GPSW-600/1500 ___________________________________________________________ 3.2 Rear View GPSW-1500 Warning! Operation of the inverter without a proper ground connection may result in an electrical safety hazard. a) Ventilation ports: Do not obstruct, allow at least 1 inch for air flow. b) Battery terminals: Connect to 12V / 24V battery or other 12V / 24V power source. [+] is positive [ - ] is negative. Reverse polarity connection will blow the internal fuse and may damage inverter permanently.
GPSW-600/1500 ___________________________________________________________ 3.3 Front View GPSW-600 a) ON / OFF switch: Power ON/OFF switch, leave in the OFF position during installation. b) Ventilation ports: Do not obstruct, allow at least 1 inch for air flow. c) Load Level: Display AC load watts, green indicates normal operation and red indicates high load levels. d) Fault e) Frequency f) Input Level: Display input voltage, green indicates normal operation and red indicates low battery level.
GPSW-600/1500 ___________________________________________________________ 3.4 Rear View GPSW-600 Warning! Operation of the inverter without a proper ground connection may result in an electrical safety hazard. a) Ventilation port: Do not obstruct, allow at least 1 inch for air flow b) Battery terminals: Connect to 12V battery or other 12V power source. [+] is positive [-] is negative. Reverse polarity connection will blow the internal fuse and may damage inverter permanently.
GPSW-600/1500 ___________________________________________________________ 4.0 Installation 4.1 Where to install The power inverter should be installed in a location that meets the following requirements: a) Dry - Do not allow water to drip or splash on the inverter. b) Cool - Ambient air temperature should be between 0°C and 40°C (the cooler the better). c) Ventilated - Allow at least two inches of clearance around the inverter for air flow.
GPSW-600/1500 ___________________________________________________________ 6. Connect the cable from the positive terminal of inverter to the positive terminal of the battery. Make a secure connection. 7. Set the power switch to the ON position. Check the meters and indicators on the front panel of the inverter. The voltage indicator should indicate 12 to 14 volts depending on the voltage of the power source. If it is does not, check your battery bank and the connections to the inverter. 8.
GPSW-600/1500 ___________________________________________________________ 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 utility line is tied to ground at AC breaker panel. Caution! The negative DC input of the power inverter is connected to the chassis. Do not install the power inverter in a positive ground DC system.
GPSW-600/1500 ___________________________________________________________ 5.4 Resetting Faults Any of the inverters protection faults can be re-set by turning the inverter off for five seconds and then turning the inverter on again. The GPSW1500 can also reset any of its protection faults using the optional remote on/off switch to turn the inverter off and then on again. 5.
GPSW-600/1500 ___________________________________________________________ When determining whether a microwave oven can be operated by the 1500 W inverter, remember that the power commonly advertised for microwave ovens is the cooking power (the power delivered to the food) not the power actually consumed by the microwave oven. The microwave oven will consume 40% to 100% more than its advertised cooking power. Check the rating sticker on the back of the oven to determine its actual power draw.
GPSW-600/1500 ___________________________________________________________ • Make sure that the antenna feeding your television provides an adequate ("snow free") signal and that you are using good quality cable between the antenna and the TV. • Move the television as far away from the power inverter as possible. • Keep the cables between the battery and the power inverter as short as possible and twist them together with about 2 to 3 twists per foot. This minimizes radiated interference from the cables.
