Circuit Breaker Protection
The Freedom Inverter/Charger is
supplemental breaker protected.
The INVERT/CHARGE breaker on the front
of the unit protects against sustained inverter/
charger over current conditions.
These breakers are reset by pushing the
button back in.
The output circuit breakers protect the output
AC circuits. Models are available with one or
two outputs.

Units with only supplemental circuit breakers
between the unit and the load. Appropriate
wire gauges must be used throughtout the in-
stallation. Refer to NEC specifications.

Inverter Idle Circuit
This automatic energy saving feature
reduces battery power consumption when no
AC load is present. Response from idle is
instantaneous. In most cases, the operation of
the idle circuit is not noticeable. Use of the
Remote Control Panel or Link Instrumentation
allows the idle threshold to be adjusted. The
unit does not put out 120 volts when in idle. To
bring the unit out of the idle condition, apply a
load.
Low and High Battery ShutdownLow and High Battery Shutdown
Low and High Battery ShutdownLow and High Battery Shutdown
Low and High Battery Shutdown
When in inverter mode, if the battery
voltage drops to 10.0 volts, the inverter will
automatically shut off. Charge the batteries to
13.5 volts to automatically resume operation.
V oltage shut down also occurs for a high
battery condition at 15.5 volts. Operation will
resume automatically when the battery voltage
drops below 15.5 volts. Check all DC sources
on the system for the reason for the excessive
voltage.
Power SharingPower Sharing
Power SharingPower Sharing
Power Sharing
When connected to an external AC
source the battery charger and transfer
functions are engaged. A unique Power
Sharing feature automatically reduces the AC
power consumption of the battery charger
allowing necessary AC power to go to the load.
This prevents the source AC INPUT circuit
breaker from tripping within the specified rating
of the AC circuit breaker.
The Power Sharing set point of each unit
has a factory default setting of 30 Amps. This
can be changed using the Remote Control
Panel or Link Instrumentation.

*Circuit breaker configurations include 15/15,
15/20, and 20/20
*Note: Supplemental circuit breakers are
reset by pushing the button back in. The
fault must be removed before resetting
the circuit breaker. Integral branch circuit
rated breakers are reset by setting the
appropriate breaker switch to the “on” po-
sition. The fault must be removed before
resetting the circuit breaker
If a 30-Ampere service supplies the in-
put to the unit, a model with integral
branch circuit rated breakers allows di-
rect wiring from the unit to the load.
