3. Persediaan dan Pemasangan
Pemasangan yang betul adalah penting untuk prestasi dan keselamatan inverter. Ikuti garis panduan ini dengan teliti.
3.1 Penempatan
Install the inverter in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and flammable materials. Ensure there is adequate space around the unit for airflow, especially around the cooling fan vents.
3.2 DC Input Connection (12VDC)
Connect the inverter to a 12VDC battery bank using appropriate gauge cables. Ensure correct polarity: connect the positive (+) terminal of the inverter to the positive (+) terminal of the battery, and the negative (-) terminal of the inverter to the negative (-) terminal of the battery. Use fuses or circuit breakers on the DC input line as recommended by local electrical codes and the inverter's specifications.

3.3 AC Output Connection (230VAC)
Connect your AC appliances to the inverter's 230VAC output socket. Ensure the total power consumption of all connected devices does not exceed the inverter's rated output power (1500W continuous). Avoid connecting high-surge devices that exceed the inverter's surge capacity.

3.4 Sambungan Alat Kawalan Jauh
The inverter supports a remote control function via the Green Terminal. Refer to the remote control unit's manual for specific wiring and operation instructions. This allows for convenient power ON/OFF control from a distance.
3.5 Pembumian
Proper grounding is essential for safety. Connect the chassis ground terminal of the inverter to a reliable earth ground or the vehicle chassis (for mobile applications) using a suitable ground wire.
4. Arahan Operasi
Once properly installed, operating the inverter is straightforward.
4.1 Menghidupkan/Mematikan
- Untuk Menghidupkan: Ensure all DC and AC connections are secure. Flip the main power switch on the inverter to the 'ON' position. The indicator lights will illuminate, signifying the inverter is operational.
- Untuk Mematikan: Disconnect all AC loads from the inverter. Flip the main power switch to the 'OFF' position.
4.2 Pengurusan Beban
Always ensure that the total wattage of all appliances connected to the inverter does not exceed its continuous power rating. Overloading the inverter can cause it to shut down or sustain damage. For inductive loads (e.g., motors, refrigerators), consider their surge power requirements, which can be several times their continuous rating.
4.3 Penunjuk LED
The inverter features LED indicators to display its operational status and any fault conditions. Consult the detailed specifications or the manufacturer's full manual for a complete explanation of each indicator's meaning (e.g., power, fault, overload, low battery).
5. Penyelenggaraan
Penyelenggaraan berkala membantu memastikan jangka hayat dan prestasi optimum inverter anda.
- Pembersihan: Bersihkan bahagian luar inverter secara berkala dengan kain kering dan lembut. Jangan gunakan pembersih cecair atau pelarut. Pastikan bukaan pengudaraan bebas daripada habuk dan serpihan.
- Sambungan: Periodically check all DC and AC connections to ensure they remain tight and free from corrosion. Loose connections can lead to overheating and power loss.
- Pengudaraan: Ensure the area around the inverter remains clear to allow for proper airflow and cooling.
6. Penyelesaian masalah
Bahagian ini membincangkan isu-isu biasa yang mungkin anda hadapi dengan inverter anda.
| Masalah | Kemungkinan Punca | Penyelesaian |
|---|---|---|
| Inverter tidak menyala | No DC input power; Loose battery connections; Blown fuse/breaker; Low battery voltage | Periksa sambungan bateri; Sahkan volum bateritage; Check DC fuses/breakers; Recharge or replace battery. |
| Tiada output AC | Overload; Over-temperature; Low/High input voltage; Fault condition | Reduce AC load; Allow inverter to cool; Check battery voltage; Cycle power to reset. |
| Inverter kerap dimatikan | Overload; Poor ventilation; Low battery voltage; High ambient temperature | Reduce load; Improve ventilation; Recharge battery; Move inverter to cooler location. |
| Fan runs constantly or loudly | Suhu dalaman yang tinggi; Beban berat | Ensure adequate ventilation; Reduce load if possible. This is normal operation under certain conditions. |
