Troubleshooting Troubleshooting 7 Troubleshooting 7.1 Troubleshooting This section contains information and procedures for solving possible problems with X1 series inverters, and provides you with troubleshooting tips to identify and solve most problems that could occur with the X1 series inverters. This section will help you narrow down the source of any problems you may encounter.
Troubleshooting Troubleshooting 7.2 Routine Maintenance Inverters do not need any maintenance or correction in most condition,but if the inverter often loses power due to overheating,this can be the following reason: ● The cooling fins on the rear of house are coverd by dirts. Clean the cooling fins with a soft dry cloth or brush if necessary.
Decommissioning 8 Decommissioning 8.1 Dismantling the Inverter Disconnect the inverter from DC Input and AC output. Wait for 5 minutes for de-energizing. Disconnect communication and optional connection wirings. Remove the inverter from the bracket. Remove the bracket if necessary. WARNING ! Before dismantling the inverter, please be sure to disconnect the DC switch, and then unplug the PV and AC cables, otherwise it will lead to an electric shock hazard.
