It is ideal for powering a wide range of appliances that require a high-quality power supply, including sensitive electronics, medical equipment, and appliances with electric motors (e.g., refrigerators, power tools, pumps). The inverter features a powerful 2.1A USB port for charging mobile phones, tablets, and other USB-compatible devices. For added convenience, a remote on/off switch with a 5-metre cable is included, allowing you to control the inverter from a distance without needing direct access to the unit. Ensure your 12V battery bank is adequately sized to support the inverter's power output and the duration of use. Proper ventilation is crucial for optimal performance and longevity of the inverter. Typical Applications Application Description Motorhomes & Caravans Powering domestic appliances, entertainment systems, and charging devices on the go. Boats & Marine Providing reliable AC power for onboard electronics, galley appliances, and navigation equipment. Off-Grid Systems Essential for remote cabins, sheds, workshops, and other locations without mains electricity. Backup Power Offers emergency AC power during accidental power cuts, keeping essential appliances running. Built-In Protection Functions This Photonic Universe inverter incorporates several automatic protection features to ensure safe and reliable operation. These include safeguards against over-discharge • overload • overheating • and short-circuit. These functions automatically shut down the inverter to prevent damage to the unit and connected appliances. Common Questions What can I power with this 3000W inverter? This 3000W inverter can power most standard domestic appliances, including TVs, fridges, microwaves, kettles (within its power limit), power tools, and charging laptops/mobile phones. Always check the power consumption of your appliances to ensure they do not exceed the inverter's continuous rating of 3000W. Why is a pure sine wave inverter important? Pure sine wave inverters produce an AC output that is almost identical to the electricity supplied by utility companies. This makes them suitable for all types of appliances, especially sensitive electronics, medical equipment, and appliances with electric motors, which can be damaged or run inefficiently by modified sine wave inverters. How do I connect this inverter to my battery? The inverter connects directly to a 12V battery or battery bank using appropriate heavy-gauge cables (not supplied). Ensure correct polarity (+ to + and - to -) and use a fuse or circuit breaker on the DC input side for safety. A user manual is supplied with the product to guide you through the wiring and operation. Can I use an adaptor for more sockets? Yes, an adaptor can be used to provide more sockets. However, it is crucial to ensure that the total combined power consumption of all appliances connected to the inverter, including those via the adaptor, does not exceed the inverter's continuous power rating of 3000W. Installation Notes Ensure the inverter is installed in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Use appropriately sized DC cables to connect the inverter to your 12V battery bank to minimise voltage drop and ensure efficient power transfer. Always connect the inverter to the battery before connecting any AC loads. For safety, it is recommended to install a suitable fuse or DC circuit breaker between the battery and the inverter. Refer to the supplied user manual for detailed wiring instructions and operational guidelines. Before You Buy Verify Power Requirements: Calculate the total continuous power (Watts) of all appliances you intend to run simultaneously. Check Battery Voltage: This inverter requires a 12V DC input. Ensure your battery bank matches this voltage. Battery Capacity: Ensure your battery bank has sufficient Amp-hour (Ah) capacity to support your desired run time. Cable Sizing: Proper cable sizing is critical for safety and performance. Consult an electrician if unsure. Installation Environment: Consider the physical space and ventilation required for the inverter. Please verify all specifications and compatibility requirements before purchase. This product comes with a 1-year warranty from the manufacturer.
