LOWELL, Ark., June 28, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Purkeys, a company focused on providing electrical solutions for the heavy-duty trucking industry, is the ultimate resource for inverter training.
Purkeys Inverters take 12V, DC power from tractor batteries and efficiently convert it to 110 VAC power. This allows drivers to operate devices, such as laptops and microwaves, while on the road.
On Purkeys' YouTube Channel there are videos available that can inform technicians and drivers how to install, operate, and troubleshoot an inverter. These videos cover proper installation, testing input voltage, measuring output voltage, and protocols for resetting inverters.
"An inverter is a limited power supply," Larry Rambeaux, Purkeys national fleet and truck sales representative. "You have to understand how the loads effect the vehicle and how much it is pulling from the batteries. A technician needs to be able to understand this and explain it to a driver."
Having a Purkeys inverter allows drivers to take some comforts from home out on the road. Purkeys inverters monitor the input voltage to protect the truck's batteries from excessive draining. They have a higher low-voltage disconnect point than most other inverters. This protects the vehicles' batteries from becoming too severely discharged to start.
Inverters are good tools for drivers, but they can only do so much. It is important to understand how much an inverter can handle. With the educational tools provided by Purkeys, technicians and drivers will know how to correctly and safely operate an inverter.
