GENERAL OPERATION

The INTELI-POWER series converter will supply "clean"
power from input voltages that range from 105 - 130VAC.
The INTELI-POWER series of converters are primarily
designed for use with a battery, however, the output of the
INTELI-POWER converters are a regulated, filtered DC
voltage that can power sensitive electronics without the need
for a battery or other filtering.
At normal input voltages (105 – 130VAC) the full load rated
capacity is available. At input voltages less than 105 VAC the
converter may not supply full rated output capacity.
PD4500LI - The full rated load is available for load, battery
charging or both. When functioning as a regulated battery
charger the converter has a nominal voltage output of 14.6
VDC. The system is designed to sense voltage on the battery
and will taper the charging current as the battery becomes
charged.
CAUTION
The 4500LI series converter/chargers are designed
to recharge lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4)
batteries only.
DO NOT USE TO RECHARGE LEAD/ACID
BATTERIES!
REVERSE BATTERY PROTECTION CIRCUIT
If a battery is accidentally hooked up backwards, the converter will be protected. Easily accessible ATC type fuses will blow when a
battery is connected in reverse. Correct battery wiring and replace fuses with same type and rating. Appropriate fuse size is indicated
on the circuit board.
NOTE: Disconnect all power to the converter prior to checking or changing fuses!
The DC Section:
The DC panel features up to 18 fused positions rated for up to 30 amps, depending on model, for accessories including ten low-to-full
current rated branches. These can be used for lower current devices such as smoke and CO detectors. Each branch has an optional
LED to indicate a blown branch fuse.

FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST RISK OF
FIRE OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK, REPLACE ONLY WITH
SAME TYPE AND RATING FUSE.
Consult a licensed electrician or RV technician for installation assistance
 
PD4500 - The full rated load is available for load, battery
charging or both. When functioning as a regulated battery
charger the converter has a nominal voltage output of 13.6
VDC. The system is designed to sense voltage on the battery
and automatically selects one of three operating modes
(normal, boost and storage) to provide the correct charge level
to the batteries.
BOOST MODE: If the converter senses that the battery
voltage has dropped below a preset level the output voltage is
increased to approximately 14.4 VDC to rapidly recharge the
battery.
NORMAL MODE: Output voltage set at approximately 13.6
VDC.
STORAGE MODE: When there has been no significant
battery usage for 30 hours the output voltage is reduced to
13.2 VDC for minimal water usage. When in storage mode,
the output voltage will periodically increase to 14.4 VDC to
help prevent sulfation of the battery plates.
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE FLUID LEVELS OF
ANY CONNECTED BATTERIES BE CHECKED
ON A REGULAR BASIS. ALL BATTERIES WILL
