Page 13: Normal Operation
By-pass operation In the event of maintenance on the CopperHead or failure of the SP Pro and/or the Fronius resulting in no power output from the CopperHead, you can configure the system to operate in By-pass mode. This allows the generator (or grid if connected) to provide power directly to the loads. -

Page 16: Air-Conditioning
Air-conditioning Your CopperHead is fitted with two air-conditioning units on the left and right-side doors to ensure that it is running at optimal temperature which reduces the risk of overheating and premature failure, meaning that just like the serpent it is named after, it will continue to operate where most others would perish. -
Page 17: Eight Steps To Remove/Replace A Failed Unit
In the event that the air-conditioning unit fails, it has been designed to be easily replaced as outlined below: 1. Cut the cable ties that attach the cable to the roof inside the CopperHead. 2. Unplug the cable from the power point. -
