A salt area refers to the region within 500 meters from the coast or prone to sea breeze. The regions
prone to sea breeze vary with weather conditions (such as typhoons and monsoons) or terrains (such as
dams and hills). The areas that are more than 500 meters away from the coast are also likely to be salt
areas. For example, the area in northern Fukui ken within 10 km from the coast of the Japan Sea is a
salt-affected area. The whole Okinawa ken and other areas affected by sea breeze are also salt-affected
areas.
Installation Environment Requirements
Install the solar inverter in a well-ventilated environment for heat dissipation
When installed under direct sunlight, performance de-rate may be initiated due to
additional temperature rise.
To extend the service life of the solar inverter, install the solar inverter in a sheltered
place or install an awning over the solar inverter.
Mounting Structure Requirements
The mounting structure where the solar inverter is installed must be fire resistant.
Do not install the solar inverter on flammable building materials.
Ensure that the installation surface is solid enough to bear the weight load.
In residential areas, do not install the solar inverter on drywalls or walls made of similar
materials with a weak sound insulation performance because the noise generated by the
solar inverter may interfere with residents in the living area.
Installation Angle Requirements
The solar inverter can be wall-mounted or pole-mounted. The installation angle requirements
are as follows:
Install the solar inverter vertically or at a maximum back tilt of 15 degrees to facilitate
heat dissipation.
Do not install the solar inverter at forward tilted, excessive back tilted, side tilted,
horizontal, or upside down positions.
