Mounting The Inverter - SolarEdge StorEdge SE7600A-USS Installation Manual

Mounting the Inverter

Mounting the Inverter
NOTE
Make sure the mounting surface or structure can support the weight of the inverter , 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) to the top o f the inverter.
o
At least 8" (20 cm) to the bottom of the StorEdge Connection Unit; if conduit entry to the
o
StorEdge Connection Unit will be from the bottom, leave sufficient clearance for the conduits as
well.
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 a StorEdge Connection Unit.
When installing inverters side by side, leave 20 cm / 8" 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.
4. Hang the inverter on the bracket (see F igure 12): Lift the inverter from the sides, or hold it at the top
and bottom of the inverter to lift the unit into place. Do not lift holding the Safety SwitchStorEdge
Connection Unit as it may be damaged.
