Important Safety Instructions
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
This manual contains important instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation, operation and storage of all Tripp Lite Inverters.
Location Warnings
• Install your Inverter in a location or compartment in your vehicle that minimizes exposure to heat, dust, direct sunlight and moisture. Flooding the unit with water will cause it to short circuit and could cause personal injury due to electric shock.
• Leave a minimum of 2" clearance at front and back of the Inverter for proper ventilation. To avoid overheating the Inverter, any compartment that contains the Inverter must be properly ventilated with adequate outside air flow. The heavier the load of connected equipment, the more heat will be generated by the unit.
• Do not install the Inverter directly near magnetic storage media, as this may result in data corruption.
• Do not install near flammable materials, fuel or chemicals.
Battery Connection Warnings
• Multiple battery systems must be comprised of batteries of identical voltage, age, amp-hour capacity and type.
• Because explosive hydrogen gas can accumulate near batteries if they are not kept well ventilated, your batteries should not be installed in a “dead air” compartment. Ideally, any compartment would have some ventilation to outside air.
• Sparks may result during final battery connection. Always observe proper polarity as batteries are connected.
• Do not allow objects to contact the DC input terminals. Do not short or bridge these terminals together. Serious personal injury or property damage could result.
Ground Connection Warnings
• Safe operation requires connecting the Inverter's Main Ground Lug directly to the frame of the vehicle or earth ground.
• For protection against possible electrical shock hazards, if the Inverter is operated in wet or damp conditions, a user-supplied, portable GFCI (ground fault circuit interruptor) must be connected between each Inverter receptacle and the equipment it powers.
Equipment Connection Warnings
Do not use a Tripp Lite Inverter in life support or healthcare applications where a malfunction or failure of a Tripp Lite
Inverter could cause failure of, or significantly alter the performance of, a life support device or medical equipment.
• You may experience uneven performance results if you connect a surge suppressor, line conditioner or UPS system to the output of the Inverter.
Operation Warnings
• Your Inverter does not require routine maintenance.
• Potentially lethal voltages exist within the Inverter as long as the battery supply is connected. During any service work, the battery supply should therefore be disconnected.
• Do not connect or disconnect batteries while the Inverter is operating from the battery supply. Dangerous arcing may result.

Operation
Switch Modes
Switch between the following operating modes as appropriate to your situation:
“ON”: Switch to this setting to provide connected equipment with AC power.
“OFF”: Switch to this setting to shut down the Inverter completely, preventing it from drawing power from the batteries. Use this switch to automatically reset the unit if it shuts down due to low battery or overload. Use an optional remote control module (Tripp Lite model APSRM4, sold separately or included with PV3000HF models) to reset unit due to overload only.
“REMOTE”: Switch to this setting to remotely monitor and control the Inverter with the use of an optional remote module. See remote module’s owner’s manual for operating instructions.
Indicator Lights
Your Inverter is equipped with a simple, intuitive, user-friendly set of indicator lights. These easily-remembered “traffic light” signals will allow you, shortly after first use, to tell at a glance the charge condition of your batteries, as well as ascertain approximate equipment load level.
“BATTERY” Indicator Lights: These three lights will illuminate in several sequences to show the approximate charge level of your con­nected battery:
Approximate Battery Charge Level
Indicator Illuminated Battery Capacity
Green 91%–Full Green & Yellow 81%–90% Yellow 61%–80% Yellow & Red 41%–60% Red 21%–40% Flashing Red (slowly)* 1%–20% Flashing Red (quickly)** 0% (Inverter
has shutdown)
“LOAD” Indicator Lights: These three lights will illuminate in several sequences to show the approximate equipment load level on the Inverter’s AC receptacles.
Approximate Equipment Load Level
Indicator Illuminated Load Level

