INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
NOTES:
• Horizontal mounting of the power converter, is
recommended although it can be mounted in any
position that provides unobstructed ventilation to
the fan and vent holes.
• The OEM should test the power converter under
full load conditions in its intended mounting
location. This will insure that there is sufficient
unobstructed ventilation to the converter
allowing it to operate at its maximum rated load.
Failure to provide adequate ventilation to the
converter will cause the converter output to be
reduced as it responds to ambient conditions.

• The INTELI-POWER converters are not
designed for zero clearance compartments.
• Use a 5/32” hex driver to tighten the output
screws. Do not exceed 50 in-lbs. torque on the
output terminals.
• The INTELI-POWER converters are not weather
tight or designed for wet mounting locations.
They must be protected from direct contact with
water.
• Avoid the introduction of foreign materials into
the case as this could damage or cause a
malfunction of the converter.
Installation Steps:
1. Secure converter firmly to mounting surface.
2. Connect ground lug (found on unit base) to
chassis.
• Ground wire to be between 6 and 12AWG
wire.
• Tighten lug to 25 – 35 in-lbs.
3. Disconnect battery from both positive (+) and
ground (-) cables.
4. Connect battery ground (-) to converter NEG (-)
lug.
• Conductor to be between 2 and 14AWG
(follow all applicable codes when sizing
conductor)
• Tighten lug to 30 – 50 in-lbs.
5. Disconnect any optional pendants or modules.
6. Plug converter into appropriate outlet.
7. Using a DC voltmeter, verify converter output.
The power converter is working properly if the
voltage is above 13VDC (12V models), 26VDC
(24V models, 14.3VDC (12V 9100L models),
and 28.4VDC (24V 9100-24L models). If no
output is present, refer to the trouble shooting
guide in this manual.
8. Disconnect power to converter
9. Connect battery positive (+) to converter POS (+)
lug.
• Conductor to be between 2 and 14AWG
(follow all applicable codes when sizing
conductor)
• Tighten lug to 30 – 50 in-lbs.
Note: When connecting battery to converter
POS (+), a spark may occur. This is normal.
10. Reconnect battery to both positive (+) and ground
(-) cables.
11. Reconnect any optional pendants or modules.
12. Reconnect power to converter.
