4. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps for proper setup:

1. Placement: Choose a dry, well-ventilated location for the inverter, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and moisture. Ensure sufficient space around the unit for airflow.
2. Power Source: Connect the inverter to a 24V DC battery system. The inverter is compatible with various 24V battery types including LI (Lithium), FLD (Flooded), GEL, SLD (Sealed Lead Acid), and AGM batteries.
3. DC Connection:
   • Ensure the inverter's power switch is in the "OFF" position.
   • Connect the positive (+) cable (red) from the 24V battery to the positive (+) input terminal on the inverter.
   • Connect the negative (-) cable (black) from the 24V battery to the negative (-) input terminal on the inverter.
   • Ensure all connections are tight and secure to prevent sparks and ensure efficient power transfer.
4. Grounding: For safety, ensure the inverter is properly grounded. Consult a qualified electrician if unsure.
