Preparation for installing the unit

6.2. Environment

• Place the units in a place which is accessible for installation and maintenance work and which permits
use of the keyboard and the reading of the front indicator LEDs.
• The air vents and part of the power module can reach high temperatures. Do not place any material
nearby which is sensitive to high air temperatures.
• Avoid corrosive environments that may affect the proper operation of the inverter.
• Never place any object on top of the unit.
• It is recommended to protect the units from direct sunlight. Place the units under a cover that protects
them from direct radiation, placing the front part facing north in the Northern Hemisphere and facing
south in the Southern Hemisphere.

6.3. Environmental conditions

Environmental conditions must be taken into account when choosing the location of the unit.
Maximum relative humidity without condensation
If installing the Low temperature operating kit, the minimum operating temperature is -22 ºF (-30 ºC).
(1)
Operation of the inverter at temperatures greater than 122 ºF (50 ºC) should only occur occasionally and not permanently. Ingeteam
(2)
is not responsible for the consequences to the unit resulting from operating it at temperatures higher than 122 ºF (50 ºC).
(3) At altitudes higher than 3300 ft (1000 m), please contact Ingeteam.
It should be borne in mind that moderate condensation may occasionally occur as a consequence of temperature
variations. For this reason, apart from the unit's own protection, it is necessary to monitor these units once they
have been started up on sites where the conditions described above are not expected to be present.
In the event of condensation, never apply voltage to the unit. To remove condensation apply a flow of hot air at a
maximum temperature of 140 ºF (60 ºC).
INFO
Ingeteam does not guarantee the proper operation of the equipment if the operation conditions for which it has
been designed are not fulfilled.
