INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Installing the WF-9800 Series Converter-Charger
Mounting the Enclosure
The WF-9800 Series Converter-Charger enclosure should be mounted in an accessible area such
as a wall or in the side of a cabinet. Select a mounting location near the shore power and battery
(batteries), in an area where the owner is unlikely to store items as this could reduce clearance
requirements, obstruct ventilation openings and affect the performance of the converter (Figure
5).
The location should be selected to prevent excessive heat, water, moisture, dust and dirt entering
the unit installed. As a rule, allow two cubic feet of clear airspace and or any additional venting
as necessary to prevent the unit from overheating. The front of the enclosure should not be
obstructed to allow free air flow for the cooling fan (Figure 5).
An 8AWG copper conductor shall be used to bond the WF-9800 Series Converter-Charger to
the vehicle frame.
