3. Introduction This power inverter series is a the member of the most advanced line of mobile AC power systems available. To get the most out of the power inverter, it must be installed and used properly. Please read the instructions in this manual before installation and operation this model. 3-1. Front Panel Operations： 3-1-1. Front view： P U R E S IN E W A V E IN V E R T E R 3-1-2. ON / OFF switch： Power ON / OFF switch, leave in the OFF position during installation. 3-1-3.
3-1-4. Load Level：Display AC Load Watts LED Status Load Condition Dark 0 ~ 30W Green Orange 30W ~ 200W 200W ~ 450W Red 450W ~ 580W Red Blink Over 580W 3-1-5.

3-2. Rear Panel Operations： DC INPUT WARNING: REVERSE POLARITY WILL DAMAGE UNIT NEG(-) POS(+) CHASSIS GROUND DC INPUT WARNING: REVERSE POLARITY REMOTE PORT WILL DAMAGE UNIT NEG(-) POS(+) CHASSIS GROUND 3-2-1. Remote ON / OFF switch for S600R model only. 3-2-1-1. In order for the Remote ON / OFF switch to operate inverter, ON / OFF switch on the Front Panel must be off. 3-2-1-2. Make sure the remote control contact is off. 3-2-1-3.
3-2-2. Ventilation window： Do not obstruct, allow at least 3 inch for proper air flow. 3-2-3. Input terminals： Connect to 12v / 24V / 48V battery or other 12V / 24V / 48V power source. 【＋】is positive,【－】is negative. Reverse polarity connection will blow internal fuse and may damage inverter permanently. WARNING! Do not connect the 12V model to a 24 battery, The unit will be destroyed immediately. 3-2-4. Chassis ground or to vehicle chassis using #8 AWG wire.
3-3. Installation： Where to install. The power inverter should be installed in a location that Meets the following requirements： 3-3-1. Dry – Do not allow water to drip or splash on the inverter. 3-3-2. Cool – Ambient air temperature should be between 0℃ and 33℃, the cooler the better. 3-3-3. Safe – Do not install in a battery compartment or other areas where flammable fumes may exist, such as fuel storage areas or engine compartments. 3-3-4.
3-4. Quick hook – up and testing： For a quick hook – up of the power inverter to check its performance before going ahead with installation, please follow these guidelines： 3-4-1. Unpack and inspect the power inverter to check its performance switch in the OFF position. 3-4-2. Connect the cables to the power input terminals on the rear panel of power inverter. The red terminal is positive (+) and black terminal is negative (-).
3-4-3. Before proceeding further, carefully check that cable you have connected does tie negative terminal of inverter to the negative output power source. CAUTION ! Reverse polarity connection will blow a fuse in inverter and may permanently damage the inverter. Damage caused by reverse polarity connection is not covered by warranty. 3-4-4. Connect the cable from the negative terminal of the inverter to the negative terminal of the power source. Make a secure connection. 3-4-5.
3-5. AC Safety Grounding： During the AC wiring installation, AC input and output ground wires are connected to the inverter. The AC input ground wire must connect to the incoming ground from your AC utility source. The AC output ground wire should go to the grounding point for your loads ( for example, a distribution panel ground bus ). 3-5-1. Neutral Grounding (GFCI’S)： 3-5-1-1.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI)： Installations in Recreational Vehicles (for North American approvals) will require GFCI protection of all branch circuit connected to the AC output of the hardwire terminal equipped Inverter. In addition, electrical codes require GFCI protection of certain receptacles in residential installations.
Increasing your DC cable size will help improve the situation. Cotek recommends the following cables for optimum inverter performance ( apply both 120V and 230V versions ) Model No Wire AWG Inline Fuse S600-112 #4 100A S600-212 #4 100A S600-124 #6 50A S600-224 #6 50A Also, use only high quality copper wiring and keep cable length short, a maximum of 3-6 feet.
3-7. Inverter Operation： To operate the power inverter, turn it on using the ON / OFF switch on the Front panel. The power inverter is now ready to deliver AC power to your loads. If you are operating several loads from the power inverter, turn them on separately after the inverter has been turned on. This will ensure that the power inverter does not have to deliver the starting currents for all the loads at once. 3-7-1.
4. Troubleshooting guide： WARNING! Do not open or disassemble the S600 Inverter. Attempting to service the unit yourself may result in a risk of electrical shock or fire. Problems and Symptoms Possible Cause No output voltage, ”FAULT" LED lights RED. Solutions a. Fault level light is blinked fast. Over input voltage. ( OVP ) Check input voltage. Reduce input voltage. b. Fault level light is blinked slowly. Low input voltage. ( UVP ) Recharge battery. Check connections and cable. c.
5. Maintenance： Very little maintenance is required to keep your inverter operating properly. You should clean the exterior of the unit periodically with a damp cloth to prevent accumulation of dust and dirt. At the same time, tighten the screws on the DC input terminals. 6. Warranty： We warrant this product against defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 24 months from the date of purchase and will repair or replace any defective Power Inverter when directly returned, postage paid, to us.
