Use within + 10%, -15% of the tolerable input
voltage range, and with in¡À5% of the tolerable
input frequency range.
Size a breaker from the selection table on
page 21.
A magnetic contactor is not required in normal
use. If installed, do not start or stop the inverter
with the magnet contactor.
Connect this when the power factor must be
improved.
The ambient temperature is the most important
factor for the installation site.
Make sure that the tolerable value is not
exceeded. (See page 12)
The thermal relay built into the inverter is used
to protect against overloads.
Use an open phase protection thermal relay
for open phase protection.
