3.2 Placement of the Sunny Island
The Sunny Island is a highly integrated, electronic device which is therefore sensitive to
moisture within the enclosure.
The Sunny Island is not suitable for outdoor installation.
For overall planning of your plant it is important to select a favorable location for the in-
verter/s. The following criteria are meant to help you decide where to position the Sunny
Island:
Criteria for placement:
•
Installation only possible indoors due to protection degree IP20.
•
Do not expose the inverter to direct or indirect humidity.
•
Keep cables leading to the battery storage as short as possible (DC cabling).
•
Avoid installing in the living area as slight noise emission is possible.
•
Avoid mounting on resonant parts and easily combustible materials (e. g. thin
wooden panels, plaster panels, etc.)
•
Provide accessibility for installation and later service.
•
Installation at level height makes it possible to easily view the display and press
the keys.
