►
Ensure adequate air circulation. Hot air must be able
to dissipate upward. Keep suficient space around
each inverter.
►
Do not install inverters directly above one another.
Otherwise, the upper inverter is warmed up by the
lower one.
►
Consider the
operating temperature range
(see
“Technical data”, p. 22).
When the operating temperature range is exceeded,
the solar inverter reduces the amount of power gener-
ated.

►
Mount the inverter so that the LEDs and display can be eas-
ily seen and that the buttons can be operated. Make sure the
reading angle and installation height are suficient.
►
Always use the mounting plate
supplied with the inverter.
►
Check that the wall is capable of
bearing the heavy weight of the
inverter.
►
Use dowels and screws that are
suitable for the wall material and
the heavy weight.
►
Mount the inverter on a vibration-
free wall to avoid disruptive
vibrations.
► Mount the inverter on a ireproof
wall.
► Mount the inverter on a lat wall
only. Brick walls can cause prob-
lems if they are too bumpy.
►
Possible noise emissions can be
disruptive when the inverter is
used in living areas or in buildings
with animals. Therefore, choose
your installation location carefully.
Mounting orientation
►
Mount the solar inverter vertically.
