User manual DOMETIC PP2002

[. . . ] Installing the device may only be performed by qualified personnel who are familiar with the guidelines and safety precautions to be applied. If electrical devices are incorrectly installed on boats, corrosion damage might occur. Caution Note the following basic safety information when using electrical devices to protect against: ­ Electric shock ­ Fire hazards ­ Injury Operate the device only if you are certain that the housing and the cables are undamaged. Target group for this manual The chapter "Connecting the inverter" on page 33 is solely intended for qualified professionals who are familiar with the relevant VDE (German Engineering Society) regulations! [. . . ] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Description Grid: This LED lights up if the inverter is supplied with external 230 V mains power; the priority circuit is active. Connection for the external 230 V power supply Circuit breaker: Fuse 230 V AC output POWER: This LED lights up when the inverter is switched on. OLP: This LED lights up when the consumers connected draw too much electricity. Note the following safety instructions during installation: Set up the device securely and fasten it in such a way that ­ it cannot tip over or fall down ­ it cannot move while the vehicle is in motion Take precautions necessary to ensure that it is out of reach of children. Dangerous situations may occur which cannot be recognised by children! When selecting the installation location, observe the following instructions: Do not operate the device ­ in wet or damp environments ­ in dusty environments ­ in the vicinity of flammable materials ­ in spaces where there is a danger of explosion Do not expose the device to a heat source (such as direct sunlight or heating). Make sure the cables are the correct length and choose the installation location near the battery supply. A ventilation system must be present for installations in small, enclosed spaces. Make sure that the air intake on the front of the inverter remains clear. Caution Before drilling any holes, make sure that no electrical cables or other parts of the vehicle can be damaged by drilling, sawing and filing. The following information is intended for specialists who are familiar with the guidelines and safety precautions to be applied. Observe the following safety instructions for the electrical connections: Caution ­ Risk of short circuit!When working on the vehicle, always disconnect the earth connection to the supply battery. If you have to feed cables through metal walls or other walls with sharp edges, use ducts or tubes to prevent damage. Do not lay cables which are loose or bent next to electrically conductive material (metal). If you wish to connect more than one consumer to the inverter and install a socket distributor loop, you must arrange a circuit breaker (residual current circuit breaker) and set a grounding bridge in the inverter, see chapter "Connecting multiple consumers" on page 35. Note Please be aware that all volatile memories of the connected electric consumers will lose their stored data if the battery is disconnected. If the positive and negative connections are reversed, this may damage the device. Note Sparks may be produced when the connections are made due to the internal capacitors being charged. Connecting the inverter to the 230 V mains supply Plug the 230 V connection cable into the connector for the 230 V power supply to the inverter (fig. 2 3, page 3): ­ external switch, voltage supply from the inverter ­ external switch with its own voltage supply, e. If you wish to connect more than one consumer to the inverter and install a socket distribution circuit, you must arrange a circuit breaker (residual current circuit breaker) and set a grounding bridge in the inverter. [. . . ] Caution Do not use sharp or hard objects or cleaning agents for cleaning as these may damage the device. Input voltage too high Check the input voltage on the inverter and compare with the technical data for the inverter. Defective fuse (in the inverter or the vehicle) Defective device The device switches on and off repeatedly The inverter switches off when the consumers are switched on Excessive constant load Starting current too high The output voltage is too low Battery voltage is lower than shutdown value (see "Low voltage shutdown" in chapter "Technical data" on page 41) Note The output voltage can only be measured correctly with a TrueRMS measuring device. If the product is defective, please contact the manufacturer's branch in your country (see the back of the instruction manual for the addresses) or your retailer. [. . . ]
