Page 5: General Information
General Information The Renogy Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter Charger delivers superior performance for remote off-grid applications. The inverter is of pure sine wave capable of producing cleaner, smoother, and more reliable electricity for a user’s electronic needs. The inverter is also able to charger the battery bank when AC power is connected to the inverter. -
Page 6: Included Components
Included Components Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) Renogy inverter chargers come equipped with a battery temperature sensor that will help prolong the battery life. The temperature sensor allows the inverter charger to continuously adjust the charging voltage based on the battery temperature. - Page 7 If commands from the two boards conflict with each other, the following priorities will automatically take place: Power Saver On > Power Saver Off > Power Off Both panels in the off position will power the inverter off. NOTE: When the inverter is in Battery-priority mode, finishes a complete charging cycle, and switches to inverter mode, “AC: Abnormal”...

CAUTION: Do not over-torque or over tighten the terminals. This could potentially damage the unit CAUTION: Refer to the technical specifications for max wire sizes on the inverter charger and for the maximum amperage going through wires. -
Page 11: Location Recommendations
Location Recommendations WARNING: Never install the inverter in a sealed enclosure with flooded batteries. Gas can accumulate and there is a risk of explosion. Ensure installation follows the following guidelines: 1. Cool, dry, well-ventilated area—Heat is the worst enemy for electronic equipment. -
Page 12: Grounding
This is just an example. Actual quantities vary by battery capacity and rates of discharge. NOTE: In the example above, the user would need to be using at least the Renogy 1000W Pure Sine Wave Inverter Charger. Grounding The Renogy Pure Sine Wave Inverter Chargers come equipped with a grounding lug for appropriate grounding to earth ground or to another designated ground (For example, a metal frame of an RV). - Page 13 DC Wiring CAUTION: We recommend installing the inverter as close as possible to the battery bank. The torque rating for the DC terminal is 12.5NM-20.5NM. The torque rating suggested is 17NM. Inverter Cable Size (10 feet distance) 1000W AWG 4-1/0 2000W AWG 2/0 3000W...

Page 14: Operation
NOTE: Damage to the Renogy inverters due to reverse polarity is NOT covered by warranty. NOTE: The input terminals of the inverters have large capacitors connected to them. Once a positive and negative wire are connected to the terminals, it will complete the circuit, and commence drawing a heavy current momentarily. - Page 15 A.G.M 2 14.6V 13.7V Sealed Lead Acid 14.4V 13.6V Gel 2 14.4V 13.8V Flooded Lead Acid 14.8V 13.8V Calcium (Open) 15.1V 13.6V Equalization 15.5V for 4 hrs. Not Used Battery Charging Stages Bulk Stage: The charger will supply constant current until the battery voltage reaches the boost voltage.
- Page 16 Equalization: This stage is only available if the battery selector is switched to position 8. During this stage the batteries are charged at a higher voltage than normal and for most batteries this could cause damage. Please refer to the batteries owner’s manual or contact the manufacturer to see if this stage is needed.
- Page 17 Power Saver on Power Saver Mode The Renogy Inverter Charger has two working mode: “Power Saver Off” and “Power Saver AUTO” When the inverter is switched on to Power Saver Off the inverter will supply AC power without any interruptions.
- Page 18 When the inverter is switched on to Power Saver AUTO the inverter will send a signal to the AC loads for 250ms every 3 seconds and if an AC device (50W+) is connected the inverter will start supplying power. NOTE: To activate this mode DIP switch 3 must be set to position 1.
