    Yiyuan Electric Co., Ltd www.yiyen.com For 12VDC model, after the battery voltage goes below 10V, if the switch is still(and always) kept in "ON" position, the inverter is always connected with battery, and the battery voltage doesn’t drop below 2V, the inverter will be able to charge the battery once qualified AC inputs.
  • Page 13: Auto Frequency Adjust

    Yiyuan Electric Co., Ltd www.yiyen.com While in the Standby Mode, the AC input is continually monitored. Whenever AC power falls below the VAC Trip voltage (154 VAC, default setting), the inverter automatically transfers back to the Invert Mode with minimum interruption to your appliances - as long as the inverter is turned on. The transfer from Standby mode to Inverter mode occurs in approximately 10 milliseconds.

    Yiyuan Electric Co., Ltd www.yiyen.com For 24VDC inverter, the output voltage of solar charger will be accordingly 24VDC, and the qualified DC input volt range is 30V-55VDC. If the voltage falls out of this range, the charger will not work properly. Special attention should be paid to this when configuring the solar array.

    Yiyuan Electric Co., Ltd www.yiyen.com common example. (Try altering the plug polarity by turning the plug over.) Some computers and sophisticated electronics have power supplies that do not present a load until line voltage is available. When this occurs, each unit waits for the other to begin. To drive these loads either a small companion load must be used to bring the inverter out of its search mode, or the inverter may be programmed to remain at full output voltage.

While for some resistive loads which work in a wide voltage range, the input AC range can be customized to 154-253VAC (90-135V for 120VAC model), this helps to power loads with the most AC input power without frequent switches to the battery bank.
  • Page 24 Yiyuan Electric Co., Ltd www.yiyen.com Auto Gen Start(optional) The inverter can be customized to start up a generator when battery voltage goes low. When the inverter goes to low battery alarm, it can send a signal to start a generator, and turn the generator off after battery charging is finished.
