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 Inverters.
Location Warnings
Install your Inverter (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 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 inches (5 cm) clearance at front and back of
the Inverter for proper ventilation. The heavier the load of connected
equipment, the more heat will be generated by the unit. Any
compartment that contains the Inverter must be properly ventilated
with adequate outside airflow to avoid overheating the Inverter.
Do not install the Inverter directly near magnetic storage media, as
this may result in data corruption.
Do not install near flammable materials, fuel or chemicals.
Do not mount unit with its front or rear panel facing down (at any
angle). Mounting in this manner will seriously inhibit the unit’s
internal cooling, eventually causing product damage not covered
under warranty.

Important Safety Instructions
Battery Connection Warnings
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.
Connect the Inverter to the battery with recommended DC fusing
(see Battery Connection) along with properly sized battery cabling
Ground Connection Warnings
Safe operation requires connecting the Inverter’s main grounding
screw directly to the frame of the vehicle or earth ground.
Equipment Connection Warnings
Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this
equipment can reasonably be expected to cause the failure of the life
support equipment or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is
not recommended.
You may experience uneven performance results if you connect a
surge protector, line conditioner or UPS system to the modified sine
wave output of the inverter.

Important Safety Instructions
Operation Warnings
Your inverter produces a modified sine wave, not a pure sine
wave. Inductive loads like a refrigerator or drill are not suitable for
long-term use with a modified sine wave inverter. Otherwise, it may
damage or shorten the working life of the inverter or associated
devices.
Your inverter 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 as long as the
battery is connected. During any service work, the battery should
therefore be disconnected.
Do not connect or disconnect batteries while the inverter is
operating. Dangerous arcing may result.

Battery Selection
Match Battery Amp-Hour Capacity to Your
Application
Select a battery or system of batteries that will provide your Inverter
with proper DC voltage and an adequate amp-hour capacity to power
your application. Even though Tripp Lite Inverters are highly efficient
at DC-to-AC inversion, their rated output capacities are limited by the
total amp-hour capacity of connected batteries, plus the output of an
alternator (when one is used).
STEP 1) Determine Total Wattage Required
Add the wattage ratings of all equipment you will connect to your
Inverter. Wattage ratings are typically listed in equipment manuals
or on nameplates. If your equipment is rated in amps, multiply that
number times AC utility voltage to estimate watts. (Example: a drill
requires 2.5 amps. 2.5 amps × 120 volts = 300 watts.)
Note: Your Inverter will operate at higher efficiencies around 75% - 80% of
nameplate rating.
Step 2) Determine DC Battery Amps Required
Divide the total wattage required (from Step 1, above) by the battery
voltage to determine the DC amps required, then multiply by 1.2 to
account for conversion losses.
Step 3) Estimate Battery Amp-Hours Required
Multiply the DC amps required (from Step 2, above) by the number of
hours you estimate the equipment will operate exclusively from battery
power before recharging the batteries. This will provide an estimate of
how many battery power amp-hours (from one or several batteries) you
should connect to your Inverter.
Note: Battery amp-hour ratings are usually given for a 20-hour discharge rate.
Actual amp-hour capacities are less when batteries are discharged at faster
rates. For example, batteries discharged in 55 minutes provide only 50% of their
listed amp-hour ratings, while batteries discharged in 9 minutes provide as little
as 30% of their amp-hour ratings.

Mounting
WARNING!
Mount your Inverter BEFORE DC battery connection. Failure
to follow these instructions may lead to personal injury and/
or damage to the Inverter and connected systems. Ensure the
inverter never is mounted in a vertical position (fan or outlet side
facing up or down). Mounting an inverter in a vertical position
allows debris to enter the unit and inhibit proper operation of its
cooling system, which can void the inverter’s warranty.
Tripp Lite recommends permanently mounting the Inverter in the
configurations illustrated below. The Inverter features integral mounting
brackets on the left and right sides of the unit. The user must supply
mounting hardware and is responsible for determining whether
hardware and mounting surfaces adequately support the weight of the
unit.
Use the measurements as shown in the following diagram to install two
user-supplied fasteners to the right or bottom (wall-mount) mounting
slots of the unit, leaving the heads slightly raised. Slide the unit over
the fasteners to engage the mounting slots. Tighten fasteners. Install
and tighten two additional fasteners to the remaining mounting slots
for proper securement.

Battery Connection
WARNING!
Make sure the inverter power switch is in the OFF position,
connect with included DC Wiring to the positive and negative
terminals. Though your Inverter is a high-efficiency converter
of electricity, its rated output capacity is limited by the length
and gauge of the cabling running from the battery to the unit.
Use the included cabling or the shortest length and largest
diameter cabling (see the Recommended Cabling and Fusing
Chart below) with ring terminals to fit your Inverter’s DC Input
terminals. Shorter and heavier gauge cabling reduces DC voltage
drop and allows for maximum transfer of current. Your Inverter
is capable of delivering peak wattage at up to 200% of its rated
continuous wattage output for brief periods of time. Heavier
gauge cabling should be used when continuously operating heavy
draw equipment under these conditions. To protect the battery
system, it is also recommended to install a user-supplied UL-
rated ANL fuse and fuse block 7 inches from the battery bank’s
positive terminal connection. The inverter has its own internal DC
fusing to protect against short circuits at the inverter’s output.

Battery Connection
To Connect the Inverter to Batteries:
1. Locate the positive (+) red and negative (-) black terminals on the
left side of the inverter.
2. From the positive and the negative terminals, remove the hex nut,
split lock, and flat washer.
3. Place the positive ring connector onto the positive inverter
terminal. Place the negative ring connector onto the negative DC
input terminal.
4. Place a flat washer and split lock on top of each ring connector.
Put the positive and negative hex nuts over these and tighten to
create a secure connection and prevent excessive heating at this
connection. Insufficient tightening of the terminals could void your
warranty. See Specifications for recommended cable sizing.
5. Connect the red positive (+) wire to the positive (+) connector on
your battery system and connect the black negative (-) wire to the
negative (-) connector on your battery system. It is recommended
that the positive connection should have a UL-rated ANL fuse and
fuse block (see Recommend Cabling and Fusing table) installed
a minimum of 7 inches or maximum of 18 inches from the battery
system’s positive connector for battery system protection.
6. Connect Ground: Using the ground wire, directly connect the
Main Ground Screw to the vehicle’s chassis or earth ground.
See Feature Identification to locate the Main Ground Screw.
All installations must comply with national and local codes and
ordinances.

Battery Connection
WARNING!
Failure to properly ground your Inverter to a vehicle’s chassis
or earth ground may result in a lethal electrical shock hazard.
Never attempt to operate your Inverter by connecting it
directly to output from an alternator rather than a battery or
battery bank.
Observe proper polarity with all DC connections.
Vehicular Applications
Your Inverter’s nominal DC input voltage must match the voltage
of your battery or batteries. 12V DC is used in most vehicular
applications. It is possible to connect your Inverter to the main battery
within your vehicle’s electrical system. In many vehicular contexts, the
Inverter will be connected to one or more dedicated auxiliary (house)
batteries, which are isolated from the drive system to prevent possible
draining of the main battery.
