seCtIOn 1 | safety Instructions IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAVe tHeSe inStRUctionS This manual contains important Safety and operating Instructions. Please read before using this unit . The following safety symbols will be used in this manual to highlight safety and information: WARninG! Indicates possibility of physical harm to the user in case of non-compliance.
seCtIOn 1 | safety Instructions 9. Precautions when working with batteries. batteries contain very corrosive diluted Sulphuric Acid as electrolyte. Precautions should be taken to prevent contact with skin, eyes or clothing. batteries generate Hydrogen and oxygen during charging resulting in evolution of explosive gas mixture.
seCtIOn 2 | Description, layout & Installation DeScRiPtion This inverter converts 12 VDC from a battery or from a suitable 12 VDC power source to 120 VAC, 60 Hz Pure Sine waveform at rated power of 120W. DeSiGn FeAtUReS • Pure Sine Wave AC output with Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of < 3% • USB Charging Port: 5V, 500 mA with overvoltage protection • Compact and lightweight • 3 color LED indicator for operational status...
