About This Inverter.

This power inverter converts 12 volts, direct current (12V DC) to 115

volts alternating household current (115V AC). It easily powers TV/VCR

combinations, small microwave ovens, and refrigerators. It also operates at

high efﬁciency (up to 90%) that results in long running time and extended

battery life compared to other inverters with this level of power output.

This inverter has the highest surge capability in its class. Superior surge

capability of 4,000 watts allows the inverter to start most difﬁcult motorized

appliances. Advanced microprocessor-controlled circuits run cooler and are

more reliable than competing units.

range is 10.5V to 15V DC.

• Digital Display: Press the green Display Mode Selector button to change

current display mode. The Green LEDs will light correspondingly.

• Output Voltage: Displays DC output load.

• Input Voltage: Displays DC input that the inverter senses at its ter-

minals. Low battery, excessive load for the cables can cause a low

voltage reading and inverter shutdown. Low battery is also indicated

when the Audible Alarm sounds.

• Output Power: Shows the “Percent of Load that the inverter can

handle”. If the inverter has excessive load “OVL” will be displayed.

• Audible Alarm (internal to the inverter)

When the audible Alarm makes a buzzing sound, the inverter senses a

low battery condition. The user should reduce the AC load, charge the

battery, and check the DC cable or excessive losses.

Load Considerations

When an appliance with a motor starts, it requires a momentary surge of

power. This surge of power is the “starting load” or “peak load”. Once started,

the appliance requires less power to continue to operate. This is known as the

“continuous load”. It is important to know the starting loads and the continuous

loads of the appliances that are to be powered by the inverter.

Appliance power is rated in watts. This information is usually stamped or

printed on most appliances and equipment. In some cases, a tool will be rated

in amperes. To convert from amps to watts, multiply:

Amps x 115 (AC voltage) = Watts

This formula yields an approximation of the continuous wattage load of that

appliance.

The startup load of an appliance is a major factor of whether this inverter can

power it.

Startup load is momentary. With many appliances, it is approximately twice

the continuous load, but some appliance startup loads can be as high as eight

times the continuous load.

To determine if an appliance or tool will operate with this inverter, run a test.

This inverter will automatically shut down in the event of an output overload,

so there is no danger of damaging either the inverter or the equipment. When

lit, a red LED indicator signals a fault.

Planning the Inverter System

Any large wattage inverter system requires planning before installation. There

are several steps to the planning process so the user must determine the

following:

• Maximum inverter wattage required.

• Operating time (run time) needed between battery recharges.

• Battery bank capacity in amp-hours.

• Charger requirement to charge batteries within a practical time.

• Distance between battery bank and inverter.

Determining Maximum Appliance Wattage

Microwave oven speciﬁcations list cooking power (watts) and appliance

power. Appliance power is the AC load the inverter has to supply. Do not

exceed the 2,000 watt maximum AC load or the inverter will shut down.

Most other electrical tools, appliances, and audio/video equipment have

labels that list the unit’s power requirements in watts. If the tool or device is

rated in amps, multiply the amps by 115 (115V AC) to determine the watts. For

example, a power tool rated at 4 amps will draw 460 watts.

Remember to consider the startup surge that motorized appliances will cause.

Do not exceed the 4,000 watt surge rating of this inverter this can cause

immediate overload shut down.

At 2,000 watts continuous output, this inverter requires a DC power supply

(battery bank) that can continuously supply 200 amps at 12V DC for the

duration of the run time.

Conﬁguring the Battery Bank

To determine the minimum battery ampere-hour rating that you will need to

operate appliances from the inverter and any DC appliances powered by the

battery bank, follow these steps:

1. List the maximum continuous wattage that the inverter has to supply.

2. Estimate the number of hours the appliances will be in use between

battery recharges. This will vary depending on appliances. For example,

a typical home-use coffee maker draws 500 watts during its brew time

of 5 minutes. It maintains the temperature of the pot, requiring 100 watts.

Typical use of a microwave oven is only for a few minutes. Some longer

operating time appliances are lamps, TVs, computers and refrigerator/

freezers.

Determine the total watt-hours of energy needed. This is done by multiplying

average power consumption in watts by hours of run time. For example: 500

watts for 10 hours = 5000 watt hours. To get an estimate of the maximum

current (in amps) that a battery bank must be capable of delivering to the

inverter, divide the load watts by ten. For example a 500 watt appliance load

will need 50 amps at 12 volts DC. Using the 500 watts (or 50 amps) for 10

hours example as above, then 50 amps is needed for 10 hours. This provides

us with the basic amp-hours (AH) of battery that is required. Ten hours at 50

amps equals 500 amp-hours (AH). There are additional factors that determine

actual run time. These include:

• AC appliance load and time in use (basic AH).

• Cable gauge and length (cable losses).

• Charge level of the batteries (between use, chargers have to be able to

fully charge the batteries).

• Temperature of the batteries (colder batteries provide fewer amps).

• Age and condition of the batteries (older batteries lose AH capacity).

• Compliance with turning off unnecessary AC loads.

• Use of DC appliances and compliance with turning off unnecessary DC

loads.

Derating the Battery Bank

Most lead-acid batteries have a rating expressed in amp-hours (AH). The most

common rating of AH is “at the 20 hour rate”.

NOTE: Despite several internet explanations, there is no relationship between

cold cranking amps (CCA) and ampere-hours (AH).

For example, if a 20 AH battery is discharged at a 1 amp rate, is will take 20

hours to discharge that battery. The terms “charged” and “discharged” relate

to actual battery voltage. This means that the output voltage of a nominal

12 volt battery starts at 13.4 volts (fully charged) then drops to 10.5 volts

(discharged). If the load on the battery causes the battery to discharge faster

than the 20 hour rate, the capacity (AH) of the battery is measurably reduced

(derated). In heavy battery discharge applications, double the estimated Amp

Hour rating and conﬁgure batteries to support this capacity. If the batteries

are frequently charged by an alternator, the Amp Hour rating of the battery

may be reduced.

Conﬁguring the battery bank

Batteries that are used indoors or inside a vehicle or vessel, should be deep-

cycle, sealed lead acid batteries.

NOTE: It is important that for any inverter installation to battery protection

fuses. Battery fuses are added to the positive (+) battery cable as close as

possible to the battery bank’s positive terminal. The fuse amperage rating

must be sized to allow simultaneous operation of all the AC appliances

to be powered, plus 20 percent safety factor. Fuses are very important to

protect equipment, batteries and personnel. The fuses protect against battery

explosion if the cables that connect to the inverter accidentally short.
