AC Anywhere Power Inverter (Class II product) F5C412uk140W F5C412uk300W User Manual F5C412uk140W, F5C412uk300W Please read the installation and operations instructions before using the Power Inverters
AC Anywhere – Instructions and Information: Belkin Components manufactures a line of DC to AC Inverters with 140 and 300-Watt capacities. These Inverters offer advanced technology, dependable operation and will provide years of reliable service when used in accordance with our operating instructions. Belkin’s Inverters convert low voltage, direct (DC) current to 240 volts alternating (AC) household current.
Troubleshooting: Problem: Solution: Equipment has a high start-up surge. Turn Inverter power switch OFF (O) and then ON (I) again until the Inverter powers your device. Repeat as necessary to get your device running. Automotive system requires ignition to be on. Turn ignition key to accessory position. Battery voltage below 10 volts. Recharge or replace battery. Equipment being operated draws too much power. Use a higher capacity Inverter or do not use this equipment.
To connect the Belkin 300-Watt Inverter directly to the 12-volt power source (battery), follow the steps as outlined below: 1. Push the adapter plug leading from the Inverter firmly into the Direct-Connect Cable socket. 2. Properly identify the positive (red) and negative (black) terminals on the 12-volt power source and make certain that the terminals are clean and dry. 3.
Installation: Power Source Requirements The power source must provides 12 Volts DC and must be able to supply the necessary current to operate the load. The power source may be a battery or a well-regulated 12V DC power supply. As a rough guideline, divide the power consumption of the load (in watt) by 12 (the input voltage) to obtain the current (in amperes) the power source must deliver. Example: Load is rated at 120 Watts; the power source must be able to deliver: (220/12) = 18.
The Power Source: When the engine is off, most batteries will provide an ample power supply to the Inverter for one to two hours. The actual length of time is a function of several variables including the age and condition of the battery, and the power demand being placed on it by the equipment being operated. If you are using the Inverter while the engine is off, we recommend you start the engine every hour and let it run for approximately 10 minutes to recharge the battery.
Additional Safety Features: 1. Automatic shutdown when the internal circuit temperature exceeds standard design parameters for safe operation. 2. Continuous audible alarm: a. When the input power from the 12-volt power source drops to 11 volts. b. When the internal circuit temperature exceeds standard design parameters for safe operation.
CAUTION: Applicable only for the : F5C412uk300w FOR USE WITH CIGARETTE LIGHTER PLUG: WARNING: If more than 150 Watts of AC power are required from the Inverter, DO NOT connect the Inverter through the vehicle’s cigarette lighter socket. THIS WILL OVERHEAT THE WIRES AND COULD CAUSE A FIRE. When using the devices that require a TOTAL of 150 Watts or more, connect the Inverter directly to the vehicle’s battery terminals using the provided Battery Clip. 1.
CONNECTION TO 12V BATTERY USING BATTERY CLIPS 1. Insert the Inverter’s Cigarette Lighter Plug into the socket on the Battery Clip Connection Cable. 2. Connect the Red (+) Battery Clip to 12V battery’s red (+) terminal. Connect the Black (-) Battery Clip to the battery’s black (-) terminal. 3. Turn Inverter “ON”. If the LED Status Light on Inverter illuminates GREEN, the unit is functioning properly. If the LED Status Light n the Inverter illuminates RED, turn unit off immediately and check all connections.
