Features And Benefi Ts - Magnum Energy MS-PAE Series Owner's Manual

1.1 Features and Benefi ts
The MS-PAE Series inverter/charger is designed to allow easy access to wiring, circuit breakers,
controls and for viewing the LED (Light Emitting Diode) status indicator. Its die cast base-plate
with one piece aluminum cover ensures maximum durability with minimum weight, as well as
cooler more effi cient operation.
The front of the MS-PAE Series is equipped with the following features (refer to fi gures 1-1 and
1-2):
Power Switch - a momentary push-button switch that alternately turns the inverter On
1
or Off.
Status LED Indicator - this green LED illuminates to provide information on the in-
2
verter or charger operation.
Parallel Stack Connection Port (red label) - a RJ45 port that connects to the ME-RTR
3
Router, which is used to confi gure and synchronize multiple MS-PAE units to operate in
parallel for increase power capacity.
CAUTION: Connect this Parallel Stack Port connection only to the ME-RTR.
Although the cabling and connectors used in this network system are the same as
Ethernet connectors, this network is not an Ethernet system. Attempting to connect
these two different systems may cause damage and is not covered under warranty.
Info: The MS-PAE Series Inverters cannot not be connected in parallel without in-
stalling the optional ME-RTR.
Magnum Net Connection Port (green label) - a RJ11 port that accepts optional Net-
4
work capable accessories (i.e. Auto Gen Start or Battery Monitor).
Remote Connection Port (blue label) - a RJ11 port that allows optional remote control
5
displays (i.e. ME-RC, ME-ARC, ME-RTR) to be connected.
BTS Connection Port (yellow label) - RJ11 port that accepts the remote Battery Tem-
6
perature Sensor (BTS) accessory.
DC Equipment Ground Terminal - this connection is used to tie the exposed chassis of
7
the inverter to the DC grounding system. This terminal accepts CU/AL conductors from
#14 to #2 AWG (2.1 to 33.6 mm
AC Entry/Exit Connections - two 3/4" knockouts provided with cable-clamp
8
to allow and hold the AC input and output
Intake Air Vents - ventilation openings to pull in air to help keep the inverter cool for
9
peak performance.
Positive DC Terminal - provides 360 degree connection point for the positive (+) cable
10
from the battery bank; provided with a 5/16-18 stainless Kep or Flange nut on a 5/16-18
bolt (5/8" usable length) to hold the battery cable to the DC terminal which uses.
Negative DC Terminal - provides 360 degree connection point for the negative (-) cable
11
from the battery bank; provided with a 5/16-18 stainless Kep or Flange nut on a 5/16-18
bolt (5/8" usable length) to hold the battery cable to the DC terminal.
12 Mounting Flange - used to secure the inverter to a shelf or wall.
