IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Please read this manual thoroughly before use and store in a safe place for future reference.
WARNINGS
• For indoor use out of weather only.
• For use with negatively earthed vehicles & systems only.
• Internally bonded for safety, battery DC negative to case & AC socket earth.
• Hazardous voltage inside – do not attempt to open, repair or use if damaged.
• Only connect 230/240V AC appliances that are in safe condition.
• This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons unless they have been
adequately supervised by a responsible person to ensure that they can use the appliance safely.
• Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• It is recommended that a type ‘A’ portable residual current device (RCD) be used for added
output protection.
• For independent use, do not connect to buildings.
CAUTIONS
• Batteries should be mounted in a separate well-vented enclosure.
• Even though the inverter is powered from a battery, it still produces dangerously high voltage AC
power and has the potential to fatally injure if incorrectly installed or used.
• Double check battery negative and positive posts before making any connection; a wrong
connection (reverse polarity) will cause the fuse/s to blow and may damage the inverter.
• A small spark (arc) can occur when making the final battery connection, this is most common
when the inverter has not been used for some time. This spark is caused by the inverter’s large
capacitors charging quickly. To minimise this, make the last connection quickly and completely.
• Batteries can be dangerous; follow all battery manufacturer’s instructions and warnings.
• Never operate the inverter without the DC negative input connected direct to the battery and
never install a fuse, circuit breaker or battery switch in the negative supply line (PW150 excepted).
FEATURES
PURE SINE WAVE OUTPUT
There are two different types of inverters, modified sine wave and pure sine wave.
The difference between the two is how closely the output replicates mains power.
Logically it follows that the process used in a pure sine wave inverter is more complex than a
modified sine wave inverter and subsequently more expensive. Most electric appliances operate
unaffected on a modified sine wave and hence they are more common.
Pure sine wave inverters are best for use on medical equipment and sensitive electrical appliances.
They allow you to watch television without static, play your favourite game on an XBoxTM,
Playstation
TM
or WiiTMand run a fluoro, all of which may not operate properly on a modified
sine wave inverter.

FULLY ISOLATED DESIGN
Safety is paramount around 240V and in particular with inverters which is why Projecta
fully electrically isolates the DC (and therefore battery posts, vehicle chassis, etc) from the
240V AC circuit.
DESIGNED TO AS4763
Designed in accordance with Australian Standard AS4763: 2011 – Safety of Portable Inverters.
REMOTE CONTROL DISPLAY (PW600, PW900 & PW1800)
The PW600, PW900 and PW1800 can connect to an optional remote (P/No. PWREMOTE) which will
allow the inverter to be turned on/off remotely. Ideal for use in caravans, motor homes and boats.
