6 Intended use
eCaution
Never use the inverter on vehicles where the positive terminal of
the battery is connected to the chassis.
Inverters PP1002, PP1004, PP2002 and PP2004 are used for supplying
power to 230 V consumers with a 12 V or 24 V power supply:
12 V: PP1002 and PP2002
24 V: PP1004 and PP2004
The inverters are suitable for use in caravans, commercial vehicles and
motor and sailing vessels.
7 Technical description
Inverters PP1000 and PP2000 consist of two function units:
Inverter switch: generates 230 V AC power from a battery voltage of
–12 V: PP1002 and PP2002
–24 V: PP1004 and PP2004
Mains priority circuit: switches automatically between 230 V of external
mains voltage (e.g. on a camping site) and a battery generated 230 V
power supply
The external supply has priority. If no more external voltage is available,
the output socket is disconnected from the external power supply and
connected to the inverter voltage. This ensures that the output socket
always has a power supply of 230 V.
From inverter operation to mains power supply:
There is a delay when switching from inverter operation (whereby the
230 V AC power is produced from the battery voltage) to the mains
power supply.
When the plug is inserted in the outside socket (camping site, harbour)
the inverter is switched off after a delay of approx. 4 s. After a further 2 s,
the mains power supply is switched through. This gives the devices
connected enough time to switch off properly.
From mains power to inverter operation:
A delay also occurs when switching from mains power to inverter
operation.

Technical description PerfectPower
30
If the mains supply fails, the inverter switches on after 2 seconds.
eCaution
When switching over, any devices connected should be switched
off. Because they do not receive voltage for 2 s, they may have to
be switched back on.
The inverter is equipped with protection against thermal and electrical
overloading, as well as excess and insufficient voltage. The inverter switches
off:
If its internal temperature is too high
If the load exceeds the values listed in the technical data
If the input voltage is too high or too low
A single consumer or a socket distribution system can be connected to the
inverter to create an on-board 230 V supply with several sockets.
The device is equipped at delivery with galvanic isolation. For the safe
operation of multiple consumers, it is essential that a circuit breaker (residual
current circuit breaker) is built into the socket distribution circuit and the
grounding bridge is set in the inverter.
INote:
Note when connecting devices with an electrical drive (such as
power drills and refrigerators), that they often need more power
than is stated on the type plate.
The inverter can be switched on manually or using a remote control.
Cooling is provided by a fan and is load-dependent.
