Welcome to the Dometic world

Dometic Pure Sine wave Inverters – A sign of comfort

The SI 600acs Inverter is designed as a stand –alone power inverter with an AC transfer switch feature with a bypass for an AC utility connection when available. This Inverter is extremely suitable for RV, Commercial Vehicle, Marine and Emergency appliances.

When utility AC power is cut off, the transfer relay is de-energized and the load is automatically transferred to the SI 600acs output and driven by your 12 or 24 Vdc source. Once the AC utility is restored, the relay is energized and the load is automatically reconnected to the AC utility.

You have made a wonderful choice to use Inverters from Dometic. Feel free to contact our dealers for more information or other recommendations within mobile power supply.

Best regards,

Dometic

1 Important Safety Instructions

WARNING !

Before you install and use your Dometic SI 600acs Inverter, be sure to read these safety instructions.

1.1 General Safety Precautions

1-1-1. Do not expose the SI 600acs inverter to rain, snow, spray, bilge or dust.

To reduce risk of hazard, do not cover or obstruct the ventilation openings. Do not install the SI 600acs Inverter in a zero-clearance compartment. Overheating may result.

1-1-2. To avoid the risk of fire or electric shock, make sure that existing wiring

is in good electrical condition and that wire size is not under sized. Do not operate the SI 600acs inverter with damaged or substandard wiring.

1-1-3. This equipment contains components which can produce arcs or sparks.

To prevent fire or explosion do not install in compartments containing batteries or flammable materials or in locations which require ignition protected equipment. This includes any space containing gasoline-powered machinery, fuel tanks, or joints, fittings, or other connections between components of the fuel system.

1.2 Precautions When Working with Batteries

1-2-1. If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and

water. If acid enters eye, immediately flood eye with running cold water for at least 20 minutes and seek medical attention at once.

1-2-2. Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine.

1-2-3. Do not drop a metal tool on the battery. The resulting spark or

short-circuit on the battery or other electrical part may cause an explosion.

1-2-4. Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and

watches when working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid battery produces a short-circuit current high enough to weld a ring or other metal, causing a severe burn.

2 Basic Descriptions

2.1 Mechanical drawings

2.2 The Front panel interface

2-2-1. Power ON / OFF / REMOTE switch:If you use the optional

remote control unit, put the “on/off “ switch to “remote”.

2-2-2. 230Vac input Circuit Breaker:The 7Amp circuit breaker protects

the model from overload. When an overload condition exists, the circuit breaker stops output AC grid power. To reset, push the circuit breaker switch and then the model will be back to a normal operation. The source fault should be corrected prior reset.

2-2-3. Remote port: Connect RJ-11 wiring with remote control unit.

2-2-4. Battery terminals:

Connect 12V/24V batteries or other 12V/24V power sources.

2-2-5. Chassis ground: Connect the inverter chassis ground terminal to

earth.
