4.3 Determining the Installation Position
4.3.1 Environment Requirements
Basic Requirements
The SUN2000 is protected to IP65 and can be installed indoors or outdoors.
Do not install the SUN2000 in a place where personnel are easy to come into contact
with its enclosure and heat sinks, because these parts are extremely hot during operation.
Do not install the SUN2000 in areas with flammable or explosive materials.
Do not install the SUN2000 at a place within children's reach.
Do not install the SUN2000 outdoors in salt areas because it will be corroded there and
may cause fire. A salt area refers to the region within 500 meters from the coast or prone
to sea breeze. The regions prone to sea breeze vary depending on weather conditions
(such as typhoons and monsoons) or terrains (such as dams and hills).
The SUN2000 must be installed in a well-ventilated environment to ensure good heat
dissipation.
Recommended: Install the SUN2000 in a sheltered place or a place with an awning.
Mounting Structure Requirements
The mounting structure where the SUN2000 is installed must be fireproof.
Do not install the SUN2000 on flammable building materials.
The SUN2000 is heavy. Ensure that the installation surface is solid enough to bear the
weight load.
In residential areas, do not install the SUN2000 on drywalls or walls made of similar
materials which have a weak sound insulation performance because the noise generated
by the SUN2000 is noticeable.
4.3.2 Space Requirements
Installation Angle Requirements
The SUN2000 can be wall-mounted or pole-mounted. The installation angle requirements are
as follows:
Install the SUN2000 vertically or at a maximum back tilt of 15 degrees to facilitate heat
dissipation.
Do not install the SUN2000 at forward tilted, excessive back tilted, side tilted,
horizontal, or upside down positions.