(Inverter has shutdown)
Charge levels listed are approximate. Actual conditions vary depending on battery condition and load. * Approximately ½ second on, ½ second off. ** Approximately ¼ second on, ¼ second off. See “Resetting Your Inverter to Restore AC Power” to reset after Inverter shut down.
Resetting Your Inverter to Restore AC Power
Your Inverter may cease supplying AC power in order to protect itself from overload or to protect your electrical system. To restore normal functioning:
Low Battery Shutdown Reset: Set operating mode switch to “OFF” and run vehicle engine to recharge battery. When battery is adequately charged, switch operating mode switch back to either “REMOTE” or “ON.”
Overload Shutdown Reset: Set operating mode switch to “OFF” and remove some of the connected electrical load (ie: turn off some of the AC devices drawing power which may have caused the over­load of the unit). Wait one minute, then switch operating mode switch back to either “REMOTE” or “ON.”
Output Circuit Breaker Reset (Select Models): Alternatively, check output circuit breaker(s) on the unit's front panel. If tripped, remove some of the electrical load, then wait one minute to allow components to cool before resetting the circuit breaker. See Troubleshooting for other possible reasons AC output may be absent.
Set Battery Charge Conserver (Load Sense) Dial
In order to save battery power, the Inverter automatical­ly shuts off in the absence of any power demand from connected equipment or appliances (the electrical load). When the unit detects a load, it automatically turns on. Users may choose the minimum load the Inverter will detect by adjusting the Battery Charge Conserver Dial (see diagram). Using a small tool, turn the dial clockwise to lower the minimum load that will be detected, causing the Inverter to turn on for smaller loads. When the dial is turned fully clockwise, the Inverter will operate even when there is no load. Turn the dial counterclockwise to set a higher minimum load, causing the Inverter to stay off until the new minimum load is reached. When the dial is turned fully counterclockwise, the Inverter will turn on when it detects any load greater than approximately 150 Watts.
Note: The factory setting for the dial is fully clockwise. However, based on the threshold load to which you’d like the Inverter to respond, you should adjust the dial counterclockwise to reduce its sensitivity until the Inverter is active only when connected equipment or appliances are actually in use.
Connect Remote Control—OPTIONAL (included with PV3000HF)
All models feature an 8-conductor telephone style receptacle on the front panel for use with an optional remote control module (Tripp Lite model APSRM4, sold separately or included with PV3000HF models). The remote module allows the Inverter to be mounted in a compartment or cabinet out of sight, while operated conveniently from your vehicle’s dashboard. See instructions packed with the remote control module.

Application Guide
540 watts ÷ 12V = 45 DC Amps
45 DC Amps × 5 Hrs. Runtime
× 1.2 = 270 Amp-Hours
Match Battery Amp-Hour Capacity to Your Application
Select a battery or system of batteries that will provide your Inverter with proper DC voltage and an adequate amp-hour capacity to power your application. Even though Tripp Lite Inverters are highly efficient at DC-to-AC inversion, their rated output capacities are limited by the total amp-hour capacity of connected batteries and the support of your vehicle’s alternator if the engine is kept running.
• STEP 1: Determine Total Wattage Required
Add the wattage ratings of all equipment you will connect to your Inverter. Wattage ratings are usually listed in equipment manuals or on nameplates. If your equipment is rated in amps, multiply that number times AC utility voltage to determine watts. (Example: a ¼ in. drill requires 2½ amps. 2½ amps × 120 volts = 300 watts.)
Note: Your Inverter will operate at higher efficiencies at about 75% - 80% of nameplate rating.
• STEP 2: Determine DC Battery Amps Required
Divide the total wattage required (from step 1, above) by the battery voltage (12) to determine the DC amps required.
• STEP 3: Estimate Battery Amp-Hours Required (for operation unsupported by the alternator) Multiply the DC amps required (from step 2, above) by the number of hours you estimate you will operate your equipment exclusively from battery power before you have to recharge your batteries. Compensate for inefficiency and wiring losses by multiplying this number by 1.2. This will give you a rough estimate of how many amp-hours of battery power (from one or several batteries) you should connect to your Inverter.
NOTE: Battery amp-hour ratings are usually given for a 20-hour discharge rate. Actual amp-hour capacities are less when batteries are discharged at faster rates. For example, batteries discharged in 55 minutes provide only 50% of their listed amp-hour ratings, while batteries discharged in 9 minutes provide as little as 30% of their amp-hour ratings.
You must allow your batteries to recharge long enough to replace the charge lost during Inverter operation or else you will eventually run down your batteries.
NOTE: For Tripp Lite Inverters over 1000 watts used in mobile applications, Tripp Lite recommends you use at least two batteries, if possible, fed by a heavy-duty alternator anytime the vehicle is running. Tripp Lite Inverters will provide adequate power for ordinary usage within limited times without the assistance of your vehicle’s alternator. However, when operating extremely heavy electrical loads at their peak, you may wish to “assist your batteries” by running your vehicle engine faster than normal idling.

