Mounting and Connecting the Primary and Secondary Unit(s)
2. To allow proper heat dissipation, maintain the following minimum clearance areas between the
inverter and other objects:
NOTE
The Primary unit is longer than the Secondary Unit, therefore make sure the mounting location is
high enough to fit the Primary Unit and leaves sufficient space for cable entry.
If installing a single inverter:
l
At least 20 cm (8") from the top and bottom of each unit. For the Primary Unit, make sure to
o
leave sufficient clearance for cable entry.
3 cm (1.2") f rom the right and left of the unit.
o
If installing multiple inverters:
l
When installing inverters one above of the other, leave at least 40 cm (16") between inverters.
o
When installing the Primary Unit , leave 40 cm (16") between the top of the Primary Unit and
the bottom of the Connection Unit.
When installing inverters side by side:
o

3. Position the mounting brackets against the wall and mark the required drilling holes locations with
the supplied level. The level markings correspond to a distance of 3 cm between units
4. Drill two holes for each bracket and mount the brackets.
5. Put in the screws without tightening in order to correct positioning.
6. Place the level beneath the brackets a nd align the brackets, tighten the screws all the way and verify
that the brackets are firmly attached to the mounting surface.
7. Mount the Primary Unit:
