Aftermarket Inverter and DC Cable Kit Installation for Freightliner Cascadia Determine a suitable dry Inverter location providing adequate air flow in the cab area. See suggested mounting location picture to right. • Mount inverter with (4) #12 X 1” HEX TEC screws provided in the cable kit, center and square unit (raise unit off floor 2-3”). • Determine a clear position to route DC cables thru bunk wall and floor with pass thru connectors and lock nuts. (Look underneath cab floor to stay clear of any obstructions and hot surfaces.) • Connect the 1/0 Red cable to the inverter “+” lug and 1/0 Black to the inverter “-” lug, using the red and black boots provided with inverter. Pay close attention to polarity, this Eaton Inverter will NOT withstand reverse polarity to main DC connections. Connect the provided 10 ga black cable to the inverter chassis ground connection near negative terminal and bond to a good truck frame ground. • Using 2 sided tie bands and #10 x 1.5 Hex TEC screws provided, route cables securing at 12-18 inch intervals underneath cab to the cab rail channels into the battery box area. Route clear of any sharp edges, moving parts, or heated components. • Attach the provided CFBar fuse holder, fuse and red cover to the battery positive cable and attach to the 12V positive battery stack. Attach the negative cable last to the 12V negative battery stack. (Careful the first time energizing the inverter, it will may create a spark.) A good practice is to connect to opposite ends of the battery stack for positive and negative connections, thus pulling across the full battery stack for inverter power. Fuse size provided, 200A rating for 1000W and 300A rating for 1800W kit. 1 3 2 4 5
Aftermarket Inverter and DC Cable Kit Installation for Volvo VNL Determine a suitable dry Inverter location providing adequate air flow in the cab area. • Mount inverter with (4) #12 X 1” HEX TEC screws provided in the cable kit, center and square unit. Allow 2” air clearance at rear fan. • Determine a clear position to route DC cables thru bunk wall and floor with pass thru connectors and lock nuts. (Look underneath cab floor to stay clear of any obstructions and hot surfaces.) • Connect the 1/0 Red cable to the inverter “+” lug and 1/0 Black to the inverter “-” lug , using the red and black boots provided with inverter. Pay close attention to polarity, this Eaton Inverter will NOT withstand reverse polarity to main DC connections.
