The inverter•charger should be able to operate all AC loads rated at or below
its power rating. Some high horsepower induction motors used in pumps and
other motor-operated equipment require very high surge currents to start, and
the inverter•charger may have difficulty starting these loads. (See page 81 for
more information.) If you have problems starting certain loads, ensure that the
battery connections are solid, the DC cabling is short and of sufficient size, the
AC wiring is of sufficient size, and the battery is of sufficient capacity and is
fully charged.
As with all inverters, the amount of continuous power that the PROsine 2.0
can deliver without overheating is limited by the ambient air temperature. It
will operate and deliver its continuous power rating at higher temperatures,
but the ambient temperature as well as the input voltage from the battery limits
the extent to which it can do this. Operating the inverter•charger in conditions
outside the power and temperature limits will result in thermal shutdown and/
or significantly decreased performance. In addition, operation in this range is
outside the ratings covered by the regulatory approvals of the product. (See
page 99.)
Input Voltage
The input voltage limits are shown in Table 6.

V The inverter•charger will not restart
unless input voltage exceeds 12.5V or the
inverter is turned ON manually with the
DISABLE/ENABLE switch. If the
inverter is already enabled (STANDBY
LED is on), move the switch to DISABLE
to turn the inverter OFF, and then move it
to ENABLE again to restart the inverter
(as long as the battery voltage is between
10–16 volts).
