Minimum Clearance; Wall Mounting - SMA Sunny Island 5048 Installation Instructions Manual

Mounting the Device

4.1.3 Minimum Clearance

Air enters the Sunny Island 5048 through the underside
of the housing and then flows through the device before
exiting through the air grills on top of the housing.
When installing the device, a minimum clearance of 20
cm at the sides and 10 cm above the housing must be
provided to ensure adequate ventilation of the Sunny
Island 5048.
All external cables are connected through the underside
of the housing. This requires a minimum clearance of at
least 30 cm.
Operation of the device and reading the display is much
easier when the Sunny Island 5048 is installed with the
display at eye-level with at least 50 cm clearance in front.
When installing the Sunny Island 5048 in smaller rooms, make sure that adequate
ventilation is available. The device produces heat when operating that must be
removed.
Several Sunny Island 5048 devices can be installed on top of each other without
any problems, since the active OptiCool® ventilation system dissipates the heat.
The integrated fans are controlled in a temperature-dependent manner.

4.1.4 Wall Mounting

Do not install the Sunny Island 5048
• on flammable construction materials,
• in areas where highly inflammable materials are stored,
• in potentially explosive areas!
The Sunny Island 5048 may only be operated hanging vertically. Since
condensation can build up in the device, horizontal operation is not
permitted!
The Sunny Island 5048 weighs 63 kg. Take this weight into account when choosing the
installation site and method of installation.
Protect the Sunny Island 5048 from direct sunlight. High temperatures lead to lower
performance of the battery inverter.
