Restrictions on Motor Size

An appliance may require three to six times its normal running current in order to start.

The Conext SW can handle surges up to twice its rated amount (surge current) for five

seconds. For example, the model Conext SW 4024 230 is rated as having a maximum

continuous output current of 16 amps. Its surge current is twice this value, which is

32 amps. In motors, the locked rotor amp (also called its starting current) may be

specified on the motor nameplate as “LRA” or “LRI”. The LRA must be no more than the

surge current for the inverter to handle the motor load.

When considering appliances with large motors, follow these guidelines:

• Make sure that the motor’s LRA rating is no more than surge current amps. The

Conext SW may not be able to start a motor with a higher LRA, and the Conext SW

will shut down if the attempt is made.

• Make sure the battery bank, DC cables and DC fuses are capable of handling up to

600 amps DC for five seconds. A weaker circuit may not be able to provide

sufficient power to the Conext SW to allow the Conext SW to start up the appliance.

Again, if the circuit cannot deliver the required current, the system may shut down

or the fuse may open.
