HTS-1824_3024-GD-0114-EN 3
1 INTRODUCTION
Congratulations! You have purchased one of the most sophisticated and reliable power inverters of the industry.
Incorporating the latest technologies, it will deliver years of trouble free operation for your truck, boat, RV or
other “OFF Grid” system.
1) In order to get the most out of your inverter, the installation procedure must be followed carefully.
Please thoroughly read this manual before installing and using your new inverter. It is important to
pay special attention to the CAUTION and WARNING statements in this manual as well as on the
inverter.
2) The electrical current at the input and output of your inverter may cause severe personal injury;
make certain that you have read and understood all the sections of this manual before installing and
using your inverter.
3) The inverter produces an electrical current similar to what’s found in most North American homes,
with all the accompanying hazards.
4) Be sure to install the product out of the reach of children.
5) Should the inverter be exposed to rain, moisture, or strong impact, have it inspected by a qualified
technician before use.
1.1 Disclaimer
The electrical code varies depending on location and the type of installation. Electrical installations must meet
local and national wiring codes and should be performed by a qualified electrician. Tundra International Inc. is
not liable for any incidental, consequential or other damages arising from the use, misuse or operation of this
product; including, without limitation, damages resulting from loss of use, cost of removal, installation, or
troubleshooting. All Tundra products specifications are subject to change without notice.
1.2 Output waveform
The AC output of your inverter is regulated to 120 volts/60Hz and its waveform is called a “Pure Sine Wave.” It
is a waveform identical to the sine waves delivered by utility power.
2 FRONT PANEL / REAR PANEL & REMOTE CONTROL
2.1 Front panel
ON/OFF switch: The ON/OFF switch located on the remote control (factory installed on the inverter front
panel) turns the inverter’s control circuit ON and OFF. It does not disconnect power
from the inverter; you must disconnect the AC (120 Volt) and DC (24 Volt) power
before working on any circuits connected to the inverter. When the switch is ON but
no power is being supplied to a load, the inverter draws less than 500 mA. This is a very
low current draw but left in this state the inverter will eventually drain your batteries
until its automatic shutdown at 21 Volt. When the switch is OFF, the inverter draw is Ø
(zero).
