CAUTION 

Risk of electric shock from energy stored in the inverter's capacitors. 
Do not remove cover until five (5) minutes after disconnecting all sources 
of supply have passed, and this can only be done by a service technician. 
The warranty may be voided if any unauthorized removal of cover occurs.

CAUTION

The inverter's surface temperature can reach up to 75

C (167

F). To avoid 

risk of burns, do not touch the surface when the inverter is operating. 
Inverter must be installed out of the reach of children.

WARNING

 

The inverter can only accept a PV array as a DC input. Using any other 

type of DC source could damage the inverter.

The inverter has been constructed according to applicable safety and technical guidelines. 

Use the inverter in installations that meet the following requirements ONLY:

       1).  The inverter must be permanently installed.

       2).  The electrical installation must meet all the applicable regulations and standards.

       3).  The inverter must be installed according to the instructions stated in this manual.

       4).  The system design must meet inverter specifications.

To start-up the inverter, the Grid Supply Main Switch (AC) must be turned on, BEFORE the DC 

Switch is turned on. To stop the inverter, the Grid Supply Main Switch (AC) must be turned off 

before the DC Switch is turned off.

2.3 Notice for use

2. Safety Instructions

3.1 Environmental considerations

3.1.1 Select a location for the inverter

When selecting a location for the inverter, consider the following:

Figure 3.1 Distances required between inverters

NOTE

 

Nothing should be stored on or placed against the inverter.

3. Installation

2.4 Protection Circuitry and Controls

      

  

 WARNING:

 Risk of fire

 

Despite careful construction, electrical devices can cause fires.

   Do not install the inverter in areas containing highly flammable materials or 

   gases.

   Do not install the inverter in potentially explosive atmospheres.

●  The temperature of the inverter heat-sink can reach 167

°

(75°C)

.

●  The inverter is designed to work in an ambient temperature range between -13

°

F to 140

°

(-25 - 60°C)

.

●  If multiple inverters are installed on site, a minimum clearance of 500mm should be kept between 

    each inverter and all other mounted equipment. The bottom of the inverter should be at least 500mm 

    above of the ground or floor (see Figure 3.1).

●  The LED status indicator lights and the LCD located on the inverter's front panel should not be 

     blocked.

●  Adequate ventilation must be present if the inverter is to be installed in a confined space.

To meet relevant codes and standards, the Canadian Solar three phase inverter line is 

equipped with protective circuitry and controls.

Anti-Islanding Protection: 

       Islanding is a condition where the inverter continues to produce power even when the grid 

       is not present.  Circuitry, along with firmware, has been designed to determine if the grid is 

       present by adjusting the output frequency of the inverter.  In the case of a 60Hz resonant 

       system where the inverter is partially isolated from the grid, the inverter programming can 

       detect if there is a resonant condition or if the grid is actually present.  It can also 

       differentiate between inverters operating in parallel and the grid.
