Mounting The Inverter - SolarEdge storedge Installation Manual

Mounting the Inverter

The inverter is supplied with a mounting bracket.
NOTE
Make sure the mounting surface or structure can support the weight of the inverter and bracket, and
make sure that it spans the width of the bracket.
CAUTION!
HEAVY OBJECT. To avoid muscle strain or back injury, use proper lifting techniques, and if required - a
lifting aid when removing or replacing.
Objet lourd. Pour éviter la fatigue musculaire ou des blessures au dos, utilisez des techniques de levage
appropriées et, si nécessaire - un auxiliaire de levage lors du retrait ou du remplacement.
1. Determine the inverter mounting location, on a wall, stud framing or pole. To allow proper heat
dissipation, maintain the following minimum clearance areas between the inverter and other objects:
If installing a single inverter:
l
8" (20 cm) t o the top o f the inverter.
o
4" (10 cm) to the bottom of the StorEdge Connection Unit.
o
4" (10 cm) to the right and left of the inverter.
o
If installing multiple inverters:
l
When installing inverters one above the other, leave at least 8" (20 cm) between the top of an
o
inverter and the bottom of the StorEdge Connection Unit.
When installing inverters side by side, leave 8" (20 cm) between inverters.
o
2. Position the mounting bracket against the wall/pole and mark the drilling hole locations :
Ensure that the flat side of the bracket is at the bottom, as in Figure 12.
o
Use at least two bracket holes. Additional holes can be used to fix the bracket. Determine which
o
and how many holes to use according to mounting surface type and material.
3. Drill the holes and mount the bracket. Verify that the bracket is firmly attached to the mounting
surface.
NOTE
When mounting an inverter on an uneven surface, you may use spacers/ washers behind the top
mounting hole of the bracket (see ). Depending on the angle, use the appropriate size and number of
spacers so that the bracket is perpendicular to the ground. Recommended: a stainless steel 3/4" long
screw, with a 1/4" socket button head , two jam nuts and three washers.
