Important Safety Instructions
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
This manual contains important instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation, operation and storage of all Tripp Lite
Inverters.
Location Warnings
Install your Inverter (whether for a mobile or stationary application) in a location or compartment that minimizes exposure to heat,
dust, direct sunlight and moisture.
Although your Inverter is moisture resistant, it is NOT waterproof. Flooding the unit with water will cause it to short circuit and could
cause personal injury due to electric shock. Never immerse the unit, and avoid any area where standing water might accumulate.
Mounting should be in the driest location available.
Leave a minimum of 2 inches (5 cm) clearance at front and back of the Inverter for proper ventilation. The heavier the load of
connected equipment, the more heat will be generated by the unit. Any compartment that contains the Inverter must be properly
ventilated with adequate outside airflow to avoid overheating the Inverter.
Do not install the Inverter directly near magnetic storage media, as this may result in data corruption.
Do not install near flammable materials, fuel or chemicals.
Do not mount unit with its front or rear panel facing down (at any angle). Mounting in this manner will seriously inhibit the
unit's internal cooling, eventually causing product damage not covered under warranty.
Battery Connection Warnings
Multiple battery systems must be comprised of batteries of identical voltage, age, amp-hour capacity and type.
Because explosive hydrogen gas can accumulate near batteries if they are not kept well ventilated, your batteries should not be
installed (whether for a mobile or stationary application) in a “dead air” compartment. Ideally, any compartment would have some
ventilation to outside air.
Sparks may result during final battery connection. Always observe proper polarity as batteries are connected.
Do not allow objects to contact the two DC input terminals. Do not short or bridge these terminals together. Serious personal injury
or property damage could result.
Connect the Inverter to the battery with recommended DC fusing (see Battery Connection).
Ground Connection Warnings
Safe operation requires connecting the Inverter's main grounding screw directly to the frame of the vehicle or earth ground.
Equipment Connection Warnings
Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can reasonably be expected to cause the
failure of the life support equipment or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended. Do not use this
equipment in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen or nitrous oxide.
You may experience uneven performance results if you connect a surge suppressor, line conditioner or UPS system to the output of the
Inverter.
Operation Warnings
Your Inverter does not require routine maintenance. Do not open the device for any reason. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
Potentially lethal voltages exist within the Inverter as long as the battery is connected. During any service work, the battery should
therefore be disconnected.
Do not connect or disconnect batteries while the Inverter is operating. Dangerous arcing may result.
