INSTALLATION

Choosing a location to install
 Install the Inverter in a well-ventilated room protected
against rain, snow, spray, vapour, bilge, moisture and
dust.
 Ambient temperature: –25 ... 40°C / –13...104°F;
 Never use the Inverter at a location where there is
danger of gas or dust explosions
 Mount the Inverter in such a way that obstruction of
the airflow through the ventilation openings is
prevented. No objects must be located within a
distance of 10 cm / 4 inch around the Inverter.
 Do not install the Inverter in the same compartment as
the batteries. Do not mount the Inverter straight above
the batteries because of possible corrosive sulphur
fumes.
Before you start
 Be sure that the output of the supplying source
(battery) is switched off during installation. Also be
sure that no consumers are connected to the battery
during installation, to prevent hazardous situations.
 Before installing the Inverter make sure the main
switch (Figure 1, ref. 1) is set to the OFF position.
 Check that the battery voltage is the same as the
input voltage of the Inverter (e.g. 24V battery for a

24V input voltage). Also check that the output voltage
satisfies loading requirements
 A DC fuse holder must be integrated in the positive
wiring. The DC fuse should be placed last of all.
 Use four Ø4.5mm (No. 8) screws to mount the
Inverter to a solid surface. See Figure 3.
Wiring
 Connect DC wiring as shown in Figure 2: the black
terminal (9) NEG (–) to the negative (–) pole of the
power source / battery, the red terminal (8) POS (+) to
the positive (+) pole of the power source/ battery.
Integrate a DC fuse holder in the positive wiring, but
do not place the fuse yet. Assemble the DC wiring
exactly as indicated. Do not place anything between
the ring terminal and the terminal surface. Make sure
that all DC connections are tight. Recommended
torque: 11.7-13 Nm / 104-115 InLbs
 Chassis ground: Use a cable AWG8 / 6 mm² to
connect the CHASSIS GROUND terminal (7) to the
central ground.
 Remote operation switch (option). If you want to
operate the Inverter on a remote location, you can
install a switch as indicated in Figure 2. When the
contact is closed, the Inverter is switched on.
