MCX/ICX INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL Introduction 1.0 Thank you for purchasing the finest sine-wave inverter in the power conversion industry. Exeltech’s journey to excellence includes the first affordable sine wave inverter, first modular inverter system, first N+1 redundant inverter system, and the cleanest sine wave output in the industry. Exeltech strives to manufacture products of the highest possible quality, and is dedicated to 100% customer satisfaction.
MCX/ICX INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL The EXELTECH MCX/ICX Inverter/Charger has 1000 Watts of rated DC power available to keep your batteries charged to their optimum level, when power to run your critical load is available from a primary source. However, when the primary source is interrupted, your EXELTECH MCX/ICX stands ready to deliver 2000 Watts of rated power, and 4000 Watts of surge power within 4mS.
MCX/ICX INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL supply it’s peak current to the load for 3 seconds then it will scale back to it’s rated current for an additional 4 seconds. If the short is not cleared within that 7 seconds the inverter will shut off requiring the user to cycle the power button to turn it back on. Exeltech’s inverters can output their full rated power continuously at 30° C (86° F). The inverter is derated 20% of its full power for every 10° C over 30° C. IE; 80% of normal .
MCX/ICX INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL EXTERNAL THERMISTOR: Supplied with unit and a required part. It is able to sense the temperature of a battery when charging. The “Float Voltage” will be automatically adjusted in order to avoid overcharging a hot battery. . BAD BATTERY PROTECTION: Will shut down the charging function of the MCX/ICX if there is to much resistance between the positive and negative battery connection indicating that the battery is bad or that there is a bad connection. .
MCX/ICX INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL OVER TEMPERATURE PROTECTION: The inverter is also protected against overheating. It will provide its full rated output up to the temperature listed in the specification sheet. If it is subjected to higher ambient temperatures or air circulation is blocked, the inverter may overheat. If the LOWBATT/THERM buzzer sounds, immediate action is required or the inverter will shut down. Either reduce load, or provide more cooling in the immediate environment.
MCX/ICX INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL allowed, the inverter shuts off (flashing red indicator). * LED will be red in overload and /or short circuit conditions.
MCX/ICX INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL Installation 3.0 CAUTION: It is essential to read and understand all Warnings, Cautions, and Notes before any connections are made to the unit or system. If further assistance is needed call (817) 595-4969 and ask . for Customer Service. WARNING: The inverter is designed to operate from a Battery. Performance cannot be guaranteed, and damage can result when a . charger or power supply is used without a battery in the circuit.
MCX/ICX INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL INSTALLATION (Location) . Mounting location is critical to performance and life span of the inverter. Heat and moisture are the two worst enemies of any electronic device. Therefore, when choosing a mounting location, consider the following requirements listed in order of importance: 1. Inverter must be sheltered from the elements. Select a clean, dry . location. 2. Inverter requires adequate ventilation for cooling.
MCX/ICX INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL Operation 4.0 TURN ON INVERTER: . MCX/ICX: Turn inverter on using Toggle Switch on Front Panel, or the "REMOTE" switch if installed. LED next to the switch will illuminate, indicating the inverter is operational. . Note: If using "REMOTE" switch, the Front Panel Switch must be off. (If either switch is "on", the inverter will turn on. Both switches must be off for the inverter to turn off.) . TURN ON APPLIANCE/LOAD: . 1.
