Proper installation is crucial for the inverter's performance and safety. Follow these guidelines carefully.
3.1 Ibi
Install the inverter in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and flammable materials. Ensure there is adequate space around the unit for airflow, especially around the cooling fan vents.
3.2 DC Input Connection (12VDC)
Connect the inverter to a 12VDC battery bank using appropriate gauge cables. Ensure correct polarity: connect the positive (+) terminal of the inverter to the positive (+) terminal of the battery, and the negative (-) terminal of the inverter to the negative (-) terminal of the battery. Use fuses or circuit breakers on the DC input line as recommended by local electrical codes and the inverter's specifications.

3.3 AC Output Connection (230VAC)
Connect your AC appliances to the inverter's 230VAC output socket. Ensure the total power consumption of all connected devices does not exceed the inverter's rated output power (1500W continuous). Avoid connecting high-surge devices that exceed the inverter's surge capacity.

3.4 Asopọ Iṣakoso Latọna jijin
The inverter supports a remote control function via the Green Terminal. Refer to the remote control unit's manual for specific wiring and operation instructions. This allows for convenient power ON/OFF control from a distance.
3.5 Ilẹ-ilẹ
Proper grounding is essential for safety. Connect the chassis ground terminal of the inverter to a reliable earth ground or the vehicle chassis (for mobile applications) using a suitable ground wire.
4. Awọn ilana Iṣiṣẹ
Once properly installed, operating the inverter is straightforward.
4.1 Titan / Pa a
- Lati Fi agbara: Ensure all DC and AC connections are secure. Flip the main power switch on the inverter to the 'ON' position. The indicator lights will illuminate, signifying the inverter is operational.
- Lati Paarẹ: Disconnect all AC loads from the inverter. Flip the main power switch to the 'OFF' position.
4.2 Load Management
Always ensure that the total wattage of all appliances connected to the inverter does not exceed its continuous power rating. Overloading the inverter can cause it to shut down or sustain damage. For inductive loads (e.g., motors, refrigerators), consider their surge power requirements, which can be several times their continuous rating.
4.3 LED Atọka
The inverter features LED indicators to display its operational status and any fault conditions. Consult the detailed specifications or the manufacturer's full manual for a complete explanation of each indicator's meaning (e.g., power, fault, overload, low battery).
