  • Page 1 Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter OWNER’S MANUAL Featured Design • High efficiency- save battery • Compact size- portable • Low Idle Current • Soft Start Technology THIS MANUAL CONTAINS IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING SAFETY, OPERATION, MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE OF THIS PRODUCT. BEFORE USE, READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL CAUTIONS, WARNINGS, INSTRUCTIONS AND PRODUCT LABELS, PLUS YOUR VEHICLE’S BATTERY MANUFACTURER GUIDELINES.

  • Page 2: Important Cable Information

    WARNINGS: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION OR INJURY: 1. Do not connect to AC distribution wiring. This inverter is NOT grid interactive. 2. Remove appliance plug from outlet strip or turn off inverter before working on the appliance.

  • Page 3: Installation / Environments

    THE OUTPUT WAVEFORM The AC output waveform of the inverter is known as “Pure Sine Wave” or “True Sine Wave”. It is a waveform that has characteristics same to the sine wave shape of utility power. (See Figure 1).
  • Page 4 The inverter will provide you 115 VAC when powered by a 12 VDC source such as is found in a vehicle or multiple battery configurations as shown in FIGURE 2. This manual does not describe all of the possible types of battery configurations, battery charging configurations and battery isolation configurations.

  • Page 5: Connecting To A Power Source

    CAUTION: Loose connectors may cause overheated wires and melted insulation. Check to make sure you have not reversed the polarity. Reverse polarity connection will result in a blown fuse and may cause permanent damage to the inverter. CONNECTING TO A POWER SOURCE External FUSE and DC cable selection: WATT FUSE...

    11. If the inverter is not properly operating, then refer to the troubleshooting sections of this manual. CAUTION: Loose connectors may cause overheated wires and melted insulation. CONNECTION TO LOAD Plug the cord from the equipment you wish to operate into the AC receptacle. The green LED indicator lights to indicate that the inverter is functioning.

  • Page 7: Operating Tips

    SAFE – Do not use the inverter near flammable materials or in any locations that may accumulate flammable fumes of gases. OPERATING TIPS RATED VERSUS ACTUAL CURRENT DRAW OF EQUIPMENT Most electrical tools, appliances and audio/video equipment have labels that indicate the power consumption in amps or watts.

  • Page 8: Protective Features Of The Inverter

    To get an estimate of the current (in amps) that the battery must be capable of delivering, divide the load consumption power (in watts) by (10). Keep in mind that most appliances are not operating for long periods of time. For example, a typical home-use coffee maker draws 500 watts during its brew time of 5 minutes, but it maintains the temperature of the pot at about 100 watts.

  • Page 9: Special Features

    If the low voltage alarm sounds when the battery is fully charged, follow the steps for solving lack of output power in the Troubleshooting guide. The alarm will sound when the inverter is overloaded, in thermal shutdown, or if there is an excessive voltage drop between the battery and inverter.
