System Description: System: Fail-Safe
When a malfunction listed below occurs, the inverter unit turns OFF the AC 120 V outlet main switch indicator and stops the output by operating the fail - safe.
| Malfunction item | Fail-safe condition | Fail-safe cancellation condition |
|---|---|---|
| Inverter unit is overheated | When the inverter unit is overheated, the output stops to protect the inverter unit. | After the inverter unit temperature is lowered, the AC 120 V outlet main switch ON → OFF → ON operation allows normal return. |
| Inverter unit power supply voltage is 11.5 V or less | When inverter unit input voltage is lowered, the output stops to protect the battery from running out. | Automatic normal return when inverter unit power supply voltage reaches 11.5 V - 16 V. |
| Inverter unit power supply voltage is 16 V - 18 V | When inverter unit input voltage reaches 16 V - 18 V, the output stops to protect the inverter unit. | Automatic normal return when inverter unit power supply voltage reaches 11.5 V - 16 V. |
| Inverter unit power supply voltage is 18 V or more | When inverter unit input voltage reaches 18 V or more, the output stops to protect the inverter unit. | After the inverter unit power supply voltage reaches 11.5 V - 16 V, the AC 120 V outlet main switch ON → OFF → ON operation allows normal return. |
| Inverter unit output current is 2.8 A or more | When inverter unit output current reaches 2.8 A or more, the output stops to prevent over current. (e.g. connecting an electric appliance exceeding rated output) | Automatic normal return when inverter output current reaches 2.8 A. |
| Inverter unit output signal (AC 120 V output signal) is shorted | When inverter unit output signal is shorted, the output stops. | After recovering from inverter unit output signal short, the AC 120 V outlet main switch ON → OFF → ON operation allows normal return. |
