Maintenance

Section 4: Maintenance

Service

The  PWRcell  inverter  must  be  serviced  by  a  qualified

technician.  See  the  Generac  PWRcell  Inverter

Installation  Manual  for  information  and  instructions  on

service and field-replaceable parts.
One  of  the  biggest  reducers  of  system  performance  is

dirty  solar  panels.  Generac  Power  Systems,  Inc.

recommends  solar  panels  be  cleaned  regularly  by  a

qualified  person  to  ensure  optimum  performance  and

maximum  energy  savings.  Contact  the  nearest

Independent  Authorized  Service  Dealer  (IASD),  your

system installer, or Generac Customer Service at 1-888-

436-3722 

(1-888-GENERAC),

for assistance.

Annual Maintenance

On an annual basis:

Clean the exterior of the enclosure with a soft cloth.

Ensure surrounding area is free of leaves, pet hair

or other debris that could obstruct airflow in or out

of the unit.

Inspect  the  unit.  Look  for  conditions  that  could

hinder  performance  or  safety,  such  as  (but  not

limited to): 
– Blocked vents
– Dirty intake filter
– Loose/missing hardware
– Loose or broken electrical connections.

Inspecting Vents

See 

Figure 4-1

. Verify intake vent (A) and exhaust vent

(B) are clear at all times.

Cleaning Intake Filter

See 

Figure 4-1

. Clean intake filter (A) with a soft brush or

vacuum  cleaner.  If  air  filter  is  damaged  or  becomes

difficult  to  clean  contact  the  nearest  Independent

Authorized Service Dealer (IASD) or Generac Customer

Service  at  1-888-GENERAC  (1-888-436-3722)  or  visit

www.generac.com

 

for a replacement filter.

Recovery From an Error State

Error events will force the PWRcell inverter into an error

state  where  no  DC  power  is  exported,  though  voltage

may still be present on REbus from connected devices.

To  recover  a  device  from  an  error  state,  disable  then

enable  that  device.  See 

Enabling  and  Disabling

Devices

 for more information.
