Mounting Instructions
1. Remove the PD1600 series inverter from its packaging, verify that all components are present, and record the inverter serial number in
the quick reference guide contained within.
2. Select an appropriate mounting location and orientation (See Page 8 for additional details regarding acceptable installation practices).
3. Use the inverter as a drill guide by placing it flush against the mounting surface and marking the appropriate hole locations in the
mounting surface (see Figure 7). Horizontal mounting of the PD1600 Series Inverter is recommended (see Figure 6), although it can be
mounted in a vertical position that provides unobstructed ventilation to the fan and vent holes.
4. If mounting vertically, mount the PD1600 Series Inverter that the wiring compartment is facing down (see Figure 5). This will ensure
that the display will be oriented correctly. It is best to ensure that PD1600 series inverter is placed in an area that keep dust & debris
from entering the fan area. Debris may cause unexpected performance issues in your inverter.
5. Pilot-drill the mounting holes in the marked locations
6. Secure the PD1600 Series Inverter firmly to the mounting surface using standard fasteners
