A Wor d About WHISTLER Power Inverters. WHISTLER inverters convert low voltage, direct curr ent (DC) to 110 volt alternating household current (AC). The AC output is called “modified sine wave”. See “T echnical Operating Principles” section for more information.
INVERTER BASICS Getting Started Power equipment and appliances which operate with motors or tubes requir e an initial surge of power to get them up and running.
INVERTER BASICS Don’t Push It. Although your WHISTLER inverter has the capacity to pro- vide power output (excess current) equal to appr oximately two times its rated wattage capacity for a very bri.
OPERA TION Making the Connection. This inverter is designed to connect to your 12 volt battery using the light socket plug or by the supplied battery cables (for appliances over 150 watts* 400 watt model). Making The Connection. 1. Make certain that the inverter rocker switch is in the OFF (O) position.
• The use of an extension cor d from the inverter to the appli- ance or equipment being operated will not significantly decrease the power being generated by the inverter . For best operating results, the extension cor d should be no more than 50 feet long.
13 ADDITIONAL FEA TURES Automatic Shut Down & Related Safety Features. Each inverter has an unique LED indicator warning light sys- tem which operates in conjunction with the automatic shut down feature . These indicator lights operate as follows: GREEN LED: System ready .
2. Low Battery V oltage Alarm/Shutdown Protection a) When the input voltage from the 12 volt power sour ce drops below 10.5 volts, an audible tone will be hear d. This is the low battery voltage alarm. b) The inverter will automatically shut down when the input voltage drops below 9.
17 16 OPERA TING PRINCIPLES OPERA TING PRINCIPLES majority of AC voltmeters are calibrated for RMS voltage and assume that the measured waveform will be a pur e sine wave.
• Befor e attempting to use medical equipment see page 4. • Use only fuses which conform with the design specifica- tions outlined in this manual. • When operating the inverter with the engine of f, start the engine every hour and let it run for at least 10 minutes to rechar ge the battery .
