5. BATTERY
1) Current and voltage of batteryThe battery is used to supplythe DC input voltage
required by the product, and itsrated voltage must be in line with the rated input
voltage of the inverter, beyondthe input voltage range of the inverter, and the cross
connection will cause the product tobe under voltage or under voltage protection.
At the same time, the battery mustprovide enough current for inverter,a small capacity
battery is not able to drive highpower appliances, in this case, usually dueto excessive
current and battery discharge the batteryterminal voltage low, under voltage protection
products appear
The simple formula for the batterycurrent is the load power / the battery voltage. As the
inverter itself will be part ofthe loss, so the actual current will be greater than this value
of about 10%. For example: thebattery voltage is 12VDC, the load power is 1000W,
then the actual current size ofthe battery is about 1000W 12V 110%=91.6A
2) Battery working time
The using time of battery dependson battery capacity (AH) and the power of the
connected load (W), the calculating methodis: Time (hours) =battery capacity (AH) x
battery output voltage (V) x efficiencyrate electrical power of using (W) suchas the
12V DC input inverter uses the12V battery, if thebattery capacity is 2000AH and at
this time the inverter is driving1000W power load, the efficiency rateis 90% when the
battery is full, according to theformula above, the battery use time =2000(AH) / (1000 /
12x110%) = 21.8 (Hour).This means the battery can be used for 21.8 hours.
Note: The above formula is the calculationresult of the battery discharging rate in 20
hours, that is, when the discharging currentof 2000 Ah battery doesnot exceed 100A,
the discharging time will be shortenedwhen the discharging current exceeds this value.
This part can refer to thebattery manufacturer's specifications, and whether the battery
is fully charged will also affectthis result.
6. CONNECTION
1) Grounding
The power inverter has a terminal onthe back panel marked "Grounding" or " ".
This is used to connect thechassis of the power inverter to the ground.
The ground terminal has already connectedto the ground wire ofAC output receptacle
through the internal connecting wire. Theground terminal must be connected to the
ground wire, which will vary depending onwhere the power inverter is installed. In a
vehicle, connect the ground terminal to thechassis of the vehicle. On the ship, connect
the ground terminal to the shipgrounding system; In a fixed position, connect the
ground terminal to the earth.
Warnings:
To makesure the firmness of the connection. The ground wire must be 14AWG (
2
2.08mm ) or even larger.
Do not operate the power inverter withoutconnecting to ground. Electric shock hazard
may result.
2) Connect to the battery
Please do all the safety precautions beforeconnection, then check whether the battery
voltage is in accordance with theinput voltage of the inverter. Only the voltage of
battery according with the requirements canbe allowed to connect with the inverter.
The connecting wire must be bigenough to bear current, or else the inverter can not
support big load because of voltagereduce caused by the small cross-sectional wire.
Depending on the below table, pleaseselect the input DC wire or larger one.

2. In high current, the inputDC wire may produce voltage drop,therefore, the operating
voltage should be subject to thevalue on the terminals. If thevoltage drop is too large,
it can increase the acreage ofthe section or reduce the lengthof the lead.
3.Connect cathode wire of the batteryto the cathode terminal (black) onthe back panel of
inverter and then connect the anodewire of the battery to theanode terminal (red) on
the inverter, and fix them.
Warnings:
Please wear eye patch and workclothes when working around the batteryto avoid the
acid and corrosive objects harm youreyes and skin.
Prepare enough water and soap. Incase the acid materials contact eyesor skin, clean
it by soap and water assoon as possible. If the acidmaterials spay to your eyes
accidentally, clean it bycold water immediately and then sent to hospital.
Do not put any combustible materialin the location of installation forspark will result
when it is connected to the battery.
Keep good ventilation. The battery mayproduce a little inflammable gas when itworks,
so keep away from the inverterand it is better to installthem in different space.
Fix the connecting wire of theinput DC, or it will result the over-reduction of the
voltage or over-temperature of the wire.
Reverse connection of the polarities orthe short circuit will burn the fuse or result the
permanence damage of the internal elementsof inverter.
Take awaythe metal accouterment, such as ring or watch, when installation to avoid
the short circuit.
Although there is over-voltageprotection, it may also cause damage of the inverter if
the input voltage is too high.
3).Connection of the ACappliance Put the power plug ofthe AC appliance loadinto the
output AC receptacle ofthe inverter directly.
Warnings:
1. Make sure that the switchesof the inverter and appliance powerare in OFF position
before connection.
2. Check the power cord. If itis damaged, it should be connected afterreplacement.
3. Each outlet of the inverterhas a given current rating ofthe manufacturer. It shallnot
exceed this value during use. Otherwise,the socket may be damaged byoverheating
and may cause an electric shock.The maximum output power of asingle socket is
shown in the following table:
8 . USAGE OF INVERTER
How to use a inverter
1) Check the output voltage andcapacity of the battery to makesure it applicable to the
requirement of the product use.
2) Connect the battery and theDC cable of the inverter toensure that the polarities do not
be reversed and in good contact.
3) Long press the switch ofinverter or of remoter for over0.5s and later on let itgo, if the
indicator lighter on the inverter oron the remoter box is on,it means that the inverter
start to work normally.This method can avoid effectively turning on the unit due to the
interference or any mistakes.
4) Switch off electrical appliances andput electrical appliance plug to the AC output
socket of inverter.And then switch on electrical appliance for using.
5) The cooling fans inside theinverter do not work when the unit power on. It doesn't run
until the case temperature rise upto 40 .
6) Switch off inverter and remoterto stop working. At thattime, the indicator lights in both
inverter and remoter are off.The inverter does not consume currentfrom battery when
it switched off
How to use USB outlet
The inverter provides two USB whichoffer stable 5V DC voltage; themaximum current
is 2.4A each, which candirectly provide power for the portable devicewith USB port.
Notice: Before use the USB power supply, please make sure the device can be
charged by USB and the maximumworking current is no more than2.4A
9. SOFT START TECHNOLOGY
The soft start technology built intothis inverter protects the unit fromdelivering too
much AC power at onceby gradually increasing the ACvoltage pushed out. To make
sure that you are utilizing thisfeature, turn on the appliance beingused before turning
on the inverter. Thisis especially necessary for equipment that has an inductive load or
electrical motor.

10. OUTPUT VOLTAGE AND WAVE FORM
The output voltage waveform of theinverter is called "quasi sine wave"or "modified
sine wave", it is a stepwaveform similar like household alternating current, this type of
waveform is applicable to most ofthe load, including linear or switchingpower supply,
transformer, electric motor etc..
Since the output voltage waveform of theinverter is different fromAC, RMS with
general analog or digital multimeter cannot accurately measure the output ofthe
inverter, please use the trueRMS digital multimeter to measure, such asFLUKE
177/179 multimeter
Note: Modified sine wave inverters are notsuitable for all electrical appliances.As far
as we know, unusableappliances include induction cookers and someair-conditioning
fans with capacitance voltage-reducing circuits.
11. WORKING INDICATORS
When the inverter works, the LCDdisplays the current battery power, input voltage and
output voltage. When the inverter isin the protection, the LCD displaysthe warning
sign and the current protective state, asfollows:
1) When the digital tube shows"LO", it indicates that it iscurrently under-voltage
protection.
2). When the digital tube shows"HI", it indicates that it isin the state of over-voltage
protection.
3). When the digital tube shows"OL", it indicates that it isin the state of output overloador
short circuit protection.
4). When the digital tube shows"OH", it indicates that it isin the state of overheating
protection.
