Thank you for choosing a Powersine DC to AC inverter as your power source. The Powersine inverter series are one of the most sophisticated inverters available today. With high reliability, efficiency and sine quality as our most important design goals, the Powersine inverter series is developed to serve you with safe and trouble free operation for years. Your Powersine inverter features an advanced micro processor control system with a MOSFET power stage and a low loss toroidal transformer. This toroidal transformer in combination with well over dimensioned power components, ensures a very...

For best operating results, the inverter should be placed on a flat surface. To ensure a trouble free operation of the inverter, it must be used in locations that meet the following requirements : a. Avoid any contact with water on the inverter. Do not expose the inverter to rain or moisture. b. Do not place the unit in direct sunlight or other high temperature environments. Ambient air temperature should be between 0 C and 50 C (humidity < 95% non condensing). Note that in some extreme situations the inverter’s case temperature can exceed 70 C. c. Do not obstruct the airflow around the...

MAKE SURE THAT WHEN INSTALLING THE REMOTE SWITCH, THE BATTERY IS NOT CONNECTED YET. CAUTION Battery requirements For correct operation, the battery voltage should be between 0.92xVnom and 1.23xVnom where Vnom is 12V, 24V or 48V depending on model, and must be able to supply sufficient current to your inverter. The following table displays the recommended battery capacity per inverter type : Inverter type : PS200-12 PS200-24 PS200-48 PS300-12 PS350-24 PS450-48 PS600-12 PS800-24 PS800-48 Iin at Pnom : Recommended battery cap. : 18 ADC  50 Ah 9 ADC  30 Ah 4 ADC  20 Ah 26 ADC  100 Ah 15 ADC...

is unavoidable to extend these wires, use a wire gauge of at least 1.5 times larger than the ones supplied with the inverter. Maximum recommended battery wire length is approx. 3 meters. 2.4.1 General precautions about working with batteries 1. Working in vicinity of a lead acid battery is dangerous. Batteries can generate explosive gases during operation. Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of a battery. Provide sufficient ventilation around the battery. 2. Wear eye and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while working near batteries. Wash your hands when done. 3. If...

Before you connect your appliance(s) to the inverter, always check it’s maximum power consumption. Do not connect appliances to the inverter needing more than the nominal power rating of the inverter continuously. Some appliances like motors or pumps, are drawing large inrush currents in a startup situation. In these situations, it is possible that the startup current exceeds the overcurrent trip level of the inverter. In this case the output voltage will shortly decrease to limit the output current of the inverter. If this overcurrent trip level is continuously exceeded, the inverter will...

Note that some loads like TV/video equipment (with standby mode) and alarm clocks need continuous power so that the ASB mode can not be used. With some small non compensated loads, it is possible that the inverter jumps from continuous output to pulsed output and vice versa all the time. In this case you have to connect a small additional load to the AC output. IF THE INVERTER JUMPED INTO AN ‘ERROR MODE’ (SEE CHAPTER 3.1) DUE TO AN OVERLOAD OR SHORT CIRCUIT, THE INVERTER WILL AUTOMATICALLY RESTART AFTER ABOUT 18 SECONDS. In case of an over temperature error, the inverter will automatically...

position. Clean battery terminals or inverter wire contacts. Tighten battery terminal screws. The inverter has to be returned for service. Replace battery Poor contact between the inverter’s battery wires and the battery terminals. Blown inverter fuse Very poor battery condition PROBLEM : ‘Battery voltage too low or too high’ error keeps on appearing Possible cause : Poor battery condition Poor connection or inadequate wiring between battery and inverter, resulting in too much voltage drop Replace battery or charge it first When extending the battery wires of the inverter make sure you use...
