Replacement Procedures
Solar Converter Module Replacement
Solar converter modules can be inserted or removed with power applied (hot swappable).
NOTE!
Each solar converter module locks into a module mounting shelf by means of a latch located on
the bottom of the module. The latch and solar converter module handle are interactive. Pushing the
handle up into the module’s front panel causes the latch to extend to the locking position; pulling the
handle down out from the module’s front panel causes the latch to retract. See
DANGER!
Take care when removing a solar converter module that was in operation, as solar converter
module surfaces could be very hot.
WARNING!
To prevent damage to the latching mechanism, ensure the handle is in the open position
when installing or removing a solar converter module. NEVER hold the handle in the closed position
when installing a solar converter module into a shelf.

Certain functions (i.e. solar converter addressing) may require adjustment when adding or replacing a
solar converter module. Refer to the Power System documentation for instructions.
9.
After the solar converter modules are physically installed in the mounting shelf(s), they are ready for
operation immediately after power is supplied to them. Verify that the solar converters are operating
normally.
