4 Intended use

WARNING!

Never use the inverter on vehicles where the positive terminal of the battery is connected to the chassis.

The wave inverter converts direct current into a 230 V AC supply of 50 Hz:

Rechargeable devices with USB interface can be charged via the USB port (5 V, 2000 mA).

This device is exclusively intended for vehicle use.

5 Technical description

The inverters can be operated wherever a DC connection is available:

The output voltage corresponds to the household voltage from the socket (pure sine wave, THD < 5%).

Please observe the values for constant output power and peak output power as indicated in chapter "Recycling packaging material" on page 19. Never connect devices that have a higher power requirement.

NOTE

Note when connecting devices with an electrical drive (such as power drills and refrigerators), that they often require more power than is indicated on the type plate.

The inverter has various protective mechanisms.

• Overvoltage shutdown: The inverter shuts itself off when the voltage exceeds the cut-off value. It restarts when the voltage returns to the restart value.
- Undervoltage shutdown: The inverter shuts itself off when the voltage sinks below the cut-off value. It restarts when the voltage rises to the restart value.
- Excess temperature shutdown: The inverter switches off when the temperature inside the device or the temperature on the cooling element exceeds a cut-off value. It restarts when the voltage rises to the restart value.
• Overloading and short circuit shutdown: The LED on the inverter indicates an operating fault when an excess load is connected or a short circuit has occurred.

NOTE

The individual values are found in the chapter "Recycling packaging material" on page 19.

6 Fitting the inverter

6.1 Mounting instructions

When selecting the installation location, observe the following instructions:

• The inverter can be mounted horizontally or vertically.
• The inverter must be installed in a place that is protected from moisture.
• The inverter may not be installed in the presence of flammable materials.
• The inverter may not be installed in a dusty environment.
• The place of installation must be well ventilated. A ventilation system must be available for installations in small, enclosed spaces. The minimum clearance around the inverter must be at least 5 cm (fig. 3, page 4).
• The air intake on the underside or the air outlet on the back of the inverter must remain clear.
• For ambient temperatures higher than 40 °C (such as in engine or heating compartments, or direct sunlight), the inverter's maximal output load is reduced. Thereby the inverter may shut down due to overload.
• The device must be installed on a level and sufficiently sturdy surface.

NOTICE!

Before drilling any holes, make sure that no electrical cables or other parts of the vehicle can be damaged by drilling, sawing and filing.

6.2 Mounting the inverter

▶ Mount the inverter as shown (fig. 4, page 4).

7 Connecting the inverter

WARNING!

Never connect more than one consumer device to the inverter. The connection of more than one device must be executed by an electrically qualified person complying with the local requirements for protection against electric shock.

NOTICE!

• Incorrect polarity will blow an internal fuse which has to be replaced by the Dometic service. Additionally the electronics may be damaged.
• Make sure that the inverter is operated with the following voltage only:
  -DSP212, DSP412: 12 V=
• DSP224, DSP424: 24 V=

▶ Connect the inverter as shown:

- Connecting the battery:

DSP212, DSP224: fig. 5, page 5

DSP412, DSP424: fig. 6, page 5

- Connecting load: fig. 7, page 6

Connect external switch to turn device on and off (DSP412, DSP424 only)

NOTE

The inverter is switched on when the external or the main switch (fig. 2 1, page 3) is switch on. If the inverter shall be controlled via external switch only, the main switch has to be switch to position "0".

▶ Connect the external switch as shown (fig. 8, page 6).

8 Using the inverter

CAUTION!

When connecting the load observe the applicable regulations.

8.1 Switching on the inverter

▶ Switch the inverter on by pressing the switch (fig. 2 1, page 3) on the device (position "I") ...
▶ ... or (DSP412, DSP424 only) switch on the inverter using the external switch (optional).
√ The blue Status LED lights up (fig. 2 2, page 3).
√ The power consuming device is supplied with voltage.

Charging the device via the USB port

NOTE

Also observe the operating manual of the device you want to charge via the USB port.

▶ Connect the device to the USB port as shown (fig. 9, page 7).

8.2 Status indications

9 Cleaning and caring for the inverter

NOTICE! Damage hazard

• Never clean the cooling device under running water or in dish water.
• Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or hard objects during cleaning as these can damage the cooling device.

▶ Occasionally clean the cooling device interior and exterior with a damp cloth.
▶ Make sure that the air inlet and outlet vents on the device are free of any dust and dirt, so that heat can be released and the device is not damaged.

10 Troubleshooting

WARNING!

Do not open the device. You risk sustaining an electric shock by doing this.

NOTE

If you have detailed questions on the specifications of the inverter please contact the manufacturer (addresses on the back of the instruction manual).

The LED (fig. 2 2, page 3) indicates the fault:

LED display Cause Remedy

Quick flash Input voltage is too high Check the input voltage and reduce it.
	Input voltage too low The battery needs recharging.Check the cables and connections.
Long flash, short interruption	Overheating Switch off the inverter and the consumer.Wait 5 to 10 minutes and switch the inverter on again without any electric consumers.Reduce the load and make sure the inverter has better ventilation. Then switch the con-sumer back on.
	Excessive load Switch off the inverter and remove the consumer.Then switch the inverter back on without the consumer. If no excessive load is now shown, then there is a short circuit in the consumer or the total load was higher than the power specified on the data sheet.Check the cables and connections.
Off Other fault	Contact the service.
