3 Installation Guidelines

This chapter describes the mechanical installation and electric installation.
 Only qualified electricians are allowed to carry out what described in this chapter. Please
operate as the instructions in Safety Precautions. Ignoring these may cause physical injury
or death or damage to the devices.
 Ensure the power supply of the inverter is disconnected during the operation. Wait for at
least the time designated until the POWER indicator is off after the disconnection if the
power supply is applied.
 The installation and design of the inverter should be comply with the requirement of the
local laws and regulations at the installation site. If the installation infringes the requirement,
IMO will exempt from any responsibility. Additionally, if users do not comply with the
recommendation, some damage beyond the assured maintenance range may occur.

3.1 Mechanical installation

3.1.1 Installation environment
The installation environment is the safeguard for a full performance and long-term operation of the inverter. Check
the installation environment as following:
Environment
Installation site
Environment
temperature
Humidity
Storage
temperature
Running environment
condition
Indoor
-10℃ ~＋40℃, and the temperature changing rate is less than 0.5℃/minute.
If the ambient temperature of the inverter is above 40℃, derate 3% for every
additional 1℃.
It is not recommended to use the inverter if the ambient temperature is above 60℃.
In order to improve the reliability of the device, do not use the inverter if the ambient
temperature changes frequently.
Please provide cooling fan or air conditioner to control the internal ambient
temperature below the max limit if the inverter is used in a close space such as in a
control cabinet.
When the temperature is too low, if the inverter needs to restart to run after a long
stop, it is necessary to provide an external heating device to increase the internal
temperature, otherwise damage to the devices may occur.
RH≤90%
Prevent condensation.
The maximum relative humidity should be equal to or less than 60% in corrosive
air.
-40 ℃~＋70℃, and the temperature changing rate is less than 1℃/minute.
The installation site of the inverter should be
kept away from ant electromagnetic radiation source;
kept away from contaminative air, such as corrosive gas, oil mist and flammable
gas;
