General safety instructions

Electrical devices are not children’s toys

Always keep and use the device out of the reach of children.

2.2Safety when installing the device

!WARNING!

Installing the device may only be performed by qualified personnel who are familiar with the guidelines and safety precautions to be applied.

If electrical devices are incorrectly installed on boats, corrosion damage might occur. The device should be installed by a specialist (marine) electrician.

ANOTICE!

Ensure that the device is standing firmly.

The device must be set up and fastened in such a way that it cannot tip over or fall down.

Do not expose the device to a heat source (such as direct sunlight or heating). Avoid additional heating of the device in this way.

If cables have to be fed through metal walls or other walls with sharp edges, use ducts or tubes to prevent damage.

Do not lay cables which are loose or bent next to electrically conductive material (metal).

Do not pull on the cables.

Do not lay the 230 V mains cable and the 12/24 V DC cable in the same duct.

Fasten the cables securely.

Lay the cables so that they cannot be tripped over or damaged.

2.3Operating the device safely

!WARNING!

Only operate the device if you are certain that the housing and the cables are undamaged.

Even after the fuse triggers, parts of the inverter remain live.

Always disconnect the power supply when working on the device.

Target group for this Instruction

5Target group for this Instruction

It is chapter “Connecting the inverter” on page 21 expressly intended for technical people who are familiar with the corresponding VDE-Guidelines.

All other chapters are also intended for the users of the device.

6Intended use

!WARNING!

Never use the inverter on vehicles where the positive terminal of the battery is connected to the chassis.

The wave inverter converts direct current of

12 Vg:

SinePower MSI912 SinePower MSI1312 SinePower MSI1812 SinePower MSI1812T SinePower MSI1812TOE

24 Vg:

SinePower MSI924 SinePower MSI1324 SinePower MSI1824 SinePower MSI1824T

into a 200 – 240 V AC supply of 50 Hz or 60 Hz.

15

EN

Technical description

SinePower

7Technical description

The inverters can be operated wherever

a 12 Vg connection (MSI912, MSI1312, MSI1812, MSI1812T, MSI1812TOE)

a 24 Vg connection (MSI924, MSI1324, MSI1824, MSI1824T)

is available. The light-weight and compact construction of this device allows for easy installation in mobile homes, commercial vehicles or motor and sailing yachts.

The output voltage corresponds to the household voltage from the socket (pure sine wave, THD < 3 %).

Please observe the values for constant output power and peak output power as indicated in chapter “Technical data” on page 32. Never connect devices that have a higher power requirement.

INOTE

Note when connecting devices with an electrical drive (such as power drills and refrigerators), that they often require more power than is indicated on the type plate.

The inverter has various protective mechanisms.

Overvoltage protection: The inverter shuts itself off when the voltage exceeds the cut-off value. It restarts when the voltage returns to the restart value.

Low-voltage protection: The inverter shuts itself off when the voltage sinks below the cut-off value. It restarts when the voltage rises to the restart value.

High temperature protection: The inverter switches off when the temperature inside the device or the temperature on the cooling element exceeds a cut-off value. It restarts when the temperature has reduced.

Overload protection: The LED on the inverter indicates an operating fault (constant red light) when an excess load is connected or a short circuit has occurred. The fuse in the device must be pressed in again by hand after it is triggered by excess current.

Incorrect polarity protection: The incorrect polarity protection prevents the wrong polarity when connecting the inverter.

Device fuse (only MSI1812T, MSI1812TOE, MSI1824T): The LED on the inverter indicates an operating fault (constant red light). The fuse in the device must be pressed in again by hand after it is triggered.

INOTE

The individual switching values are found in chapter “Technical data” on page 32.

SinePower

Technical description

In addition the device can be configured over an RS-232 interface by a PC and with the DIP switches on the device.

The inverter can be switched to an energy-saving mode to prevent the connected battery from discharging too quickly.

The inverter can be easily controlled with a remote control (accessory).

The inverters SinePower MSI1812T, MSI1812TOE, MSI1824T are fitted with a 230 Vw priority circuit. If there is an external 230 Vw voltage this is used as a first

priority. If no external 230 Vw voltage is connected, then the connected battery will be used as the power supply.

9.1General instructions

!WARNING!

The inverter may only be connected by a suitably qualified technician. The following information is intended for technicians who are familiar with the guidelines and safety precautions to be applied.

For vehicles in which the positive terminal of the battery is connected with the chassis the inverter must not be installed.

If you do not fit a fuse to the positive cable, the cables can overload, which might result in a fire.

Reversed polarity can damage the inverter.

MSI900, MSI1300, MSI1800: The inverter must not be used in a ring main, but only used for supplying individual devices with electricity. These devices must be plugged directly into the inverter, or connected to the inverter using a sheathed extension cable manufactured for this purpose.

When installed in vehicles or boats, the inverter must be connected to the chassis or earth.

When setting up a socket distribution circuit (mains set up), comply with VDE 0100.

Only use copper cables.

Keep the cables as short as possible (< 1.8 m).

Keep to the required cable cross section and fit a cable fuse (fig. 9 3, page 6) as close as possible to the battery in the positive cable (see Table).

10.1Switching on inverter

Put the main switch (fig. 6 1, page 4 to fig. 8 1, page 5) of the inveter in switch position’ON’.

Set the On/Off switch to “OFF” to switch off.

The inverter performs a self-test.

During the self-test, the built-in speaker emits tones and the LEDs flash.

After the successful self test the LEDs ‘Input level’ light.(fig. 6 2, page 4 to fig. 8 2, page 5) and ‘Load Status’ (fig. 6 3, page 4 to fig. 8 3, page 5) green.

Note the following instructions in operation (see also chapter “Troubleshooting” on page 30

The inverter switches off if:

the battery voltage drops below 10.5 V (12 Vg connection) or 21 V (24 Vg connection),

the battery voltage rises over 16 V (12 Vg connection) or 32 V (24 Vg connection),

the inverter overheats.

Switch the inverter off with the main switch in this case (fig. 6 1, page 4 to fig. 8 1, page 5).

Check that the inverter is sufficiently ventilated and that the ventilation grilles are unimpeded.

Wait about 5 – 10 minutes and switch the inverter on again without loads.

When operating the inverter at high load for lengthy periods, it is advisable to start the engine in order to recharge the vehicle battery.
