DESCRIPTION

Harness your vehicle's battery to efficiently power office equipment on the road or power tools at a work site. Continuously supplies up to 3000 watts of 120V AC power to 4 AC outlets from any 12V battery or automotive DC source. Includes a PV remote and 25 feet of cable. Super-compact, lightweight metal case design is among the smallest, most rugged inverters available at this power level.

KEY BUYING POINTS

Converts DC power into 3000 watts of continuous 120V AC power 15- and 20-amp outlets provide 120V AC power Includes "Battery Saver" low voltage alarm/shutdown Heavy-duty DC input terminals assure solid connection to battery. Dual connections provide high wattage to support heavy equipment loads. Quiet electricity for TVs, DVD players, microwaves, tools, coffeemakers and game systems Operating mode switch controls inverter operation. Remote control jack provides optional remote monitoring and control (when used with FREE, included LED/switch module) Bonus Remote Control LED/Switch Module controls and monitors your inverter from virtually anywhere within your vehicle with use of included extra-long cable. Allows multiple mounting options, including behind or below a dashboard or compartment. Features daisy-chain capability Battery charge level LEDs indicate the approximate charge level (high/medium/low) of connected batteries Connected load level LEDs indicate the approximate wattage load level (high/medium/low) of connected equipment Sturdy extruded aluminum case stands up to the toughest work environments Battery conservation charge dial conserves battery power by setting the low-load level at which the inverter automatically shuts off Cooling fans provide cooler operation, lengthening inverter service life Circuit breakers guard the inverter against potentially damanging equipment overload Mounting flanges provide safe, fixed installation Grooved cooling surface provides additional surface area for more efficient cooling Grounding lug connects to vehicle ground

COMPLETE SPECIFICATIONS SYSTEM OVERVIEW System overview: Compact 12 volt DC to 120 volt AC power inverter. 3000 watts continuous / 6000 watts peak. Requires hardwire DC installation, 4 AC outlets. Includes corded remote power control module. Voltage compatibility: Compatible with 12VDC automotive or battery power sources Frequency compatibility: 60 Hz OUTPUT Output watt capacity (watts): 3000 watts continuous, supports peak output up to 6000 watts for up to 500 milliseconds Output nominal voltage: 120V nominal Output voltage regulation: Maintains PWM sine wave output voltage of 115 VAC (+/- 8 VAC) Output frequency regulation: 60 Hz (+/- 3 Hz) Outlet quantity / type: Includes 4 AC outlets (2 NEMA 5-15R and 2 NEMA 5-20R) Overload protection: Automatic overload protection shuts down inverter system in the event of overloads. Output is protected by 2 built-in 20A circuit breakers (each controlling power to 2 outlets). Inverter and electrical system are further protected via set of 6 40A automotive input fuses. INPUT Maximum input amps / watts: Full continuous load - 286A at 12VDC, No load - 1.5A at 12VDC, Shutdown / load sense mode - less than 100 microamps Input connection type: DC INPUT: Set of 4 DC bolt-down terminals (2 red / 2 black). AC INPUT: hardwire Input cord length: User supplies cabling. Minimum gauges for full load operation: 0 (10 ft max), 00 or 2/0 (13 ft max), Twin 00 using 4 conductors (26 ft) Recommended electrical service: Requires 12VDC input source capable of delivering 286A for the required duration (when used at full capacity). For automotive applications, professional hardwire installation with 500A battery system fusing is recommended. BATTERY DC system voltage: DC input operating range 10-15VDC. Alarm sounds as voltage drops to 10.5V. Auto-shutdown occurs at 10V. LEDS ALARMS & SWITCHES Front panel LEDs: Set of 6 LEDs offer continuous status information on load percentage (5 levels reported) and battery charge level (7 levels reported). See manual for sequences. Alarms: Dual function alarm indicates overload conditions or low DC input voltage of 10.5V or less. Switches: 3 position rocker switch enables on/off power control, plus "remote" setting which enables inverter to be remotely powered on or off when used in conjunction with included APSRM2 module.
