off the inverter and allow it to cool down before attempting to use it again. Check for any obstructions to airflow around the inverter.
• Q: Can I connect multiple devices to the inverter simultaneously?
• A: Yes, but ensure that the total power consumption of all connected devices does not exceed the rated output of the inverter to avoid overloading.

Introduction

• Superior Industrial Grade
• Remote Control via Dry-Contact
• Industry-Leading Safety, Low-Noise, High Performance
• Fanless Convection Cooling

Since 1993 the name Morningstar has been synonymous with industry-leading charge controllers, used in mission-critical applications around the world. With that heritage and reputation, “Morningstar of Inverters” has a very high bar to meet. The new SureSine line was conceived for exactly that reason: meeting customer requests for a Morningstar inverter that’s equal to the quality and performance of our charge controllers. These new models are more than up to that task.

Product Model Number Guide

Here’s what the different letters and numbers represent in our SureSine Model Number, using an example of a SureSine inverter rated for 150W and 12 volt batteries with 120 volt AC output at 60 Hertz with a Type B AC output receptacle.

AC options include:

• Hard-wire terminals for all markets and power levels
• Type B for North America 150, 300, and 700W versions
• Universal for International 150, 300, and 700W versions

Wireless Android and iOS utility apps included for set-up and monitoring with remote devices With over 1,600 off-grid inverters* already on the market from our competitors, we had to make sure that our six new ones raised the bar. Meet the result.
Our new SureSine inverters start with the industrial-grade “overbuild” quality and precision engineering that made Morningstar the industry leader in off- grid solar over the past three decades. Next, we added our customers’ wish list of inverter features and technologies. Finally, we designed the performance and safety needed to achieve industry-leading NRTL conformance certifications— unique in this class of inverters. SureSine is the inverter line our customers asked us to build. And our competitors will wish we hadn’t. Multiple DC/AC configurations mean there’s a SureSine ideal for your next project.
