Reverse polarity connection will blow internal fuse and may damage inverter permanently.
3-3. Installation: Where to install. The power inverter should be installed in a location that Meets the following requirements: 3-3-1. Dry – Do not allow water to drip or splash on the inverter. 3-3-2. Cool – Ambient air temperature should be between 0℃ and 33℃, the cooler the better.
3-4. Quick hook – up and testing: For a quick hook – up of the power inverter to check its performance before going ahead with installation, please follow these guidelines: 3-4-1. Unpack and inspect the power inverter to check its performance switch in the OFF position.

3-4-3. Before proceeding further, carefully check that cable you have connected does tie negative terminal of inverter to the negative output power source. CAUTION ! Reverse polarity connection will blow a fuse in inverter and may permanently damage the inverter. Damage caused by reverse polarity connection is not covered by warranty.
3-5. AC Safety Grounding: During the AC wiring installation, AC input and output ground wires are connected to the inverter. The AC input ground wire must connect to the incoming ground from your AC utility source. The AC output ground wire should go to the grounding point for your loads ( for example, a distribution panel ground bus ).
UL standards requires us to test and recommend specific GFCI. Cotek has tested the following GFCI – protected 20A receptacles and found that they functioned properly when connected to the output of the Inverter.

Increasing your DC cable size will help improve the situation. Cotek recommends the following cables for optimum inverter performance ( apply both 120V and 230V versions ) Model No Wire AWG Inline Fuse S600-112 100A S600-212 100A S600-124 S600-224 Also, use only high quality copper wiring and keep cable length short, a maximum of 3-6 feet.
3-7. Inverter Operation: To operate the power inverter, turn it on using the ON / OFF switch on the Front panel. The power inverter is now ready to deliver AC power to your loads. If you are operating several loads from the power inverter, turn them on separately after the inverter has been turned on.
4. Troubleshooting guide: WARNING! Do not open or disassemble the S600 Inverter. Attempting to service the unit yourself may result in a risk of electrical shock or fire. Problems and Symptoms Possible Cause Solutions No output voltage, ”FAULT" LED lights RED. a.
5. Maintenance: Very little maintenance is required to keep your inverter operating properly. You should clean the exterior of the unit periodically with a damp cloth to prevent accumulation of dust and dirt. At the same time, tighten the screws on the DC input terminals. 6.
