Warning
– Never remove the cover of the inverter! Do not self repair the inverter, no serviceable
parts are inside the unit.
No function
Check LED-Display to identify the reason.
According the failure indicated by the display see sections below to solve the
problem.
Check wiring for correct size, damage or loose screws.
Check batteries, battery fuse or fuse installed on AC-output.
If switch is in remote position but no remote cable is connected , switch it to the
„ON-Position“.
DC-Low voltage
The battery voltage dropped below 1.75V/Cell.
Check battery fuse.
Charge the battery – if charging is not solving the problem maybe the battery is
defect.
The wiring may be too thin or check installation for loose connections.
Note: If battery voltage rises above 2.1V/Cell, the inverter restarts automati-
cally.
DC-Over voltage
The battery voltage is above 2.55V/Cell.
Remove the battery charger and stop charging the battery.
Note: If battery voltage is dropping below 2.5V/Cell the inverter restarts auto-
matically.
Over temperature
If load is smaller than nominal power of inverter – check if ventilation of the
inverter is blocked. Maybe the ambient temperature is too high.
If load is exceeding nominal power of inverter – reduce the load.
Note: The inverter will switch on automatically if temperature of the inverter is
within normal operating temperature range.
Overload
Reduce load. Remove unnecessary consumers.
Reset the inverter with the front panel switch OFF than ON.
Other failures
Check system for correct grounding or contact your dealer.
V/Cell: The nominal voltage using lead acid batteries is 2VDC/Cell. Example: A 12V-Battery contains 6
single cells, a 24V-Battery contains 12 single cells etc.
