Storage in cold temperatures and high humidity
If the Sunny Central is connected to the external voltage supply and the circuit breaker of the supply voltage is
switched on during storage, the heating element will activate automatically when humidity is high
(see Section 12.3.8 "Connecting the External Supply Voltage", page 60).
If the supply voltage is not connected during storage, the maximum storage period of the inverter is twelve months.
Desiccant bag in the inverter cabinet
