When selecting a location for the inverter, consider the following:
● The temperature of the inverter heat-sink can reach 167
°
F.
The ambient temperature and relative humidity of the installation environment should
meet the following requirements:
● If multiple inverters are installed on site, a minimum clearance of 12 inches should be kept
between each inverter and all other mounted equipment. The bottom of the inverter should be
at least 20 inches above of the ground or floor (see Figure 4.5 on page 12).
● The LED status indicator lights located on the inverter's front panel should not be blocked
● Adequate ventilation must be present if the inverter is to be installed in a confined space.
WARNING:
Risk of fire
Despite careful construction, electrical devices can cause fires.
Do not install the inverter in areas containing highly flammable materials or
gases. Keep the inverter out of reach of children if children may be present.
Do not install the inverter in potentially explosive environments.
CAUTION: Hot Surface
Made of non-inflammable materials
