Transport and handling

Transport of the equipment, especially by road, must be carried out with by suitable ways and means for protecting the compo

-

nents from violent shocks, humidity, vibration, etc.

Lifting

The means used for lifting must be suitable to bear the weight of the equipment.

Unpacking and checking

The components of the packaging must be disposed on in accordance with the regulations in force in the country of installation.

When you open the package, check that the equipment is undamaged and make sure all the components are present. If you find 

any defects or damage, stop unpacking and consult the carrier, and also promptly inform the Service ABB.

Environmental checks

 -Consult the technical data to check the environmental parameters to be observed 

 -Installation of the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight must be avoided as it may cause:

1.  power limitation phenomena in the inverter (with a resulting decreased energy production by the system)

2.  premature wear of the electrical/electromechanical components

3.  premature wear of the mechanical components (gaskets) and of the user interface (display)

 -Do not install in small closed rooms where air cannot circulate freely

 -

To avoid overheating, always make sure the flow of air around the inverter is not blocked

 -

Do not install in places where gases or flammable substances may be present

 -Do not install in rooms where people live or where the prolonged presence of people or animals is expected, becau-

se of the noise (about 50dB(A) at 1 m) that the inverter makes during operation

Installations above 2000 metres

On account of the rarefaction of the air (at high altitudes), particular conditions may occur:

 -

Less efficient cooling and therefore a greater likelihood of the device going into derating because of high internal 

temperatures

 -Reduction in the dielectric resistance of the air that, in the presence of high operating voltages (DC input), can 

create electric arcs (discharges) that can reach the point of damaging the inverter

All installations at altitudes of over 2000 metres must be assessed case by case with the ABB Service department.

Installation position

 -

Install on a wall or strong structure capable of bearing the weight of the equipment

 -Install in safe, easy to reach places

 -If possible, install at eye-level so that the display and status LEDs can be seen easily 

 -

Install at a height that considers the heaviness of the equipment

 -Install vertically with a maximum inclination of +/- 5°

 -Choose a place with enough space around the unit to permit easy installation and removal of 

the object from the mounting surfaces; comply with the indicated minimum distances

 -For a multiple installation, position the inverters side by side; if the space available does not 

allow this arrangement, position the inverters in a staggered arrangement as shown in the 

figure so that heat dissipation is not affected by other inverters

Final installation of the inverter must not compromise access to any disconnection 

devices that may be located externally.

Please refer to the warranty terms and conditions available on the website and evaluate 

any possible exclusion due to improper installation.

Wall/Pole mounting

During installation, do not place the inverter with its front facing towards the ground.

-

 Position the bracket 

01

 so that it is perfectly level on the wall and use it 

as a boring template.

Make the 2 holes required, using a drill with a 10 mm diameter bit. The 

depth of the holes should be about 70 mm. On the bracket 

01

 there are 

5 holes with which to secure it: just 2 are enough to support the inverter if 

installed on stable, robust supports.

Secure the bracket to the wall 

B

 or to the pole 

A

 with the no. 2 10 mm 

wall plugs supplied with it (Step 1). Check the stability of the bracket and 

if necessary use all the fixing points (5) there are on the bracket

Hook the inverter to the bracket spring corresponding with the insertion 

point in the bracket on the back of the inverter (Step 2).

Proceed to anchor the inverter to the bracket 

01

 by tightening the 

locking screw 

02

 located on the lower side (Step 3).

Unscrew the 4 screws and open the front cover 

05

 in order to make all 

the necessary connections.

Once the connections have been made, close the cover by tightening 

the 4 screws on the front to a minimum tightening torque of 1.5 Nm.

For further information regarding connections between the rectifier and the wind turbine, as well as installation of the protection devices 

required in the plant, please see the manual for the installer for the 7200-WIND-INTERFACE-EU rectifier

Warning! Rotation of the wind turbine generates hazardous voltages in the cables coming from the wind generator. Before connecting up 

the cables to the inverter DC inputs you MUST put the wind turbine into a safe state (mechanically blocked) and then disconnect the DC 

line by opening any external disconnect switches

 -Remove the protective plug from the hole used for the DC cables 

17

.

 -Insert an M32 cable gland (or compatible – hole diameter 33.8 mm) in the hole to be used for the DC input cables 

17

.

Warning! To ensure environmental protection IP65 it is necessary to fix the cable gland to the inverter 

chassis with the minimum tightening torque specified in the cable gland manufacturer’s datasheet.

 -Strip 10 mm of sheathing from the DC input connection cables

 -Plug the DC input cables into the inverter, passing it through the previously installed cable gland

 -

Connect the positive cable from the positive terminal of the rectifier to cable connector “+IN” 

09

 -

Connect the negative cable from the negative terminal of the rectifier to cable connector “-IN” 

09

Warning! The DC cables must be tightened on the terminal block with a minimum torque of 1.5 Nm

 -Once the connection to the input terminal block

 

09

 has been made, firmly screw the cable gland and check the tightness.
