If the AC Charger goes into an over temperature shutdown condition, the
40 A setting will automatically change to 10 A to reduce the charging
current. The charging current will change back to 40 A when the unit
cools to an acceptable temperature.

Connecting AC Loads

Continuous AC loads of 1440 watts (12 A) can be connected and run
from the PowerHub 1800 through the four AC outlets on the front panel.

In case of an
Overload
Shutdown....

Exceeding 1800 watts will cause the unit to display an overload error
code and the unit will shut down.

In the event of an overload shutdown, remove the loads that are connected
to the PowerHub and turn the power OFF, then back ON.

If the unit is hardwired to a sub-panel, it will also be necessary to check
the circuit breaker in the sub-panel.

In the event of an overload shutdown, if charge settings had been changed
to 10 A or 0 A prior to the shutdown, the charging parameters will have to
be reset. Otherwise, the unit will default back to the 40 A profile.

Important:

When Charger is set to 40 A or 10 A, Battery Level will flash between battery
voltage and 'FUL' when it reaches Float Mode or Off Mode. Otherwise it shows
measured battery voltage.

When AC Charger is set to 0 A, Battery Level shows measured battery voltage.

CAUTION: Equipment Damage

Never insert the AC input cord into the AC outlets on the front of the PowerHub
1800 when the batteries are connected. This can damage the unit and will void
the warranty.

Important:

Know your loads. Use the formula below to help determine the

watts of the load if only amp ratings are provided with the appliance.

Volts x Amps = Watts

Maximum watts available for continuous use on the PowerHub 1800 = 1440 W

Maximum amperage available for AC loads is 12 A.

120 V x 12 A = 1440 W
