Introduction
The back panels of the CMW1012 and CMW1512 inverters are equipped with
the following features (See Figures 1-4 and 1-5):
8. Cooling Fan(s) – an intake cooling fan that automatically turns on when
the inverter’s internal temperature rises above 122°F (50°C). Turns off
when the inverter’s internal temperature falls below 122°F (50°C).
9. DC Chassis Ground Connection – the connection that is used to tie
the exposed chassis of the inverter to the DC grounding system. The DC
grounding system could be the vehicle’s chassis, the DC grounding bus,
or to the engine’s negative bus.
10. Mounting Flanges (front and rear) – used to mount and secure the
inverter to a shelf/wall.
11. DC Negative Terminal (black) – the inverter’s connection to the
negative terminal on the 12 VDC battery bank.
12. DC Positive Terminal (red) – the inverter’s connection to the positive
terminal on the 12 VDC battery bank.
13. Model Number – the model number of the inverter (i.e., CMW1012),
and regulatory compliance information.
