IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING : EXPLOSION HAZARD
PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORKING WITH BATTERIES
WARNING: EXPLOSION OR FIRE HAZARD
This section contains important safety and operating instructions. Read and keep
this user manual for future reference.
1. Before installing and using the PURESINE inverter, read all instructions and
cautionary markings on the PURESINE, the batteries, and all appropriate
sections of this manual.
2. Do not expose the PURESINE inverter to rain, snow, or spray water. To reduce
risk of fire hazard, do not cover or obstruct the ventilation openings. Do not
install the PURESINE inverter in a zero-clearance compartment. Overheating
may result.
3. To avoid a risk of fire and electric shock, make sure that existing wiring is in good
condition and that wire is not undersized. Do not operate the PURESINE with
damaged or substandard wiring.
4. Do not disassemble the PURESINE. It contains no user-serviceable parts. See
the WARRANTY section for instructions or obtaining service. Attempting to
service the PURESINE inverter yourself may result in a risk of electrical shock or
fire. Internal capacitors remain charged after all power is disconnected.
5. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect both AC and DC power from the
PURESINE before attempting any maintenance or cleaning or working on any
circuits connected to the PURESINE inverter. Turning off controls will not reduce
this risk.
1. Working in the vicinity of lead-acid batteries is dangerous. Batteries generate
explosive gases during normal operation. Therefore, you must read this guide
and follow the instructions exactly before installing or using your inverter.
2. This equipment contains components which tend to produce arcs or sparks. To
prevent fire or explosion, do not install the PURESINE inverter in compartments
containing batteries or flammable materials, or 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.
1. Make sure the area around the battery is well ventilated.
2. Never smoke or allow a spark or flame near the engine or batteries.
3. Use caution to reduce the risk of dropping a metal tool on the battery. It could
spark or short circuit the battery or other electrical parts and could cause an
explosion.
4. Remove all metal items, like rings, bracelets, and watches when working with
lead-acid batteries. Lead-acid batteries produce a short circuit current high
enough to weld metal to skin, causing a severe burn.
5. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin,
clothing, or eyes.
6. Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid touching your eyes
while working near the batteries.
7. 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.
8. If you need to remove a battery, always remove the ground terminal from the
battery first. Make sure all accessories are off, so you don't cause a spark.
