INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Horizontal mounting of the INTELI-POW ER 9100, is
recommended although it can be mounted in any position
that provides unobstructed ventilation to the fan and vent
holes. Secure the converter firmly to the mounting
surface using standard fasteners.
The OEM should test the INTELI-POW ER 9100 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 to
cycle on and off as it responds to ambient conditions.
THE INTELI-POWER 9100 CONVERTERS ARE NOT
DESIGNED FOR ZERO CLEARANCE
COMPARTMENTS.
! ATTENTION !
USE A 5/32" HEX DRIVER TO TIGHTEN THE
OUTPUT SCREWS. DO NOT EXCEED 50 IN-LB
TORQUE. PD9160 AND PD9180 USE A SLOTTED
SCREWDRIVER TO TIGHTEN THE OUTPUT
SCREWS
THE OUTPUT TERMINALS ARE RATED FOR 2 TO
14 GA. COPPER OR ALUMINUM WIRE.
THE INTELI-POWER 9100 CONVERTERS ARE NOT
WEATHER TIGHT OR DESIGNED FOR WET
LOCATION MOUNTING. THEY MUST BE
PROTECTED FROM DIRECT CONTACT WITH
WATER.
DURING THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS
AVOID THE INTRODUCTION OF FOREIGN
MATERIALS INTO THE CASE AS THIS COULD
CAUSE A MALFUNCTION OF THE CONVERTER.
TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSES ACTION
1. No Output 120 VAC supply not connected Connect power supply
Check AC distribution panel for proper operation
External Fuses Blown Check for Reverse Polarity
Replace Fuses with same type and rating
Short Circuit Trace RV Circuits for possible fault
Unit has shutdown due to overheating Check air flow
Allow unit to cool
Unit has shutdown due to over voltage Check input voltage
(Also see Item 5 below) Converter will shut down if the input voltage exceeds 132
Volts
Correct Input Voltage
2. External Fuses
Blown
Reverse Battery Hook Up Correct Hook up and replace Fuses with same type and
rating
3. Converter cycles on
& off
Compartment gets too hot Check air flow to the converter
Improve Ventilation to the compartment
4. Low Output Excessive Load for Converter Reduce load requirements or Install Larger Converter
Input Voltage not between 105-130
VAC
Correct input supply voltage
Bad Battery Cell(s) Replace Battery
5. Intermittent or no
Output on Generator,
works on Shore
Power
Unit has shutdown due to over voltage. Add another load to the generator, this may reduce the
“spikes” to an acceptable level
Some generators exhibit excessive
voltage spikes on the AC power output,
this may cause the over voltage
protection to shut the unit down
Contact generator manufacturer for possible defect in the
generator
Do not replace the converter unless the following checks have been performed:
1. Loosen the screw on the positive terminal and disconnect the positive wire. Read the converter output voltage using a
DC voltmeter. If the voltage is above 13 volts, the converter is working properly.
2. If the converter output is zero volts, use an AC voltmeter to check for proper voltage at the 120 VAC outlet that the
converter is plugged into. This voltage should be between 105 and 130 volts.
3. Check the fuses located at the front of the converter. These fuses will only blow if the battery or DC output leads
were connected in reverse, even for a moment. Replace the fuses and repeat step 1.
NOTE: When replacing fuse(s) the TCMS plug must be removed to provide clearance for fuse replacement.
