MODEL NO’s: DPI150 DPI300

Thank you for purchasing a Soyond product. Manufactured to a high standard,

this product will, if used according to these instructions. and maintained properly,

give you years of trouble free performance.

IMPORTANT:

SPECIFICALLY, PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS INVERTER SHOULD NOT BE USED IN

CONNECTION WITH LIFE SUPPORT SYSTEM OR OTHER MEDICAL EQUIPMENT

OR DEVICES. BEFORE USING THE INVERTER, YOU NEED READ AND SAVE THE

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.

Refer to Instruction

Manual

1. SAFETY



DANGER! - Beware, Misusing or incorrectly connecting the SOYOND

DPI may damage the equipment or create hazardous conditions for

users. Read the following safety instructions and pay special attention

to all Caution and Warning statements in the guide. Warnings identify

conditions that may result in personal injury and lose of life. Cautions

identify conditions or practices that may damage the unit or other

equipment.

KEEP AWAY from children. DPI series inverter generates the same potentially

lethal AC power as a normal household wall outlets. Treat it with the same

repect that you would any AC outlets.





DO NOT insert any objects into AC outlets or fan hole.

DO NOT expose the DPI150/300 to water, rain, snow or spray.

DO NOT connect DPI150/300 to power utility AC distribution wiring under any

circumstances.

DPI150/300 housing may become uncomfortably warm, reaching 140° F (60° C)

underextended high power operation.







DO NOT use DPI150/300 in the presence of flammable fumes or gases, such as

in the bilge of a gasoline powered boat, or near propane tanks.

DO NOT use the in an enclosure containing automotive-type, lead-acid batteries.

These batteries, unlike sealed batteries, vent explosive hydrogen gas, which can

be ignited by sparks from electrical connections.

DO NOT replace any vehicle fuse with a rating higher than recommended by the

Vehicle Manufacturer. Ensure that the electrical system in your vehicle

can supply this product without causing the vehicle fusing to open. Information

on the vehicle fuse rating is typically found in the vehicle operator’s manual.If a

vehicle fuse opens repeatedly, do not keep on replacing it. The cause of the

overload must be found. On no account should fuses be patched up with tin foil

or wire as this may cause serious damage elsewhere in the electrical circuit or

cause fire.

CAUTION: Some chargers for small nickel-cadmium batteries can be damaged

if connected to DPI150/300.

DO NOT use the inverter with the following appliances:

• Small battery-operated appliances like rechargeable flashlights, some

rechargeable shavers, and night lights that are plugged directly into an AC

receptacle to recharge.

• Battery chargers used in hand power tools. These chargers display a warning

label stating that dangerous voltages are present at the charger battery terminals.

SAFETY FEATURES

• Overload protection with automatic shutdown

• Low battery voltage shutdown

• High-input voltage protection with automatic shutdown

• Overheat protection with automatic shutdown

• Output short circuit protection.

ENSURE at least 2 inches of air space is all sides of DPI150/300 during operation.

KEEP AWAY from materials that may be affected by high temperatures.



DPI150 and DPI300 is capable of continuously powering most 110 volt AC

products that use 120W and 240W or less. Its AC output waveform is modified sine

wave, is designed to function similarly to the sine wave shape of utility power. Most

AC products rated for 120W and 240W or less will operate normally with DPI150

and DPI300.

The power or wattage rating of AC products is the average power they use. When

many AC products are first switched on, the initially consume more power than their

power rating. TVs, monitors and electric motors are examples of products that have

high surge power as high as 300W and 600W. Ocaasionally some products rated

less than 120W and 240W may exceed its surge capabilities and trigger its safety

overload shutdown feature.

>>Indicators controls and connectors

● An AC outlets is provided on one end of the inverter. A 110-volt AC products with

a continuous power consumption of 120W and 240W or less can be plugged in.

● The inverter receiveds its operating power through its DC plug that fits standard

vehicle cigarette lighter sockets and 12-volt power outlets.

