Do not install this inverter in any area that contains extremely
fl ammable liquids like gasoline or propane, or in locations that require
ignition-protected devices.
C
lose to the battery bank - As with any inverter, it should be located
as close to the batteries as possible. Long DC wires tend to lose
ef fi ciency and reduce the overall performance of an inverter. However,
the unit should not be installed in the same compartment as the
batteries or mounted where it will be exposed to gases produced by
the batteries. These gases are corrosive and will damage the inverter;
also, if these gases are not ventilated and if allowed to collect, they
could ignite and cause an explosion.
Accessible - Do not block access to the inverter’s remote control
and accessory ports. Also allow enough room to access the AC and
DC wiring connections, as they will need to be checked and tightened
periodically. See Figure 8 for the MM Series’ inverter dimensions.
Mounting Orientation - To meet regulatory requirements, the MM
Series inverter can only be mounted on a horizontal surface (shelf or
table) or a vertical surface (wall or bulkhead) either right-side up or
upside-down, as shown in Figure 7. The inverter must be mounted on a
“non-combustible” surface, and this surface and the mounting hardware
must be capable of supporting at least twice the weight of the inverter.
After determining your mounting position, use the base of the inverter’s
chassis as a template to mark your mounting screw locations. Remove
the inverter and drill pilot holes into the mounting surface.
If this unit is used in a mobile application, you may want to place
fl exible washers or bushings between the mounting surface and the
inverter’s mounting fl anges to reduce vibration.
After the inverter has been properly mounted, proceed to the DC Wir-
ing section.
