MOUNTING
Mount the unit in a WELL VENTILATED area.
Allow at least one inch (2.54 cm) of clearance
all around the unit for adequate cooling.
The IPSi305W is built to meet the IP66 rating,
for protection again high-pressure water
spray. Each IPSi305Y is tested and certied
to meet the IP67 rating for protection against
submersion. Please take this into consideration
when choosing a mounting location.
CAUTION: DO NOT MOUNT THE UNIT
ANYWHERE EXPLOSIVE GASES CAN
ACCUMULATE.
A slight arc may occur when the power leads
are connected, and in the unlikely event of a
failure, sparks may be generated inside the unit.
Installation
IMPORTANT: BEFORE CONNECTING OR DISCONNECTING ANYTHING TO THE
INVERTER, MAKE THE UNIT IS OFF.
GROUNDING
The unit case is connected to AC Ground and AC Neutral in order to meet regulatory
requirements and reduce the possibility of it generating any radio frequency interference.
The unit case must be bonded appropriately to the grounding system of the vehicle or marine
vessel. On a vehicle, bond the case to the vehicle’s frame. On a marine vessel, bond the case
to the vessel’s hull. A grounding stud is provided on the front panel for this purpose.
To ensure proper grounding, check the connection with an ohmmeter. The case is isolated from
the DC input, so the DC power can be connected to a different ground from the AC output.
DISCONNECTING
If you need to disconnect the Inverter for service or storage:
1. Move the power switch to OFF and disconnect the DC power source.
2. With power disconnected, move the power switch to ON.
3. Leave the switch in this position for one minute to discharge the storage capacitors.
4. Return the power switch to the OFF position. Disconnect the load(s).
5. The inverter is ready for service or storage.
