Renewable
Energy Input
It can also use renewable energy, such as 12 V solar panels and small
12 V wind turbines, to recharge the batteries. Using renewable energy
sources require a permanent “hardwired” installation and will require
additional equipment and structural enhancement to be code-compliant.
Inverter
Features
The inverter consists of the following user features:
• Inverter Control Panel
• Four 120 Vac outlets on the front panel.
• One supplementary protector to protect the 120 Vac outlets from
overload.
• Two Battery Box Connection Ports (one on each side)
Input/Output
Terminals
The inverter has the following input/output terminals:
• Two DC Anderson ports for 12 V battery connections from the
Battery Box; one on each side.
• Two pairs of DC input terminals for renewable energy connections:
one 32 A input terminal and one 80 A input terminal. External inputs
to these terminals must be externally regulated. Solar panels must
use charge controllers and wind turbines must be self-regulated.
• The 32 A terminals can be used for 12 Vdc input up to
400 W maximum.
• The 80 A terminals can be used for 12 Vdc input up to
1000 W maximum.
• AC input terminal (for grid or generator input)
• AC output terminal (for AC output in hardwired installations)
