Transport and handling
Transport of the equipment, especially by road, must be carried out with by suitable ways and means for protecting the
components from violent shocks, humidity, vibration, etc.
Lifting
The means used for lifting must be suitable to bear the weight of the equipment.
Unpacking and checking
The components of the packaging must be disposed on in accordance with the regulations in force in the country of
installation.
When you open the package, check that the equipment is undamaged and make sure all the components are present.
If you ind any defects or damage, stop unpacking and consult the carrier, and also promptly inform the Service ABB.

Environmental checks
- Consult the technical data to check the environmental parameters to be observed
- Installation of the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight must be avoided as it may cause:
1. power limitation phenomena in the inverter (with a resulting decreased energy production by the system)
2. premature wear of the electrical/electromechanical components
3. premature wear of the mechanical components (gaskets) and of the user interface (display)
- Do not install in small closed rooms where air cannot circulate freely
-
To avoid overheating, always make sure the low of air around the inverter is not blocked
-
Do not install in places where gases or lammable substances may be present
- Do not install in rooms where people live or where the prolonged presence of people or animals is expected,
because of the noise (about 50dB(A) at 1 m) that the inverter makes during operation
Installations above 2000 metres
On account of the rarefaction of the air (at high altitudes), particular conditions may occur:
-
Less eficient cooling and therefore a greater likelihood of the device going into derating because of high internal
temperatures
- Reduction in the dielectric resistance of the air that, in the presence of high operating voltages (DC input), can
create electric arcs (discharges) that can reach the point of damaging the inverter
All installations at altitudes of over 2000 metres must be assessed case by case with the ABB Service
department.
Installation position
-
Install on a wall or strong structure capable of bearing the weight of the equipment
- Install in safe, easy to reach places
- If possible, install at eye-level so that the display and status LEDs can be seen easily
-
Install at a height that considers the heaviness of the equipment
- Install vertically with a maximum inclination of +/- 5°
- Choose a place with enough space around the unit to permit easy installation and removal of
the object from the mounting surfaces; comply with the indicated minimum distances
- For a multiple installation, position the inverters side by side; if the space available does not
allow this arrangement, position the inverters in a staggered arrangement as shown in the
igure so that heat dissipation is not affected by other inverters
Final installation of the inverter must not compromise access to any disconnection
devices that may be located externally.
Please refer to the warranty terms and conditions available on the website and evaluate
any possible exclusion due to improper installation.

Wall/Pole mounting
During installation, do not place the inverter with its front facing towards the ground.
-
Position the bracket
01
so that it is perfectly level on the wall and use it as a boring template.
-
Make the 2 holes required, using a drill with a 10 mm diameter bit. The depth of the holes should be
about 70 mm. On the bracket
01
there are 5 holes with which to secure it: just 2 are enough to support the
inverter if installed on stable, robust supports.
-
Secure the bracket to the wall
B
or to the pole
A
with the no. 2x 10 mm wall plugs supplied with
it (Step 1). Check the stability of the bracket and if necessary use all the ixing points (5) there are on
the bracket
-
Hook the inverter to the bracket spring corresponding with the insertion point in the bracket on the
back of the inverter (Step 2).
-
Proceed to anchor the inverter to the bracket
01
by tightening the locking screw
02
located on the
lower side (Step 3).
-
Unscrew the 4 screws and open the front cover
05
in order to make all the necessary connections.
-
Once the connections have been made, close the cover by tightening the 4 screws on the front to a
minimum tightening torque of 1.5 Nm.

AC Switch
For further information regarding connections between the rectiier and the wind turbine, as well as installation of the protection devices
required in the plant, please see the manual for the installer for the 7200-WIND-INTERFACE-EU rectiier
Warning! Rotation of the wind turbine generates hazardous voltages in the cables coming from the wind generator. Before connecting up
the cables to the inverter DC inputs you MUST put the wind turbine into a safe state (mechanically blocked) and then disconnect the DC
line by opening any external disconnect switches
- Remove the protective plug from the hole used for the DC cables
17
.
- Insert an M32 cable gland (or compatible – hole diameter 33.8 mm) in the hole to be used for the DC input cables
17
.
Warning! To ensure environmental protection IP65 it is necessary to ix the cable gland to the inverter
chassis with the minimum tightening torque speciied in the cable gland manufacturer’s datasheet.
- Strip 10 mm of sheathing from the DC input connection cables
- Plug the DC input cables into the inverter, passing it through the previously installed cable gland
-
Connect the positive cable from the positive terminal of the rectiier to cable connector “+IN”
09
-
Connect the negative cable from the negative terminal of the rectiier to cable connector “-IN”
09
Warning! The DC cables must be tightened on the terminal block with a minimum torque of 1.5 Nm
- Once the connection to the input terminal block
09
has been made, irmly screw the cable gland and check the tightness.
