REDARC Pure Sine Wave Inverters produce a pure sine wave output. This means that the power output from a REDARC Pure Sine Wave Inverter is not only the same as the mains supply, it’s often better. The R-12-1000RS-NA and R-12-1500RS-NA are compliant for residential and industrial applications whereas the R-12-2000RS-NA and R-12-3000RS-NA are compliant for industrial applications only. - Page 3 AC frequency different to the inverter output may result in damage to your appliances. Output AC frequency is dip switch selectable, see Section 2.1.3 (page 14). • All RS Series Inverters are suitable for indoor use only. • The direction of fan air flow must be horizontal.

Page 20: Installation
INSTALLATION Mounting Install the inverter in a well-ventilated area with reasonable clearance, avoid installing the inverter in a zero-clearance compartment or obstruct the ventilation openings, doing so may result in the inverter overheating and ultimately damage the inverter. The power inverter should be used in an environment that meets the following requirements: 1. -
Page 21: Safety Before Installing Dc Wiring Connections
INSTALLATION NOTICE Install the inverter in a well-ventilated area with reasonable clearance. Do not install the inverter in a zero-clearance compartment or obstruct the ventilation openings. Doing so may result in the inverter overheating and ultimately damage the inverter. Safety Before Installing DC Wiring Connections 3.3.1 Loads Are Disconnected Make sure all loads are disconnected from the inverter's AC output and ensure that the inverter main switch is set to the OFF position before connecting DC cables. -
Page 22: Chassis Ground Connection
INSTALLATION WARNING REVERSE POLARITY CONNECTION WILL BLOW THE INTERNAL FUSE AND MAY CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE INVERTER. RISK OF FIRE. THESE INVERTERS CAN DRAW VERY LARGE DC CURRENTS. A BATTERY TYPE AND CONFIGURATION MUST BE SELECTED THAT CAN SAFELY AND RELIABLY SUPPLY BOTH THE STEADY STATE AND PEAK TRANSIENT CURRENTS DRAWN BY THE INVERTERS. -
Page 23: Dc Wiring Connections
INSTALLATION DC Wiring Connections Before inserting DC cables, remove the bolts with attached washers in the terminal a. Insert the crimped/terminated DC cable lugs into the input terminals, ensuring that the DC cables are connected into the correct terminal, positive (+) DC cable into positive terminal and negative (−) DC cable into the negative terminal. -
Page 24: Ac Safety Grounding
INSTALLATION CAUTION ENSURE THAT ALL THE DC CONNECTIONS ARE TIGHT - TORQUE TO 1.5 FT-LBF (2.8 NM). LOOSE CONNECTIONS COULD RESULT IN OVERHEATING AND CAN BE A POTENTIAL HAZARD. DO NOT OPERATE THE INVERTER WITH DAMAGED OR SUBSTANDARD WIRING. SELECTING THE WRONG CABLE OR FUSE SIZE COULD RESULT IN HARM TO THE INSTALLER OR USER AND/OR DAMAGE TO THE INVERTER OR OTHER APPLIANCES INSTALLED IN THE SYSTEM. -
