WARNING
Danger to life due to burns caused by electric arcs through short-circuit
currents
Short-circuit currents in the battery can cause heat build-up and electric arcs. Heat build-up and
electric arcs may result in lethal injuries due to burns.
• Disconnect the battery from all voltages sources prior to performing any work on the
battery.
• Observe all safety information of the battery manufacturer.
WARNING
Danger to life due to electric shock from destruction of the measuring device
due to overvoltage
Overvoltage can damage a measuring device and result in voltage being present in the
enclosure of the measuring device. Touching the live enclosure of the measuring device results in
death or lethal injuries due to electric shock.
• Only use measuring devices with a DC input voltage range of 600 V or higher.
CAUTION
Risk of burns from hot surfaces
The surface of the inverter can get very hot. Touching the surface can result in burns.
• Mount the inverter in such a way that it cannot be touched inadvertently.
• Do not touch hot surfaces.
• Wait 30 minutes for the surface to cool sufficiently.
