This manual contains important instructions for APS1000-12 & APS2000-24 models that
shall be followed during installation and maintenance of the inverters.
General Safety Precautions
1. Before installing and using the inverter/charger, read all instructions and
cautionary markings on the inverter/charger and all appropriate sections of this
guide. Be sure to read all instructions and cautionary markings for any equipment
attached to this unit.
2. Install this unit away from direct sun light and where is not exposed to water
sprinklers.
3. To reduce risk of fire hazard, do not cover or obstruct the ventilation openings.
Do not install the inverter/charger in a zero-clearance compartment. Otherwise
overheating may occur.\
4. Use only attachments recommended or sold by the manufacturer. Doing
otherwise may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
5. To avoid a risk of fire and electric shock, make sure that existing wiring is in good
condition and that wire is not undersized. Do not connect the inverter/charger
with damaged or substandard wiring.
6. Do not operate the inverter/charger if it has received a sharp blow, been
dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way. If the inverter/charger is damaged,
read the warranty section.
7. Do not disassemble the inverter/charger. It contains no user-serviceable parts.
See warranty for instructions on obtaining service. Attempting to service the
inverter/charger yourself may result in a risk of electrical shock or fire. Internal
capacitors remain charged after all power is disconnected.
8. The inverter contains more than one live circuit (batteries and AC line). Power
may be present at more than one source. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
disconnect both AC and DC power from inverter/charger before attempting any
maintenance or cleaning or working on any circuits connected to the
inverter/charger. Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.
9. Use insulated tools to reduce the chance of short-circuits when installing or
working with the inverter or the batteries.
Precautions When Working with Batteries
1. Make sure the batteries are well ventilated. Avoid blocking enclosure vents.
2. Never smoke or allow a spark or flame near the inverter or batteries.
3. Use caution to reduce the risk of dropping a metal tool on the batteries. It could
spark or short circuit the battery or other electrical parts and could cause an
explosion.
4. Remove all metal items, like rings, bracelets, and watches when working with
lead-acid batteries. Lead-acid batteries produce a short circuit current high
enough to weld metal to skin.
5. Make sure someone is close enough to aid should anything dangerous occur
when you’re working near a lead-acid battery.
6. Prepare enough fresh water and soap in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing or
eyes.
7. Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid touching your eyes
while working near batteries.
8. If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If
acid enters your eyes, immediately flood in cold water and get medical attention
immediately.
9. If you need to remove a battery, always remove the ground terminal from the
battery first. Make sure all accessories are off so you don’t cause a spark.
10. Always use identical types of batteries.
11. Never install old or untested batteries. Check each battery’s date code label to
ensure age and type.
12. Batteries are temperature sensitive. For optimal performance, they should be
installed in a stable temperature environment.
13. Always recycle old batteries. Contact your local recycling center for proper
disposal information.
General Information
Thank you for purchasing the APS inverter series.
The inverter is a combination of an inverter, charger.
It is packed with unique features and it is one of the most advanced inverter/charger
in the market today.
The inverter features an AC bypass circuit, powering your gate operators and access
controls or any appliance from the utility power or generator power while charging the
battery. When utility power fails, the battery backup system keeps your equipment
powered until utility power is restored. Internal protection circuits prevent over-
discharging the batteries by shutting down inverter when a low battery condition
occurs. When utility or generator power is restored, the inverter transfer to the AC
source and recharges the batteries.
The series inverter can also serve as a central hub of renewable energy system. Set
the series inverter to battery priority mode to designate it to inverter-preferred UPS
configuration. In this configuration, the load power is normally provided by the inverter,
However, if the inverter output is interrupted, an internal transfer switch automatically
transfers the load from the inverter to commercial utility power. The transfer time
between inverter and line is short(6ms typically), and such transfers are normally not
detected by even highly sensitive loads. Upon restoration of battery capacity, the
inverter will transfer back to inverter power (battery).
In the line priority mode, when utility power cuts off (or drops below acceptable range),
the transfer relay is de-energized and the load is automatically transferred to inverter
output.
Once the qualified utility power is restored, the relay is energized and the load is
automatically reconnected to utility power.
It features power factor, sophisticated multi-stage charging and pure sine wave output
with unprecedentedly high surge capability to meet demanding power needs of
inductive loads without endangering the equipment.
The inverter is equipped with a powerful charger of up to 70Amp (depending on
mode). The overload capacity is 125~150% of continuous output for up to 20 seconds
to reliably support tools and equipment longer.
Another important feature is that the inverter can be easily customized to solar priority
by DIP switch, this helps to extract maximum power from solar in renewable energy
systems.
To get the most out of the power inverter, it must be installed, used and maintain
properly.
Please read the instructions in the manual before installing.

Battery Connection
CAUTION: For safety and regulation compliance, it’s requested to install a separate DC
over-current protector between battery and inverter. DO NOT bypass the over-current
breaker that’s installed between inverter and batteries. Doing so, will increase the risk of
fire and possible harm to persons.
DC Wiring Recommendation
It is recommended the battery bank be kept as close as possible to the inverter. the
following is the recommended wiring options for 3 feet long cable.
APS series inverters use 4AWG cable that meet or exceed this requirement. If there is a
need to replace the battery cables, you must use the proper size to handle the power.
If Batteries need to be moved outside the inverter enclosure and need to extend the cable,
also increase the wire gauge thickness.

One cable is always best, but cable is just copper and copper is what’s required, so it does
not matter if you use one cable or 10 cables as long as the square are adds up.
Performance of any product will be improved by thicker cable and shorter runs, so it is
recommended to keep the cables as short as possible.
Please follow steps below in case battery cables need to be replaced:
1. Install battery ring terminals on recommended cable and terminal size.
2. Connect battery pack as unit requires. APS1000-12 must have batteries connected in
parallel, and the APS2000-24 in series.
NOTE: Please only use Sealed Lead Acid or Sealed GEL/AGM Lead-Acid Batteries.
3. Connect ring terminals of battery cable into inverter battery connector and make sure
bolts are tightened. Make sure polarity is correct at both ends of the cable (battery
terminals and inverter connectors) and that ring terminals are tightly screwed to battery
terminals.
