A)
Select a dry location, out of direct sunlight with ambient temperature
between -20 and 45°C.
IMPORTANT
It is Important to not install the Eaton grid-tied PV Inverter under
direct sunlight. This is because the exposure of direct sunlight
my cause an internal heating and also result in a reduction of
output power, which is known as derating protection.
B)
Select a wall or solid vertical surface which is strong enough to support
the inverter.
WARNING
PV Inverter’s surface and housing can become hot during
operation. Ensure not to install PV Inverters in a location that
contains any flammable
material.
CAUTION
Ensure selected location has a sufficient space for air flow.
C) The Eaton grid-tied PV Inverter requires an adequate cooling space for
heat dispersal. Therefore, the PV Inverter must have sufficient clearance
for the air flow as illustrated below:
