With proper care and appropriate usage, it will give you years of dependable service in your car, truck, rv or boat. The maxx350sst supplies 350 watts of continuous pow...
5 outlets accommodate either two or three pin ac plugs. An on/off switch turns the inverter circuitry on and off. The switch is used to force reset of inverter circuits if it is switched off, then on. Figure 1 figure 2 3. How your vector inverter works the inverter converts low voltage dc (direct cu...
6 6 3.2 the maxx 350sst output waveform the ac output waveform of the maxx350sst is known as “modified sine wave”. It is a waveform that has characteristics similar to the sine wave shape of utility power. This type of waveform is suitable for most ac loads, including linear and switching power supp...
7 caution: the maxx 350sst must be connected only to batteries with a nominal output voltage of 12 volts. The unit will not operate from a 6 volt battery and will sustain permanent damage if connected to a 24 volt battery. 4.2 connection to power source the maxx350sst comes equipped with a cigarette...
8 8 4. Check to be sure that all connections between battery clips and terminals are secure.
