1. GENERAL
1.01 Dimensions inverters have been de-
signed and manufactured for many user applica-
tions and long life. They utilize patented construc-
tion methods and high technology electronic parts
and circuitry.
1.02
CAUTION:Inverters produce hazardous
voltages, to avoid risk of harm or fire the unit must
be properly installed. There are no user serviceable
parts inside, do not remove the cover.
CAUTION: The inverter should not be mounted
in a location that may be exposed to rain or spray.
CAUTION: The inverter should not be installed in
a zero clearance enclosure.
CAUTION: Damage to the inverter will occur if
correct polarity is not observed when installing the
DC input cables.
CAUTION: Damage to the inverter will occur if an
external AC power source is applied to the inverter’s
AC output or its hardwire output.
CAUTION: The inverter contains a circuit
breaker
and capacitor that may produce a spark. Do not
mount in a confined battery or gas compart-
ment.
CAUTION: Working in the vicinity of lead-acid
batteries is dangerous. Batteries generate explo-
sive gases during operation. There is a risk of
acid exposure. There is also a risk of high current
discharge from shorting the battery that can
cause fire and explosion.
CAUTION: Be sure the inverter and, if used, the
external AC input circuit breaker or fuse are
turned "OFF" during installation.
2. DESCRIPTION
Inverter Rating
Inverter Input Output
Model (VDC) (ADC) (VAC) (Watts)
12/1800N 12.6 Up to 180 120 1800
12/2400N 12.6 Up to 240 120 2400
12/3000N 12.6 Up to 300 120 3000
12/3600N 12.6 Up to 360 120 3600
2.01 The inverter converts 12 VDC to 120 VAC,
60 HZ, having a pure-sine wave form.
2.02 The inverter has internal protection
against output short circuit, output overload
and high temperature conditions. Also, there is
a thermally controlled cooling fan.
2.03 The inverter is designed to operate any
120 VAC, 60 HZ single phase appliance, equipment
or tool within its power ratings.
2.04 The battery charger ("B1" option) has
sophisticated, patented recharge detection cir-
cuitry to ensure complete battery charging. It is
fully automatic and regulated, and is temperature
compensated.
