Q. Can I run fluorescent lighting from my inverter?

A. ne on an inverter even though they may

be slow to start.

UÊ Fluorescent lights are an inductive & capacitive load and often draw at least twice as much

power from the inverter than their normal rating to start.

UÊ uorescent lights should be avoided, because they contain power factor

correction capacitors. Power factor correction is used in normal buildings to help smooth out

uorescent light ballasts. If used with portable power inverters the power

ed waveform, this causes a

uorescent lights must

capacitor. The light should then be marked “For Inverter Use only”.

Q. Why does it damage the inverter if the battery leads are connected back to front?

A. Your inverter uses sophisticated electronics to convert DC battery power to AC mains power. If

you accidentally connect the inverter to the batteries incorrectly (reverse polarity) a large

current will be drawn by the inverter which will blow the protection fuses, as this occurs some of

the high current could damaged sensitive electronic components. Because of this risk it is

important to always double-check the batteries polarity before making any connections.

Q. How do I check or change the fuses?

electrical appliance repairer.

THE DC SUPPLY MUST BE DISCONNECTED BEFORE ANY REPAIR, THEN TURN THE ON/OFF

SWITCH OF THE INVERTER “ON” TO DISCHARGE THE CAPACITORS.

Q. Why do lights operating from the inverter start dim and then get brighter.

A. Projecta inverters feature “Peak Power Technology”. This feature allows the inverter to ramp up

its voltage output. This gradual increase in power allows appliances to operate with a “Soft-

Start” ensuring superior operation and helps the inverter to power inductive loads.

Q. Why does the fan only operate sometimes?

A. These inverters feature a temperature controlled automatic cooling fan, that only operates when

needed. This allows the inverter to run very quite for most of the time.
