Installation - Victron energy MultiPlus 12/3000/120 – 50 Manual

4. Installation

This product may only be installed by a qualified electrical engineer.
4.2 Location
The product must be installed in a dry and well-ventilated area, as close as possible
to the batteries. There should be a clear space of at least 10 cm (4 inch) around the
appliance for cooling.
Excessively high ambient temperature will result in the following:
Reduced service life.
Reduced charging current.
Reduced peak capacity, or shutdown of the inverter.
Never position the appliance directly above the batteries.
The MultiPlus is suitable for wall mounting. For mounting purposes, a hook and two
holes are provided at the back of the casing (see appendix G). The device can be
fitted either horizontally or vertically. For optimal cooling, vertical fitting is preferred.
The interior of the product must remain accessible after installation.
Try and keep the distance between the product and the battery to a minimum in order
to minimize cable voltage losses.
For safety purposes, this product should be installed in a heat-resistant
environment. You should prevent the presence of e.g. chemicals, synthetic
components, curtains or other textiles, etc., in the immediate vicinity.
