2. INSTALLATION

1. Unpacking and Inspection

Carefully remove the ME Series inverter from its shipping container and inspect all

contents. If items appear to be missing or damaged, contact Magnum Energy at (425) 353-8833 or your

authorized Magnum Energy dealer. If at all possible, retain the shipping container in the event the unit ever

needs to be returned for factory service.

ATTENTION: Electrostatic Sensitive Devices. Observe precautions for

handling.

2. Pre-Installation

Before installing the inverter, read all of the instructions and cautionary markings

contained in this manual.

NOTE: The inverter is heavy. Use proper lifting techniques during installation to

prevent personal injury.

Locating the Inverter

The inverter must be mounted in a clean, dry, ventilated environment where the ambient temperatures

will not exceed 122 ºF (50 ºC). The location must be fully accessible and protected from exposure to heat

producing devices. You can mount the inverter horizontally, vertically or upside-down. It must

be securely fastened to a shelf, bulkhead, or other structural part.

Allow enough clearance to access the AC and DC connection points as well as the

inverter’s controls and status indicator. As with any inverter, it should be located as

close to the batteries as possible. Longer battery cable runs tend to loose efficiency and reduce the overall

performance of an inverter.

If you are planning to install dedicated batteries, other than the vehicle’s, make sure

they are in a dedicated compartment that has ventilation to the outside. Also it is important that you never

mount the inverter directly above the batteries as they emit corrosive fumes which could damage

the inverter’s electronics.

Locating Dedicated Batteries (optional)

Dedicated batteries must be mounted in a clean, dry, ventilated environment where they are protected

from high and low temperatures. The batteries must be mounted upright (if using liquid batteries) and

securely fastened to the vehicle. The location must be fully accessible and protected from

exposure to heat producing devices.

To ensure optimum performance, a ventilated battery enclosure is recommended. The batteries should be

located as close as possible to the inverter. Longer battery cable runs tend to loose efficiency and

reduce the overall performance of an inverter. Also, do not mount the batteries beneath the

inverter (or in the same compartment). Batteries emit corrosive fumes which could damage the

inverter’s electronics.

NOTE: For optimum performance, Magnum Energy recommends using AGM

(absorbed glass mat) batteries such as Lifeline

brand batteries.

CAUTION: Never locate dedicated batteries near the vehicle’s fuel tanks containing gasoline or

propane.
