Protective features
Low battery alarm - An alarm will sound when the voltage from the battery drops to 10.5 volts DC. This indicates
that the battery the PowerSource is connected to will require recharging. (If connected to a vehicle battery,
starting the vehicle engine should be sufficient) The Powersource will automatically shutdown if its voltage is
allowed to drop to 9.5 volts DC or below.
Over voltage protection - The PowerSource will automatically shutdown if the input voltage exceeds 15 volts DC.
Reverse polarity protection - Reverse polarity (incorrect battery connection) may result in the blowing of the
internal blade fuses. If this occurs immediately, disconnect the battery. The internal blade fuses will need to be
checked by a qualified electrician if the PowerSource does not continue to work.
Overload protection - The PowerSource will automatically shut down if the continuous power draw exceeds its
maximum rating of the PowerSource.
Temperature protection - If the temperature of the internal heat sink reaches >65oC the Powersource will shut
down automatically. Allow the PowerSource to cool before using again.
