(2) The VDI100 inverter has not been damaged during transportation there should be no dents or parts missing. (3) The VDI100 inverter is the type you ordered. You can check the type and specifications on the main nameplate. (4) Check that the input voltage range meets the input power requirements.
To comply with UL standards, use UL approved copper wires (rated 75° C) and round crimp terminals (UL List- ed products) as shown in table below when connecting to the main circuit terminals. Gefran recommends using crimp terminals manufactured by NICHIFU Terminal Industry Co., Ltd and the terminal crimping tool recom- mended by the manufacturer for crimping terminals and the insulating sleeve.
