ATTENTION!!
1. Improper setting of under-frequency protection could cause the output voltage of the unit to drop or become
unstable under with changes in load. Avoid making any changes to the U/F setting unless necessary.
2. Terminal Specification：6.35mm (1/4 inch) Flagged Terminals
3. Use only replacement fuses specified in this user manual.
4. Appearance and specifications of products are subject to change for improvement without prior notice.
