CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES

CONSERVER CES INSTRUCTIONS

CE MANUEL CONTIENT DE IMPORTANTES POUR LA SÉRIE MS ONDULEUR/CHARGEUR QUI DOIVENT 

ETRE SUIVIES PENDANT L’INSTALLATION ET FONCTIONNEMENT DE CE PRODUIT. Avant d’utiliser 

la série MS, lire toutes les instructions etles mises en garde. Aussi, n’oubliez pas depasser en revue 

les différents manuels fournispour chaque composant du système. Lesinstructions d’installation 

sont pour une utilisationpar du personnel quali

fi

 é. Ne pas effectuer une installation ou d’entretien 

autres que ceux spéci

fi

 és dans ce manuel, sauf si vous êtes quali

fi

 é pour le faire. Une mauvaise 

installation ou d’entretien peut entraîner un risque de choc électrique, un incendie ou autre danger 

pour la sécurité.

Consignes de Sécurité

•  Tous les travaux électriques doivent être effectués en conformité avec les codes locaux et 

nationaux électriques.

•  Ce produit est conçu pour l’installation / du compartiment intérieur. Il ne doit pas être exposé 

à la pluie, la neige, l’humidité ou des liquides de tout type.

•  Utiliser des outils isolés pour réduire le risque de choc électrique ou courts-circuits accidentels.
•  Il n’y a pas réparable par l’utilisateur contenues dans ce produit.
•  Cet appareil est fourni avec une protection intégrale contre les surcharges.
•  Puissance en direct peuvent être présents à plus d’un point depuis un onduleur utilise à la fois 

DC (piles, PV, etc) et AC (utilitaire ou générateur) d’alimentation. Pour réduire le risque de 

choc électrique, assurez-vous que tout le câblage DC et AC est débranchée avant l’installation 

ou la maintenance sur le variateur. Mise hors tension de l’onduleur ne réduira pas ce risque, 

l’onduleur doit être totalement déconnectée de toutes les sources.

•  Utiliser des méthodes de câblage classe 1 pour les connexions de câblage sur le terrain aux 

bornes d’un circuit de Classe 2.

•  Coté ou étiquetés équipement doit être installé et utilisé conformément aux instructions 

fi

 gurant dans la liste ou l’étiquetage.

• Toujours 

véri

fi

 er le câblage avant de commencer l’onduleur.

• Utilisez 

des 

fi

 ls de cuivre seulement avec une cote de température minimale de 90°C (194°F).

•  AC câblage ne doit pas être inférieure à 10 AWG (5.3 mm²) de cuivre de calibre.
•  Les câbles de batterie ne doit pas moins de 107.2 mm² (#4/0 AWG) pour 24 volts systèmes 

et pas moins de 67.4 mm² (#2/0 AWG) pour 48 volts systèmes. Frisées et scellé cosses 

en cuivre anneau des bornes avec un trou de 5/16 doit être utilisé pour se connecter à des 

bornes de courant continu sur l’onduleur.

•  Couple toutes les connexions de câblage ca et les connexions de câbles à courant continu à 

des valeurs de couple nécessaires.

•  L’onduleur doit être monté correctement, voir la section 2.1.4 “Montage de l’onduleur” dans 

ce manuel.

•  Protection contre les surintensités pour l’alimentation de la batterie ne est pas fourni en tant 

que partie intégrante de cet onduleur. La protection contre les surintensités des câbles de 

batterie doit être fournie dans le cadre de l’installation du système. Reportez-vous à la section 

2.2 “Câblage DC” pour plus d’informations.

•  Protection contre les surintensités pour le câblage de sortie AC n’est pas fourni en tant que 

partie intégrante de cet onduleur. Protection contre les surintensités du câblage de sortie CA 

doit être fournie dans le cadre de l’installation du système. Reportez-vous à la Section 2.3 

“Câblage CA” dans le chapitre d’installation pour plus d’informations.

•  Le conducteur de sortie CA conducteurs neutre et continue négative ne sont pas connectés 

(servitude) au châssis inverseur. La fois l’entrée et des conducteurs de sortie sont isolés de 

l’enceinte et l’autre. La terre du système, si nécessaire, est de la responsabilité de l’installateur 

du système et doit se conformer à des codes locaux et nationaux et les normes électriques. 

Reportez-vous à la Section 2.4 Mise à la terre Onduleurs dans le chapitre d’installation pour 

plus d’informations.
