Overview
Introduction
The Renogy PGH1 Series Battery Power Inverter transforms the DC power stored in
batteries into standard household AC power for consumer electronic needs. It features an
ECO power-saving mode in order to conserve your system's energy and even has a switch
to change the frequency between 50Hz / 60Hz. As a pure sine wave inverter, it is capable of
producing cleaner, smoother, quieter, and more reliable electricity to operate fans, lights, and
other electronics without interference.
Key Features
zRobust and sleek design
zPure sine wave output (THD<3%)
zExcellent Surge Rating: 2x the Power Rating
zOptimized for 12VDC system voltage
zEasy-to-read LED indicator display
zMultiple protection features (LVD, HVD, AC Overload and Over Temperature)
zClean power for safe operation of sensitive electronics
zPower Saving Mode to conserve energy
Pure Sine Wave
The Renogy PGH1 Series Battery Power Inverter output a pure sine wave similar to the
waveform of the grid power. In a pure sine wave, the voltage rises and falls in a smooth
fashion with very low harmonic distortion and cleaner utility-like power.

This gives users stable enough power to operate tools, fans, lights, computers, and other
electronics without any interference. Pure sine wave inverters are in many cases more
efficient, allowing users to use less energy and allow for more device capability. The main
advantage to pure sine wave inverters is that they are used to operate sensitive electronic
devices that require a high quality waveform with little harmonic distortion. Almost any
electronic device could be powered using a pure sine wave inverter.

WARNING
zMake sure inverter is in the off position before connecting anything.
CAUTION
zDo not over tighten the terminals. This could potentially damage the inverter.
Location Recommendations
WARNING
zNever install the inverter in a sealed enclosure with flooded batteries. Gas can
accumulate and there is a risk of explosion.
Ensure installation follows the following guidelines:
1. Cool, dry, well-ventilated area: Heat is the worst enemy for electronic equipment.
Inverters must be in an area where the fans are not blocked or where they are not hit
directly by the sun. They should be in an area free of any kind of moisture and allow for
clearance of at least 10” around the inverter to provide for adequate ventilation.
2. Protection against fire hazard: the inverter should be away from any flammable
material, liquids, or any other combustible material. The inverter can spark and the
consequences could be severe.
3. Close proximity to battery bank: prevent excessive voltage drop by keeping the
inverter close to the battery bank and having a properly sized wire going from the battery
bank to the inverter.
4. Limiting electromagnetic interference (EMI): ensure the inverter is firmly grounded to
a building, vehicle, or earth grounded. Keep the inverter away from EMI receptors such
as TVs, radios, and other audio/visual electronics to prevent damage / interference to the
equipment.
5. Secure mounting: The inverter should be standalone or mounted by using the outlying
terminals with M6 or M8 screws on the inverter.
WARNING
zThe inverter should be mounted to a solid horizontal base. Vertical installations need to
ensure clearance of fans for proper cooling. Never mount the inverter upside down due
to lack of heat dissipation.

Sizing your Battery Bank
Battery types and capacity relate to overall inverter performance. To size a battery bank, you
need to identify the loads that you will be utilizing, as well as an estimate (hours/day) you
will be using the load. The inverter is only compatible with 12V battery banks and oversizing
should be considered due to efficiency losses.
1. Determine your Watts (Amps * Volts): every electronic will have a sticker or plate
identifying the watts directly (W) or will show you the voltage value (V) as well as
amperage (A) which need to be multiplied to get Watts. The formula is below:
Watts (W) = Volts (V) * Amps (A)
Fan Watts = 120V * 0.4A = 48Watts
2. Estimate Load Run: Time in Watt-Hours (Wh)—Estimate how many hours per day you
will be using the load and multiply this by your Watts per load.
Fan Watts * 12 hours = Watt-Hour (Wh)
46W * 12h = 576Wh
3. Determine Battery Capacity in Amp-Hour (Ah): Divide your Load Run Watt-Hour result
by the battery voltage. This inverter is 12V, so we will use this as the reference:
Load Run-Time (Wh) / Battery Voltage (V) = Amp-Hour (Ah)
576Wh / 12V = 48 Ah
4. Oversize the Battery: The calculated Amp-Hour value represents the minimum size
battery capacity to run your load for your intended time. Note that this assumes 100%
use of a battery, which is not recommended. Assuming 50% depth of discharge (DoD),
you want to divide by this value and then multiply by a factor of 1.25 to account for some
efficiency losses.
NOTE
zYou will need a battery charging source as this is a non-charging inverter and will only
work to deplete the battery.
(Amp-Hour / DoD%) * Efficiency Losses = Recommended Amp-Hour
(48Ah / 50% DoD) * 1.2 = Approx. 115Ah
A 115Ah battery bank, or close, will be able to support a 12-hour run time while also
prolonging battery life for the best system size possible.
NOTE
zThis is an example and actual quantities vary by battery capacity and rates of discharge.
Location Recommendations Sizing your Battery Bank

Wiring
09
Wiring
Grounding
If available, the chassis ground lug should be connected to a ground point such as a vehicle
chassis or boat grounding system. In fixed locations, connect the ground lug to earth ground.
The connections to ground must be tight and against bare metal. Whether using the inverter
in a mobile application, such as an RV, or in a building, grounding is highly recommended.
The recommended wire size for grounding is 14AWG (1000W), 12AWG (2000W), and 10
AWG (3000W) insulated copper strand wire.
The neutral (common) is not bonded to the chassis ground. Therefore, when chassis is
connected to ground, the neutral conductor is not grounded. At no point should the chassis
ground and the neutral conductor of the inverter be bonded. Bonding the chassis ground and
the neutral conductor of the inverter or connecting the inverter to household AC distribution
wiring will damage the inverter and void the warranty. For more information regarding
grounding, users and/or installers must consult with the Local and National Electric Codes
(NEC) for more specific grounding regulations and suggestions as they can change per
scenario.
WARNING
zAt no point should the chassis ground and the neutral conductor of the inverter be
bonded. Bonding the chassis ground and the neutral conductor of the inverter or
connecting the inverter to household or recreational AC distribution wiring will damage
the inverter and void the warranty.
CAUTION
zDo not over-tighten the M4 Ground Screw. The recommended torque is 1.5~2.0N-m /
13~18.2 lbf-in.
DC Wiring
WARNING
zThe Renogy Pure Sine Wave Inverters are suitable for 12V battery bank systems ONLY.
Not following the minimum DC requirement will cause irreversible damage to the inverter.
CAUTION
zBe careful of the positive and negative poles. Reversing the poles might cause
permanent damage to the inverter. It will surely blow the internal fuse.
NOTE
zDamage to the Renogy inverters due to reverse polarity is NOT covered by warranty.
The input terminals of the inverters have large capacitors connected to them. Once a
positive and negative wire are connected to the terminals, it will complete the circuit,
and commence drawing a heavy current momentarily. As a result, there may be a
sparking occurring even if the inverter is in the off position. To minimize sparking, it is
recommended that the user have the appropriate size wire feeding into the inverters and/
or install an external fuse leading into the inverter.

▇Recommended Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
A ground-fault circuit interrupter, or GFCI, is a device that help protect people from electric
shocks by de-energizing a circuit or portion of a circuit within an established period of time
when a current to ground exceeds some predetermined value that is less than that required
to operate the overcurrent device (circuit breaker or fuse) of the supply circuit. GFCIs are
usually required in wet or damp locations.
While the inverter is equipped with a GFCI, it is recommended to install an external GFCI
where you can manually test the circuit.
The following table lists GFCIs that meet the specifications and will function properly when
they are connected to the AC Outlets of the inverter.
