1. Installation
1.1 General
WARNING: ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
The product is used in conjunction with a permanent energy source (battery). Input and/or output terminals may still be dangerously energized, even when the equipment is switched off. Always disconnect the battery before carrying out maintenance or servicing the product.
The product has no internal user-serviceable components. Do not remove the front plate or operate the product if any panels have been removed. All servicing must be undertaken by qualified personnel.
Please read the installation instructions in the installation manual before installing the equipment.
This is a Safety Class I product (supplied with a protective grounding terminal). The chassis must be grounded. A grounding point is located on the outside of the product. Whenever it is likely that the grounding protection has been damaged, the product must be turned off and secured against unintended operation; please contact qualified service staff.
The AC output is isolated from the DC input and the chassis. Local regulations may require a true neutral. In this case one of the AC output wires must be connected to the chassis, and the chassis must be connected to a reliable ground, see figure
1. Please note that a true neutral is needed to ensure correct operation of an earth leakage circuit breaker.
Ensure that the equipment is used under the correct ambient conditions.
Never operate the product in a wet or dusty environment. Never use the product where there is a risk of gas or dust explosions.
Ensure there is adequate free space (10 cm) for ventilation around the product and check that the ventilation vents are not blocked.
1.2 Connection to the battery
The inverters are equipped with two DC connection cables with a length of 1.5 meters. If it is unavoidable to extend these cables, use a wire gauge of at least 2 times larger than the ones supplied with the inverter. Maximum recommended battery wire length is 5 meters.
The inverters are fitted with an internal DC fuse (see technical data). If the DC cable length is increased to more than 1,5 m, an additional fuse or DC circuit breaker must be inserted close to the battery.
The red wire must be connected to the positive (+) terminal and the black wire to the negative (-) terminal of the battery.
Reverse polarity connection of the battery wires will blow the internal fuse and can damage the inverter.

1.3 Connecting the load
Some loads like motors or pumps draw large inrush currents in a start-up situation. In such circumstances, it is possible that the start-up current exceeds the over current trip level of the inverter. In this case the output voltage will quickly decrease to limit the output current of the inverter. If the over current trip level is continuously exceeded, the inverter will shut down and restart. If an overload occurs 3 times within 30 seconds the inverter will shutdown. To restart the inverter: switch the Inverter “off”, wait 2 seconds and switch the Inverter “on”.
Never connect the output of the inverter to another AC source, such as a household AC wall outlet or a generator.
1.4 Search Mode
If search mode is ‘on’, the power consumption in no-load operation is decreased by approx. 70%. In this mode the inverter is switched off in case of no load or very low load, and switches on every two seconds for a short period. If the output current exceeds a set level, the inverter will continue to operate. If not, the inverter will shut down again. The standard settings are: Shut down: 20 Watt (linear load) Turn on: 30 Watt (linear load)
