SPECIFICATIONS Model No Maximum Continuous Output Power Output Surge Capacity PWRINV8KW12V 8000W 16000W Modified Sine Wave phase corrected <1.5 A 90% 10-16V >17Vdc DC 10.5V+- 0.5V DC 10V+- 0.
No output voltage, voltage indicator in upper red zone. High input voltage Make sure that inverter is connected to 12V battery. Check regulation of charging system. ________________________________________________________ Low battery alarm Poor DC wiring, poor Use proper cable on all the time, battery condition. and make Solid voltage indicator connections. Use below 11V (12V ver.
X X X d.Bar graph meters: Displays battery voltage and current. Current should be in the green zone for continuous operation. The inverter will operate for several minutes when the current is in the yellow zone. Operation with battery voltage or current in the red zone of a meter will result in protective shutdown of inverter. e.AC outlet/AC Terminal block: Connect to AC "Terminal block" only when main power switch "a" is off .
The power inverter will also shut down if the input voltage exceed 16V (12V ver.). This protects the inverter against excessive input voltage. The voltage indicator will be in the upper red zone. Although the power inverter incorporates protection against overvoltage, it may still be damaged if the input voltage is allowed to exceed 20V (12V ver.). Troubleshooting 1.Common problems a.
5.Connect the cable from the positive terminal of inverter to the positive terminal of the power source. Make secure connection. Warning!You may observe a spark when you make this connection since current may flow to charge capacitors in the power inverter. Do not make this connection in the presence of flammable fumes, as explosion or fire may result. 6.Set the power switch to the on position.Check the meters and indicators on the front panel of the inverter.
Ideally, the voltage should remain in the green area of the bar graph. If the voltage goes into the red area at top or bottom of the graph, inverter may shut-down. 3.Battery current indicator The battery current bar graph indicates the current drawn from the battery by the power inverter, It will not indicate current by other loads also connected to the battery. For long term operation, the current should be in the green area of the bar graph.
The neutral (common)conductor of the power inverter AC output circuit is designed to connect to chassis ground.Therefore,when the chassis is connected to ground,the neutral conductor may also be connected to ground.This conforms to national electrical code requirements that separately derived AC sources (such as inverters and generators) have their neutral tied to ground in the same way that the neutral conductor from the the utility line is tied to ground at AC breaker panel.
