DANGER!
Danger to life due to fire or explosion!
● Do not mount the inverter on flammable construction
materials.
● Do not install the inverter in areas where highly
flammable materials are stored.
● Do not install the inverter in areas with a risk of
explosion.
In order to ensure that the inverter operates properly, the installation environment and
requirements are as follows:
➢
The inverter is intended for outdoor use with IP 65 rating. The installation location
should be cool and in good ventilation. Do not expose the inverter in the direct sunlight,
otherwise, it may result in excessive temperature rise inside the inverter, downgrading
operation of protection circuit and even shutdown due to over-temperature fault.
➢
Rain and snow do impact on the service life of the inverter, do not install the inverter
in the rain and snow or do some appropriate shelter.
➢
The inverter adopts natural cooling, the ventilation and cooling are very important. Do
not install the inverter in a closed enclosure, otherwise the inverter should be too hot
to operate or even damaged.
➢
The inverter should be installed in the reinforced concrete wall or metal wall that can
bear the weight of the inverter. The inverter must be installed vertically. Ensure that
the installation place does not shaking.
➢
The inverter operation will generate some noise (< 40 dB), it should be installed away
from the residential areas. Ensure that the installation location is convenient for
viewing LED lights and LCD display screen. Sufficient clearances around the inverter
must be reserved for ventilation, cooling, installation, maintenance and safe access.
➢
Do not install the inverter 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).
CAUTION
Ambient temperature range shall be -25°C to +60°C. It will affect the
inverter output power when the temperature exceeds the limit.
Environmental relative humidity must be in the range of 0% ~ 100%.
