4 Identify locations for System components
a Component Shading and Working Radius
It is critically important to shade all of the components (except the Solar Arrays) as much as
possible to reduce heat buildup inside the components (solar loading)
Higher temperatures will
result in derating, or diminished capacity and efficiency, of the components.
Cable lengths determine the maximum working radius of the System; the Solar Arrays could be up to
~50’ from the PRO-Verter/trailer.
ALL Solar Stik equipment is designed for operation in adverse conditions; however, certain rules
apply:
1. If operating in wet environments, use common-sense placement to avoid water intrusion by either
flooding or precipitation.
2. If operating in dusty environments, ensure good airflow by keeping air filters clean and placing
unit in a location that minimizes exposure to particulates. Clogged air filters reduce airflow, which
can result in tripped breakers.
Direct ground placement of any power management or energy storage component is generally not
recommended, but possible if no other option is available. If it is necessary, preventive measures for
water and dust should be taken. Consult the
of this manual for additional details.
b Minimize Potential for Water and Dust Intrusion
