  • Protections: reverse input polarity (through fuse), reverse output polarity (through diode), overload, output short circuit, output overvoltage (through zener diode), overheating; battery protection against excessive discharge.
  • (1) Continuous operation. (2) Intermittent: 1 min on, 1 min off at 20 °C ambient.

Location & Sizing

  • Fixed indoor installation in a dry, ventilated place; horizontal or vertical with cables exiting downwards (vertical recommended for cooling).
  • At least 5 cm between the unit (except its base) and walls or objects; the base must withstand 80°C (at 40°C ambient). The case is the heat sink and can get very hot.
  • Battery 24 V, recommended capacity >120 Ah; minimum output cable 10 mm2 (size for the run length); insulated female Faston 6,3 x 0,8 terminals.
  • Output fuse: the English table gives 30 A FAST, the German table 6 A FAST (x3) (as printed); check your unit's label.

Wiring & Use

  • 24 V battery to IN, 12 V equipment to OUT through the fuse (Fig. 1); check input and output polarity, cables not live while connecting.
  • Undersized cables or poor joints can overheat dangerously. Wire to local electrical codes.
  • POWER switch turns the unit on and off. In a fault the output is cut and restored automatically once conditions are normal (no overload, temperature and battery voltage correct).
  • Maintenance: none; check cables and connections once a year. Opening by unauthorised personnel voids the warranty.
LED Colour Meaning
OUT Off No output voltage: unit off or in protection
OUT Green Power on
TEST Off Unit off
TEST Green No faults during operation
TEST Red Protection for over temperature or low input voltage: check output wiring and loads, installation and the input battery bank

TEST red with OUT green means a fault occurred and has cleared: switch the unit off and on again.
