Mounting the Inverter
NOTE
Make sure the mounting surface or structure can support the weight of the inverter.
CAUTION!
SolarEdge inverters can be installed at a minimum distance of 50 m/ 164 ft from the shoreline of an
ocean or other saline environment, as long as there are no direct salt water splashes on the inverter.
AVERTISSEMENT!
Les onduleurs SolarEdge peuvent être installés à une distance minimum de 50m de la ligne d'eau de
l'océan ou autre environnement salin, tant qu'il n'y a pas d'éclaboussements d'eau salée directs sur
l'onduleur.
1. Determine the inverter mounting location, on a wall, stud framing or pole. I t is recommended to
mount the inverter in a location protected from direct sunlight.
2. 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) from the top of the inverter.
o
o At least 4" (10 cm) from the bottom of the inverter; if conduit entry to the Safety Switch will
be from the bottom, leave sufficient clearance for the conduits as well.
4" (10 cm) from the right and left of the inverter.
o
If installing multiple inverters:
l
When installing inverters one above of the other, leave at least 12" (30 cm) between inverters.
o
3. The inverter brackets are attached to the designated heatsink fins ready for wall mounting. For
installation on a pole, remove the two brackets and attach them to the central heatsink fin one
below the other (do not over tighten so the bracket height can be adjusted).
4. Position the wall mounting brackets against the wall/ pole and mark the drilling hole locations (refer
to Mechanical Specifications on page 70 for inverter and mounting bracket dimensions).
5. Drill the holes and mount the brackets. Verify that the brackets are firmly attached to the mounting
surface.
