Before installing the XW Inverter/Charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings
located in this manual.
Important: Be sure to obtain the appropriate permits, if necessary, prior to starting this
installation. Installations must meet all local codes and standards. Installations of this equipment
should only be performed by skilled personnel such as qualified electricians and Certified
Renewable Energy (RE) System installers.
WARNING: Personal Injury
The XW Inverter/Charger weighs approximately 120 pounds (54 kg). To prevent personal injury,
always use proper lifting techniques and have someone assist with lifting during installation.
The XW Inverter/Charger is certified for indoor (heated or unheated) installations only.
Locate the inverter as close to the batteries as possible in order to keep the battery cable
length short. The maximum recommended battery cable length is 10 feet (3 m).
WARNING: Explosion and Corrosion Hazard
Do not locate the inverter directly above the batteries or in the same compartment as vented
batteries.
Locate any electronic equipment susceptible to radio frequency and electromagnetic
interference as far away from the inverter as possible.
Do not locate the inverter near readily flammable materials such as cloth, paper, straw, or
plastic sheeting. Flammable materials should be kept a minimum distance of 24 inches
(60 cm) from the top surface and 12 inches (30 cm) from either side surface and the front
of the XW Inverter/Charger.
Remove your choice of knockouts from the chassis to facilitate conduit installation for
wire runs. Ensure no debris from this procedure remains inside the inverter enclosure.
Important: Do not drill, cut, or punch holes into the XW power distribution Panel. Use only the
knockouts provided for conduit entry.
