Installing the Power
Optimizers

Applicable Notes and Warnings

The following notes and warnings apply when installing the SolarEdge
power optimizers:
NOTE:
The power optimizer is waterproof and has no need for shelter. The power optimizer
can be placed in any orientation, meaning there is no up side.
NOTE:
The power optimizer should be mounted in a location that is either ventilated or that
has a free space of air around it for heat dissipation.
NOTE
:
Mounting brackets are suited to either a flat surface or a pole and can be attached
to any surface texture.
CAUTION:
If installing directly on the module or module frame, first consult the module
manufacturer for guidance regarding location and the impact on the module warranty.
IMPORTANT SAFETY FEATURE:
PV modules with SolarEdge power optimizers are safe. They only carry a low safety
voltage before the Three Phase Inverter is turned on.
MPORTANT SAFETY FEATURE:
I
As long as the power optimizers are unconnected to the inverter and the inverter is
OFF, the power optimizers will output a safe 1V voltage during installation.