Mounting
optional
WARNING! If you choose to mount your Inverter, mount it and wire its DC input BEFORE DC battery connection. Failure to follow these instructions may lead to personal injury and/or damage to the Inverter and connected systems.
Tripp Lite Inverters are designed for horizontal mounting in a variety of vehicular or non-vehicular applications. User must supply mounting hardware and is responsible for determining if the hardware and mounting surface are suitable to support the weight of the Inverter. Contact Tripp Lite if you require further assistance in mounting your Inverter.
Vehicular and Non-Vehicular Horizontal Mount
Install and tighten four user-supplied fasteners through Inverter mounting slots and into a rigid horizontal surface. Install fasteners as far back in the mounting slots as possible, otherwise the Inverter may slide back and forth if fasteners loosen.

• Connect DC Wiring:
Connection to Two DC Terminals
PV1000HF and PV1800HF models include two DC termi­nals; PV3000HF models include four DC terminals (two positive and two negative). For PV3000HF models, it is acceptable to use only one set of cables to connect your battery to only one positive and one negative DC terminal, however, your PV3000HF may provide reduced output power. It doesn’t make a difference which positive and negative terminal you choose for the connection because both positive terminals are internally bonded and both negative terminals are also internally bonded.
Regardless of the model, you must run posi­tive cable(s) through user-supplied UL-listed fuse(s) and fuse block(s) of the proper size: PV1000HF—175 amp fuse, PV1800HF— 250 amp fuse, PV3000HF—500 amp fuse.
See Specifications page for Minimum Recommended Cable Sizing Chart. An excellent source of cables are battery jumper cables. Output performance will decrease if you use only one jumper cable.
Connection to Four DC Terminals
To obtain maximum output power from PV3000HF models, it is recommended (but not required) that you use four 00 gauge cables to connect your battery to all four DC terminals. In this connection you must run two positive cables of equal length through two user-supplied UL-listed 250-amp fuses and fuse blocks. Use the equivalent of two 00 cables in all other connections within the battery system.
Length & Gauge of Cables
Although your Inverter is a high-efficiency converter of electricity, its rated output capacity is limited by the length and gauge of the cabling running from the battery to the unit. Use the shortest length and largest diameter cabling (maximum 00 gauge) to fit your Inverter’s DC Input terminals. Shorter and heavier gauge cabling reduces DC volt­age drop and allows for maximum transfer of current. Your Inverter is capable of deliv­ering peak wattage at up to 200% of its rated continuous wattage output instantaneously. See Specifications page for details. Heavier
gauge cabling should be used when continu­ously operating heavy draw equipment under these conditions. Tighten your Inverter and battery terminals to approxi­mately 3.5 Newton-meters (2.58 foot lbs.) of torque to create an efficient connection and to prevent excessive heating at this connection. Insufficient tightening of the terminals could void your warranty.
• Connect Ground: Using a #8 AWG wire or larger, directly connect the Main Ground Lug to the vehicle's chassis ground or earth ground. See Feature Identification section to locate Main Ground Lug. All installations must comply with national and local codes and ordinances.
• Connect Fuse: In addition to the protection provided by the Inverter’s internal fuses, NEC article 551 requires that you connect your Inverter’s positive DC Terminal(s) directly to a UL-listed fuse(s) and fuse block(s) within 18 inches of the battery. See diagrams below for proper fuse placement.
Battery Connection
Vehicular
Your Inverter’s Nominal DC Input Voltage must match the voltage of your battery or batteries—12 Volts in most vehicular applications. It is possible to connect your Inverter to the main battery within your vehicle’s electrical system. In many vehicular contexts, the Inverter will be connected to one or more dedicated auxiliary (house) batteries which are isolated from the drive system to prevent possible draining of the main battery.

Connect your Inverter to your batteries using the following procedures—always loosely twist each pair of cables (one positive and one negative) together:
WARNING! Never attempt to operate your Inverter by connecting it directly to output from an alternator rather than a battery or battery bank.
CAUTION! Observe proper polarity with all DC connections. If polarity is reversed, the Inverter’s 40-amp internal fuses will blow.To access internal fuses, disconnect all equipment and batteries from the Inverter. Then, unscrew and remove front panel; slide out bottom panel to access fuses. Replace blown fuses with an equal number of new fuses of the same type and amperage. Replace front panel and screws.
