Installing the Mounting Bracket
The mounting bracket for the GT Inverter allows the unit to be easily mounted and
removed for servicing. It has one hook that matches a corresponding hook on the
back side of the inverter.
Clearance Requirements
For optimal and safe operation, make sure there is adequate clearance around the
inverter. If clearances are less than these recommendations are used, additional
power reduction may occur at high ambient temperatures.

In front
Sufficient room to allow for easy access to read the display and to prevent
accidental contact with hot surface.
On sides
Units can be mounted side by side with no clearance between them, but
15 cm of clearance around the outermost two units is recommended. In hot
climates, some clearance between units may be needed to prevent thermal
derating.
