Compoñentes clave:

  • Pantalla LED: Provides real-time information on operating status, battery charge level, and load level.
  • Main ON/OFF Switch: Controls the power to the inverter.
  • Tomas de saída de CA: Two 230V AC sockets for connecting your devices.
  • Battery Terminals (12V DC): Connect to an external 12V DC battery. Ensure correct polarity.
  • AC Input (230V): Connects the inverter to the mains power supply for charging the battery and providing power in UPS mode.
  • Ventilador de refrixeración: Dissipates heat generated during operation.
  • Interruptor: Provides protection against overcurrent.

4. Configuración

Follow these steps to set up your Rebel POWER-1000 UPS Inverter:

  1. Desembalaxe: Carefully remove the inverter from its packaging. Inspect for any signs of damage.
  2. Colocación: Place the inverter on a stable, flat surface in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and moisture. Ensure sufficient space around the unit for airflow.
  3. Conexión da batería:
    • Ensure the inverter is switched OFF.
    • Conecta o vermello cable da batería ao positivo (+) terminal of your 12V DC battery.
    • Conecta o negro cable da batería ao negativa (-) terminal of your 12V DC battery.
    • Tighten all connections securely to prevent arcing.
  4. Conexión á rede eléctrica de CA: Plug the inverter's AC input cable into a standard 230V AC wall outlet.
  5. Conexión do dispositivo: Plug the devices you wish to power into the 230V AC output sockets on the rear of the inverter. Ensure the total power consumption of connected devices does not exceed 700 W.

5. Instrucións de funcionamento

The Rebel POWER-1000 operates in three main modes:

  • UPS Mode (Emergency Power Supply): When connected to mains power, the inverter charges the external battery and simultaneously supplies power to connected devices. In case of a power outage, it automatically switches to battery power within <4 ms, providing uninterrupted power.
  • Rectifier Mode (Battery Charger): When connected to mains power without any load, the inverter functions as a battery charger, replenishing the external battery.
  • Modo inversor: When not connected to mains power, the inverter converts 12V DC battery power into 230V AC pure sine wave power for your connected devices.

Arranque do inversor:

  1. Ensure all connections (battery, AC input, loads) are secure.
  2. Press the main ON/OFF switch on the front panel. The LED display will illuminate, indicating the current operating status, battery charge, and load level.
  3. The inverter will automatically select the appropriate operating mode based on the presence of mains power and connected loads.