● The ON/OFF switch enables output AC power at the AC outlet when switch on.

● The green POWER light indicates AC power is present at AC outlet and the

inverters operates normally.

● The red FAULT light indicates inverter shutdown caused by low or high battery

voltage, overload or excessive temperature.

>>Inverter operation

● Plug the inverter DC plug into a vehicle’s cigarette lighter or 12V outlet.

● Turn the AC products you need to operate the AC outlet and switch it on. As

the battery charge issued up battery voltage will begin to fall. When inverter

senses the voltage at its DC input has dropped to 10.7V then audio warning.

When input voltage drop to 10.0V this inverter will automatically shut down to

prevent battery over discharge. The RED fault light illuminates.

2. USING DPI

● If the inverter exceeds a safe operation temperature due to insufficient ventilation

or a high temperature environment, it will automatically shut down. Then RED

fault light will turn on.

● In the event of overload, low battery voltage or overheating. The inverter will

automatically shut down.

CAUTION! Although the inverter has protection against over voltage, it may still

be damaged if the input voltage exceeds 16V.

>>Interference with electronic equipment

Generally most AC products are operated by inverter just as they are driven by

household AC power. Below is information concerning two possible exceptions.

(1) Buzz sound in audio systems

Some inexpensive stereo system and boom box have inadequate internal power

supply filtering and buzz slightly when powered by the inverter.

(2) TV signals interferred

The inverter is shielded to minimize interference with TV signals. However there

will still weak signals interference maybe visible in the form of lines scrolling

across the screen.

>>Interference solution

● Use an extension cord to increase distance between inverter and TV.

● Adjust the direction of the inverter, antenna and cables.

● Maximize TV signal strength by using a better antenna and use shielded antenna

cable if possible.

● Try a different TV model. Different models televisions vary considerably in their

susceptibility to interference.

>>Battery operating time



When using the DPI150/ DPI300 inverter, operating time will vary depending on

the charge level of battery. Its capacity and the power level drawn by particular

AC load. With a typical vehicle battery and a 50 watts load(such as a portable

stereo/CD player), an operating time of 5-6 hours or more could be expected.

When using a vehicle battery as a power source, it is strongly recommended

to start the vehicle every hour or two to recharge the battery before its capacity

drops too low. The inverter can operate while the engine is running. But the

normal voltage drop that occurs during starting mant trigger the inverter’s low

voltage shutdown feature.

3. TROUBLESHOOTING

● Problem: AC products will not operate. No inverter lights ON.

● Problem: Measured inverter output is too low

Possible cause:

Poor contact with lighter

socket or 12 volt outlet

(1) Lighter socket or 12

volt outlet may reuquire

ignition to be switched on

(2) Cigarette lighter or

12volt outlet fuse is blown

Inverter unit has been

connected with reverse

DC input polarity

Check vehicle fuses and replace

blown fuse with correct value

Probable inverter damage has

occured. Have unit repaired.

Suggestion:

Press plug firmly into socket.

Clean plug or socket if necessary

Turn key to accessory position

Possible cause:

Standard “average

reading”AC voltmeter

used to measure output

voltage, resulting in an

apparent reading 5 to

15 V too low.

Suggestion:

Inverter’s “modified sine wave”

output requires “true RMS”

voltmeter for accurate measurements.

Possible cause:

AC product power

comsunption is higher

than rated

Suggestion:

Use a large battery to make up

for increased power requirement

Possible cause:

AC product(s) connected

are rated at more than

the inverter’s continuous

power rating; overload

shutdown has occurred.

Suggestion:

Use a product with a power

rating less than the inverter’s

continuous power rating.

Battery voltage is too

low

Recharge the battery

Battery is old or defective

Battery is not being

properly charged

Replace battery.

Have a vehicle electrial system

checked by a qualified technician

● Problem: Battery run time is less than expected

● Problem: AC product will not operate, red FAULT light ON

4. SPECIFICATION
