FAULT TRACING LIST
6.1
G
ENERAL
This list will facilitate the rapid tracing of the most common types of
faults. Before performing checks on the inverters you must:
G
disconnect all 12 V, 24 V and 48 V external equipment from the
batteries;
G
bear in mind that some equipment (such as certain TV sets, video
recorders, audio equipment, measuring instruments and navigation
equipment) requires sine-wave voltage in order to function
correctly. Victron Energie supplies its series of Phoenix sinusoidal
inverters with powers of 350 W to 1500 W for this type of
equipment.

T
HE INVERTER FAILS TO START
Set the "inverter" switch to "on" and check whether the
Step 1
green "on" LED lights up. Go to step 2.
If the green "on" LED does NOT light up and theAtlas
Step 2
inverter produces only a "buzzing" noise and/or the
"overload" LED lights up after a few seconds, go to step 3. If
this does not happen, go to step 4.
Remove the load from the AC output and check whether the
Step 3
"on" LED now lights up when the inverter is switched on. If
it does not, go to step 9.
Step 4
If the green "on" LED does light up, check the input voltage
of the batteries on the terminals of the Atlas inverter. The
input voltage should be between two values, i.e.:
Atlas 12/1600
Atlas 24/850
Atlas 24/1600
Atlas 48/850
Atlas 48/1600
Go to step 5 if the input voltage does not fall between these
minimum and maximum values.If the input voltage is
correct, go to step 7.
