[Install the inverter vertically.]
Installing the inverter in any other way decreases
its heat dissipation effect and results in malfunction.
[Make sure the ambient temperature
stays within the specification.]
The ambient temperature surrounding the
inverter will increase when it is installed near a
heating unit or housed inside a panel. This may
reduce the life of the inverter. If you want to
house the inverter inside a panel, give careful
consideration to the cooling method and panel
size.
