Inverter Connectors

The following shows the inverter connectors, located at the bottom of the inverter:
The following describes each connector:

AC and DC Conduit Openings: For connection of the AC/DC Safety Switch.
CAUTION:
Do not remove the six screws on the DC conduit metal panel as it may harm the inverter sealing
and void the warranty.
Ces vis ne doivent pas être retirées. Les enlever est susceptible d'endommager l'étanchéité de
l'onduleur et annuler la validité de la garantie.

ON/OFF Switch: Turning this switch ON starts the operation of the power optimizers, enables power
production and allows the inverter to begin exporting power to the utility grid. Turning it OFF
reduces the power optimizer voltage to a low safety voltage and inhibits exportation of power. When
this switch is OFF, the inverter control circuitry remains powered up.

LCD Light Button: Pressing this button lights up the LCD for 30 seconds. In addition, you can press
this button to access configuration menu options, as described on page 36.

Two communication glands, each 20mm in diameter, for connection of inverter communication
options. Each gland has three openings. Refer to Chapter 7: Setting Up Communication on page 45
for more information.

Mounting the Inverter

1
Determine the inverter mounting location, on a wall or pole, as follows:

To allow for heat dissipation, maintain the following clearance areas between the inverter and other
objects:

8" (20 cm) to the top of the inverter

At least 15" (38 cm) to the bottom of the inverter, for the AC/DC Safety Switch; if conduit entry
to the switch will be from the bottom, leave sufficient clearance for the conduits as well.

4" (10 cm) to the right and left of the inverter
