Victron energy 12/20 User Manual page 9

Location
The Centaur Charger must be installed in a dry, well-ventilated
area.
Too high an ambient temperature has the consequence of lower
output, shorter life or a complete shutdown of the Centaur
Charger.
The Centaur Charger is suitable for floor and wall mounting.
However, for optimum cooling, a vertical position is recommended.
The cables between the Centaur Charger and the battery must be
kept as short as possible to minimize cable losses. Input/output
connections refer to Figure 1.
Required tools and cables
• M6 Socket driver.
