Safety
CAUTION!
When accessing the internal circuit of the inverter, it is very
important to wait 5 minutes before operating the power circuit or
demounting the electrolyte capacitors inside the device. Do not open
the device beforehand since the capacitors require time to
sufficiently discharge!
CAUTION!
Use insulated tools when installing the device. Individual protective
tools must be worn during installation, electrical connection and
maintenance.
NOTE!
The inverter is heavy. Use of lift equipment is recommended.
NOTE!
Make sure that existing wiring is in good condition and that wire is
not undersized.
NOTE!
Measure the voltage between terminals UDC+ and UDC- with a
multi-meter (impedance at least 1Mohm) to ensure that the device
is discharged before working (35VDC) inside the device.

Lightning and surge protection
EVERVOLT Hybrid inverter is designed and certified to meet stringent UL1741 / IEEE
1547 and ANSI / IEEE 62.41 / 62.42 lighting and surge requirements.
However, every PV installation is unique. Additional external UL / NEC AC and DC
surge protection and solid grounding practices are recommended.
Battery safety instructions
►
EVERVOLT Hybrid inverter should be coupled with a high voltage battery. The battery
must comply with UL 1973 and must be intrinsically safe.
As accumulator batteries may contain potential electric shock and short-circuit
current dangers, the following warnings should be observed during battery
replacement to avoid accidents that might be thus resulted:
Do not wear watches, rings or similar metallic items.
Ÿ
Use insulated tools.
Ÿ
Put on rubber shoes and gloves.
Ÿ
Do not place metallic tools and similar metallic parts on the batteries.
Ÿ
Switch off loads connected to the batteries before dismantling battery
Ÿ
connection terminals.
Only personnel with proper expertise
