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

Inverter/Chargers.

Location Warnings

• Install your Inverter/Charger (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/Charger 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" clearance at front and back of the Inverter/Charger for proper ventilation. The heavier the load of connected

equipment, the more heat will be generated by the unit.

• Do not install the Inverter/Charger directly near magnetic storage media, as this may result in data corruption.

• Do not install near flammable materials, fuel or chemicals.

• Install EMS Inverter/Chargers in land vehicles only.

Battery Connection Warnings

• The Inverter/Charger will not operate (with or without utility power) until batteries are connected.

• 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.

Equipment Connection Warnings

• In life support applications where a malfunction or failure of a Tripp Lite EMS Inverter/Charger could result in failure of, or

significantly alter the performance of, a life support device or any medical device critical to a patient's health, such devices

should be provided with at least one backup power source by the ambulance operator.

• Corded models: Do not modify the Inverter/Charger’s plug or receptacle in a way that eliminates its ground connection. Do not use

power adapters that will eliminate the plug’s ground connection.

• Connect your Inverter/Charger only to a properly grounded AC power outlet or hardwired source. Do not plug the unit into itself; this

will damage the device and void your warranty.

• You may experience uneven performance results if you connect a surge suppressor, line conditioner or UPS system to the output of

the Inverter/Charger.

Operation Warnings

• Your Inverter/Charger 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/Charger as long as the battery supply and/or AC input are connected. During any

service work, the battery supply and AC input connection (if any) should therefore be disconnected.

• Do not connect or disconnect batteries while the Inverter/Charger is operating from the battery supply. Dangerous arcing may result.
