About This Guide

Purpose

The purpose of this Operator’s Guide is to provide procedures for

operating the PowerHub 1800.

Scope

The Guide provides safety guidelines, detailed planning and setup

information, and procedures for operating the inverter. It does not provide

operational or troubleshooting information. It does not provide details

about particular brands of batteries. Consult individual battery

manufacturers for this information.

Audience

The PowerHub is an entry-level inverter system. This Guide is intended

for anyone who needs to operate the PowerHub 1800. Permanent

installations should be done by certified technicians or electricians.

Installers should have adequate knowledge of national and local electric

code to ensure code-compliance by inspection from the local electric

authority.

Organization

This Guide is organized into three chapters and one appendix.

Chapter 1 describes the operational features and functions of the

PowerHub 1800. This section details how the unit functions as an

inverter, provides information on the control panel, and describes

operating limits for inverter operation.

Chapter 2 contains information on operating the PowerHub 1800.

Chapter 3 explains how to troubleshoot the PowerHub 1800 and describes

the error codes that may be displayed on the LCD.

Appendix A provides electrical and physical specifications for the

PowerHub 1800.

Important Safety Instructions

1. Before installing and using the PowerHub 1800, read all instructions

and cautionary markings on the PowerHub, the batteries, and in both

the Installation Guide and the Operator’s Guide.

2. The PowerHub is intended for indoor use only. Do not expose the

PowerHub to rain, snow, or spray. To reduce risk of fire hazard, do

not cover or obstruct the ventilation openings. Do not install the

PowerHub in a zero-clearance compartment. Overheating may result.

3. The PowerHub may connect to as many as three sources of DC Power

and one source of AC Power. To reduce the risk of electrical shock,

disconnect all sources of AC and DC power from the PowerHub

before attempting any maintenance or cleaning or working on any

circuits connected to the PowerHub. Turning off controls will not

eliminate this risk.

4. Use only attachments that are intended for use with this product.

Doing otherwise may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury

to persons.

5. To avoid a risk of fire and electric shock, make sure that all of the

installation wiring is in good condition and that wire is not

undersized. Do not operate the PowerHub with damaged or

substandard wiring.

6. Do not operate the PowerHub if it has received a sharp blow, been

dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way. If the PowerHub is

damaged, see the “Return Procedure” on page WA–3.

WARNING

This chapter contains important safety and operating instructions. Read and keep

this Operator’s Guide for future reference.

WARNING: Limitations on use

The PowerHub 1800 is not intended for use in connection with life support

systems or other medical equipment or devices.

WARNING

To avoid the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning, generators are not to be used

indoors. When generators are used outdoors there must be sufficient circulation

to vent the carbon monoxide.

Safety

vi 975-0288-01-01

7. Do not disassemble the PowerHub, except where noted to wire it for a

permanent installation or to install batteries. The PowerHub 1800

contains no user-serviceable parts. See “Warranty” on page WA–1 for

instructions on obtaining service. Attempting to service the

PowerHub yourself may result in a risk of electrical shock or fire and

will void your warranty. Internal capacitors remain charged after all

power is disconnected.

8. The PowerHub must be provided with an equipment-grounding

conductor. Grounding and all other wiring must comply with national

and local codes and regulations.

9. The PowerHub 1800 is not intended for use as an uninterruptible

power supply (UPS).

Precautions When Working With Batteries

1. Use only SEALED batteries with the PowerHub 1800.

2. Follow all instructions published by the battery manufacturer.

3. Working in the vicinity of batteries may be dangerous. Unsealed

batteries can generate explosive gases during normal operation.

Therefore, you must read this guide and follow the instructions

exactly before installing or using the PowerHub.

4. This equipment contains components which tend to produce arcs or

sparks. To prevent fire or explosion, do not install the PowerHub in

locations that require ignition-protected equipment. This includes any

space containing gasoline-powered machinery, fuel tanks, as well as

joints, fittings, or other connections between components of the fuel

system.

5. To reduce the risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and

those published by the battery manufacturer.

6. Make sure that nothing is blocking the air vents on the back of the

enclosure.

7. Never smoke or allow a spark or flame near the batteries.

8. Use caution to reduce the risk of dropping a metal tool on the

batteries. It could spark or short circuit the battery or other electrical

parts and could cause an explosion.

9. Remove all personal metal items, like rings, bracelets, and watches

when working with batteries. Batteries can produce a short circuit

current high enough to weld metal, causing a severe burn.

10. Have someone within range of your voice or close enough to come to

your aid when you work near a battery.

11. Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid

touching your eyes while working near batteries.

12. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid

contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.

WARNING: Fire or Explosion Hazard

Safety

viii 975-0288-01-01

13. If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap

and water. If acid enters your eye, immediately flood it with running

cold water for at least twenty minutes and get medical attention

immediately.

Precautions for Using Rechargeable Appliances

Most rechargeable battery-operated equipment uses a separate charger or

transformer that is plugged into an AC receptacle and produces a low

voltage charging output.

Some chargers for small rechargeable batteries can be damaged if

connected to the PowerHub. Do not use the following with the PowerHub:

• Small battery-operated appliances like flashlights, razors, and night

lights that can be plugged directly into an AC receptacle to recharge.

• Some chargers for battery packs used in power hand tools. These

affected chargers display a warning label stating that dangerous

voltages are present at the battery terminals.
