Technical description
Inverters PP1000 and PP2000 consist of two function units:
Inverter switch: generates 230 V AC power from a battery voltage of
– 12 V: PP1002 and PP2002
– 24 V: PP1004 and PP2004
Mains priority circuit: switches automatically between 230 V of external
mains voltage (e.g. on a camping site) and a battery generated 230 V
power supply
The external supply has priority. If no more external voltage is available,
the output socket is disconnected from the external power supply and
connected to the inverter voltage. This ensures that the output socket
always has a power supply of 230 V.
From inverter operation to mains power supply:
There is a delay when switching from inverter operation (whereby the
230 V AC power is produced from the battery voltage) to the mains
power supply.
When the plug is inserted in the outside socket (camping site, harbour)
the inverter is switched off after a delay of approx. 4 s. After a further 2 s,
the mains power supply is switched through. This gives the devices
connected enough time to switch off properly.
From mains power to inverter operation:
A delay also occurs when switching from mains power to inverter
operation.
If the mains supply fails, the inverter switches on after 2 seconds.
Caution
e
When switching over, any devices connected should be switched
off. Because they do not receive voltage for 2 s, they may have to
be switched back on.
