ELECTRICAL DEVICE USE WITH THE OUTBACK™ 145
Type
Resistive
Capacitive
Inductive
Capacitive / Inductive
Common Electrical Devices
Heaters, toasters, incandescent
light bulbs, electric range, hot
pan, skillet, coffee maker.
TV sets, radios, microwaves,
appliances with electrical control.
Single-phase induction motors,
drills, well pumps, grinders, small
refrigerators, weed and hedge
trimmers.
Computers, high resolution TV sets,
complicated electrical equipment.
Possible Concerns
NONE
Voltage spikes or high voltage
regulation can cause the capac-
itative elements to fail. Surge
protection, transient protection, and
additional loading is recom-
mended for 100% fail-safe opera-
tion. DO NOT RUN
THESE DEVICES WITHOUT
ADDITIONAL RESISTIVE TYPE
LOADS.
These devices require large
current inrush for starting. (See
Table B.3, GENERATOR POWER
APPLICATIONS, in the OPERA-
TION section of this manual for
required starting wattages.)
Some synchronous motors may
be frequency sensitive to attain
maximum output torque, but
they SHOULD BE SAFE from
any frequency induced failures.
An inductive type line condition-
er along with transient and
surge protection is required,
and liabilities still exist.
DO NOT USE THESE DEVICES
WITH A OUTBACK™ 145.
The Lincoln Electric Company is not responsible for any damage to electrical components
improperly connected to a OUTBACK™ 145.
