Installati on and Start-Up
– The unit is designed for vertical wall installation.
– Air must be allowed to circulate freely around the housing
and through the heat sink on the rear side.
– If the inverter is built into a switching cabinet or similar,
provide forced ventilation to ensure that heat is sufficiently
dissipated.
– The heat sink may reach a max. temperature of 194°F.
Therefore, mount the inverter only on walls made from
heat-resistant material.
– Ensure that the wall has adequate load-bearing capacity and
use appropriate installation material.
– Be sure to install the inverter in a sufficiently elevated place,
especially in areas prone to flooding, however it is important
to note that the minimum distance to ground is 3 feet when
mounted outdoors.
– Installation at eye level makes it easier to read the display.
– Mount the inverter in a location where the ambient tempe-
rature is ideally in the range of-4° to +104°F.
