INSTRUCTION MANUAL
• Before using the SVS please read all instructions carefully.
• Keep these instructions for future reference.
™
Safety
• All equipment designed and manufactured by Sollatek (UK) Ltd complies with the latest safety codes of practice. You should still follow all safety instructions and use
caution when installing and operating electrical equipment.
• To avoid the risk of shock, DO NOT expose this equipment to rain, moisture or liquid spillage.
• Before attempting to use the SVS (Sollatek Voltage Stabiliser) ensure that the total loading of your equipment does not exceed the maximum rating of the SVS.
To check the rating of your SVS, refer to the label on the back of the unit.
• Do not attempt to dismantle the SVS, to do so will invalidate the guarantee. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
Description
As both high and low mains voltage can damage your electrical equipment, the Sollatek SVS is designed to monitor and correct the incoming supply continuously.
If the voltage rises or drops, the SVS will stabilise the output to ensure that the voltage reaching your equipment remains constant at 230V (±6%) , within the operating
range of the unit.
The Sollatek SVS has a modern state of the art 7 LED display to indicate accurately the state of the input at all times and 5 LEDs to indicate the output voltage supplied to
your load.
The Sollatek SVS is unique in having a built-in Sollatek AVS™ (Automatic Voltage Switcher). This adds the following protective functions;
a) Provides a start-up delay which prevents rapid switching ON and OFF of the appliance in serious fluctuations. This is especially important for loads that use
compressors (e.g. Fridges, Freezers, Coolers, Air conditioners) and vital for sensitive electronic equipment like computers, photocopiers, fax machines, lab equipment,
medical instruments etc.
b) Provides a shutdown and disconnect function whereby it will disconnect switch off your equipment in cases where the fluctuations are extremely BAD and the SVS
can not safely correct the voltage.
c) The Sollatek SVS has a built-in microprocessor which adds the advanced feature TimeSave™. TimeSave™ means that when the mains return to normal from a
brown-out, the SVS checks the duration of the OFF time.
The SVS also protects your electrical equipment against power spikes and surges. By using the SVS you will ensure a stable, and clean voltage supply to your equipment.
The SVS04-22 is designed for usage with fridges, freezers, coolers and vending machines rated up to 4Amps.

Unpacking & Inspection
After removing the polystyrene protective packaging from the SVS unit, inspect the ventilation slots to ensure that they are free from all obstruction. Use a vacuum
cleaner to dislodge any obstructions.
Retain the box and packaging material to return the SVS unit in the unlikely event of its operational failure.
Installation
WARNING: This appliance must be earthed. Ensure the rating of the load doesn’t exceed the capacity of the SVS. If in doubt consult your electrician.
If your mains outlet only has a 2-pin socket, consult a qualified electrician. If you are unfamiliar with installing electrical equipment consult a qualified electrician.
• Although the unit does not produce excessive heat, ensure that it is positioned so that a free flow of air allows the unit to cool.
• Do not install inside a closed cupboard and do not allow papers or other materials to be piled on top.
Standard operation
instructions
Please follow the procedure below to connect your SVS;
1 Turn your equipment OFF and unplug it from the wall socket.
2 Ensure that the switch on the SVS is OFF.
3 Plug the SVS into the wall socket or input and plug your
equipment into the SVS.
4 Turn the power ON at the wall socket.
5 Turn the SVS switch ON.
6 Turn your equipment ON.
7 The SVS model has a built-in AVS (Sollatek Automatic
Voltage Switcher).
This will ensure that that the load is not
connected immediately. The delay will ensure that the mains
is good before connecting the load and protects
the equipment from rapid switching on and off.
8 Once the wait period (see specifications) has passed, the
SVS will relay power to your equipment.
9 The LEDs give you a visual indication of the input and
output voltage.
10 If the mains voltage is 230V (ie normal) the green 0%
Input voltage and green 0% Output voltage LEDs will
both be lit.
11 Any variation to the input power supply, up or down,
will be monitored and adjusted by the SVS.
Operating Sequence
1. Input voltage increase is displayed in steps of
+5%, +10% and +15% and input voltage
decrease is displayed in steps of -10%, -15%
and -25%.
The SVS indicates the plus or minus voltage
variation by lighting the relevant LED.
2. Within this range, the SVS will compensate by
stepping up or stepping down the output voltage
to maintain it’s norm of 230V + 6%, which will be
indicated by the green 0% LED.
3 If however the input voltage falls below -26%, the
SVS will decrease the output voltage accordingly.
The amount to which the voltage is lowered will be
indicated by the yellow -10% or red -20% LED.
4 Equally, if the input voltage rises above +18% (272V) the SVS will increase the
output voltage, indicated by the 10% or red +15% LED.
5 In the models where the AVS functions is incorporated, If the incoming voltage
supply drops below the operating range of the SVS (144V or 72V for 110V unit)
or above its operating (291V or 145V for 110V unit) it will shut down the output
and protect your equipment against the severe incoming voltage.
6 Power will be automatically reinstated to your appliance once the input voltage
comes within the operating range of the SVS and the delay period has passed.
