API600W API800W MODIFIED SINE WAVE INVERTER 12V DC TO 220V-240V AC 50Hz USER MANUAL For more information on the Aerpro range go to our website aerpro.com...
2. INTRODUCTION The Aerpro API600W/API800W is an easy to use power inverter that is capable of providing 240V power from a 12V battery source. It allows you to power 240V appliances from a 12V battery (i.e your vehicle battery) and is ideal for use when a standard household 240V power point is not accessible.
4. SPECIFICATIONS API600W API800W Rated power 600W 800W Peak power 1200W 1600W Fuse (Internal) 35A x2 50A x2 Output waveform Modified Sine Wave Input voltage 12.8V-13.2V Output voltage 230V±5% Working voltage 11V-15V USB output DC 5V 2100mA Max output efficiency >80%...
5. SAFETY FIRST Incorrect installation or misuse of the inverter may result in danger to the user or hazardous conditions. We urge you to pay special attention to all CAUTION and WARNING statements. CAUTION statements identify conditions or practices that may result in damage to the inverter or to other equipment.

5. SAFETY FIRST WARNING! Explosion hazard - Do not use the inverter in the presence of flammable fumes or gases, such as in the bilge of a petrol powered boat, or near propane tanks. - Do not use the inverter in an enclosure containing automotive-type, lead-acid batteries.
5. SAFETY FIRST CAUTION! Check that the battery voltage (12 Volt) is the same as the input voltage of power inverter (for example, DC 12V of battery connected with input voltage 12V of the inverter) 6. SAFETY FEATURES - Input protections: Polarity reverse(Fuse broken)/Over and under voltage and shut Down - Output protections: Short circuit/Overload/Over temperature...
8. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (1) ON/OFF power switch This switch turns ON/OFF the inverter (2) Overload (Fault) indicator If the LED overload on, indicates that the inverter is in a state of warning or protection, cease use. (3) Power indicator When lit, it indicates the inverter has been turned on and is ready for use.

8. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (6) 12 Volt positive (+) terminal, for connection to the positve (+) of a 12V battery (7) High speed cooling fan The fans cool the internal circuits automatically, while the inverter is in working (8) 12 Volt negetive (--) terminal, for connection to the negetive (--) of a 12V battery...
9. POWER SUPPLY The power supply source needs to guarantee at least 10.5 Volt to max.15.0 Volt DC and enough permanent output to operate the unit. NOTE: Connecting the DC power in the wrong way (reverse polarity) will destroy the power inverter and may damage the electrical equipment in use, please follow the steps below in the correct sequence and make sure to use the inverter in the correct way.

9. POWER SUPPLY Short-circuit protection - If the wires are crossed or the output has short-circuited, this usually causes the 20 amp fuse to blow. Unplug the load from the power inverter and exchange the fuse. Overheating protection - If the internal temperature of 65℃...
10. TROUBLESHOOTING Problem: Low outgoing voltage Solution: • The power inverter is overloaded Incoming voltage is below 10.6 Volts. • Reduce the outgoing output. • Ensure adequate incoming voltage of over 10.6 volts Problem: battery power is too low Solution: • Poor condition of the battery Inadequate power supply or inappropriate voltage drops •...
