Do not open the inverter to operate when it is working. The AC output with high voltage during the inverter operation, so do NOT touch the connection point; it may cause danger. The dangerous operations which would cause electric arc, fire or explosion ...
Overview Based on a full-digital intelligent technology, the NPower series is a pure sine wave inverter, converting 12/24/48V DC power to 220/230V AC power. With advanced SPWM technology, voltage-current double closed-loop control, and completely isolated inverter technology, the NPower has high-quality electrical parameters and a stronger ability to resist impact load.

The output is OFF after 3s ① S=1.8P Red indicator slowly flashing (S: Output power; P : Rated power) Buzzer sounds ① When the overload protection is activated, the AC output will recover three times automatically(the first time delay 5s, the second time delays for 10s, and the third time delays for 15s). After then the AC output will not recover automatically after restarting the inverter.
Troubleshooting DO NOT try to repair or maintain the inverter by yourself; it may cause danger. WARNING Phenomenon Possible reasons Troubleshooting Green indicator slowly Suppose the DC input voltage goes lower DC input voltage under flashing than10.8/21.6/43.2V. Adjust the input voltage Buzzer sounds voltage to restore normally.
Maintenance The following inspections and maintenance tasks are recommended at least two times per year for the best performance. Make sure no block on airflow around the inverter. Clear up any dirt and fragments on the radiator. Check all the naked wires to ensure insulation is not damaged for serious solarization—frictional wear, dryness, insects or rats, etc.
