Pagina afdrukkenINTRODUCTION
To get the most out of your 8ZED Inverter, proper
installation is critical. Please read the installation and
operating instructions in this manual carefully before
installing and using your 8ZED Inverter. Pay special
attention to the CAUTION: statements in this manual.
CAUTION: statements identify conditions or practices
which could result in damage to your 8ZED Inverter or to
other equipment. Proper procedures not followed could result
in the warranty becoming void.
INTRODUCTION
The power source must provide between 11 and 15 volts
DC and must be able to supply sufficient current to operate
the load. As a rough guide line, divide the power
consumption of the load (in watts) by 10 to obtain the current
(in amperes) that the power source must deliver.
CAUTION: The 8ZED Inverter should not be used while
driving your vehicle using the alligator clips.
CAUTION: The 8ZED Inverter must be connected only to
batteries with a normal output voltage of 12 volts. The 8ZED
Inverter will not operate from a 6 volt battery and will be
damaged if it is connected to a 24 volt battery.
CAUTION: Rechargeable batteries and devices with
rechargeable batteries may not be suitable for use with the
8ZED Inverter. The rechargeable batteries, recharging
transformer and/or the 8ZED Inverter may be damaged when
trying to recharge devices of 10 volts and higher. Refer to the
manufacturers specifications when using these devices.
SUITABLE POWER SOURCE
In order to operate the inverter and supply power to an
appliance a suitable 12V DC power supply is required. This
can be a vehicle, boat or caravan battery, portable power
pack or an independent 12V lead acid battery. For most
applications, a deep cycle battery is recommended for best
performance.
BATTERY OPERATING TIME
The typical vehicle battery has a minimum operating time
of 1 to 2 hours, depending on the current use of the load
being driven and the size of the battery. We recommend that
the operator start the vehicle every hour to recharge the
battery system. This will prevent unexpected shut downs of
equipment and will ensure that there is always sufficient
battery capacity to start the engine.
PLACEMENT OF THE INVERTER
For best operating results, the 8ZED inverter should be
placed on a flat surface, such as the floor or seat of the
vehicle. The inverter should only be used in locations that
meet the following requirements:
A.) DRY – Keep away from water. Do not allow water to
drip or splash on the 8ZED Inverter.
B.) COOL – Ideal ambient air temperature should be
between 10 degrees and 33 degrees C (50 degrees and
90 degrees F). Do not place the inverter on or near a
heating vent or any piece of equipment which is
generating heat above room temperature. If avoidable,
do not place the inverter in direct sunlight.
C.) VENTILATED – Allow at least two inches of
clearance around the 8ZED Inverter for air flow. Do
not place anything on or over the inverter during
operation. Make sure that the air is allowed to circulate
freely around the unit.
D.) SAFETY – Do not use the 8ZED Inverter near
flammable materials or in any location which may
accumulate flammable fumes or gases, such as the
battery compartment of your car, truck, RV or boat.
This product is not suitable for use while travelling
using battery clamps. The length of the wire cables and
battery clamps are not designed for this operation. If
you wish to operate the 8ZED inverter while moving,
it must be permanently mounted and wired.
CONNECTING TO THE POWER SOURCE
CAUTION: Before making any connections ensure
inverter is switched off and has no AC appliances plugged
into the AC output sockets.
•
Connect the ring terminal on the negative lead (Black)
to the negative (Black) DC terminal on the back of the
inverter.
•
Connect the battery clip (Black) or ring terminal on the
other end of the lead to the negative DC supply or (-)
battery terminal.
•
Connect the ring terminal on the positive lead (Red) to
the positive (Red) DC terminal on the back of the
inverter.
•
Connect the battery clip (Red) or ring terminal on the
other end of the lead to the positive DC supply or (+)
battery terminal.
FIGURE 1- Loosen the caps on the terminals and slide the
lugs between the cap and the base. Then tighten firmly.

"HARD WIRED" CONNECTION
When mounting the inverter in a vehicle, caravan, boat or
cabin it may be preferable to use longer DC battery cables
than those supplied, so that the inverter can be placed in a
more convenient, cooler or more protected location.
