    14.1 volts in bulk charging mode, and 13.5 volts in float charging mode. For liquid lead-acid batteries, you can reset the Mariner using the RC7 remote control to bulk charge at 14.5 volts and float charge at 13.4 volts. For a complete discussion of batteries and battery charging techniques, see the Batteries and the Three-Stage Battery Charger sections of this manual.

  • Page 17: Shore Power Amps Monitoring

    Shore Power Amps Monitoring Mariner models monitor the current drawn by the built-in charger and any AC loads. These current requirements may exceed the amperage rating of the shore power circuit breaker. To prevent unnecessary tripping of this circuit breaker, the inverter limits the current draw to a maximum between five and 30 amps, set by using the RC7 remote control.

    Because the top of a Mariner chassis is not vented, clearance between the enclosure and the top of the inverter is not relevant. A fresh air intake opening should be provided directly to the fan if possible, and an exhaust port directly opposite that will allow cool outside air to flow through the inverter and back out of the enclosure.
