OSITIONING
The SunRise is designed as a freestanding weatherproof system (IP43).
It is rated for the following Environmental Condition –
Rated maximum ambient operating temperature
50degC for outdoor unconditioned without solar
effects. According to AS4777.2:2020.
This means the SunRise system shall be installed in a shaded
area. If necessary, a solar shade will need to be installed above
the system.
The SunRise system should be located at least 100mm off the
wall to allow for proper ventilation. It should be placed closer to
the solar panels and the MSB to minimise voltage drop/power
loss.
Without batteries the assembled SunRise enclosure weighs
126kg. It should be placed into position, secured to the ground
and wired to the solar panels and house switch board BEFORE
installing the batteries. Note that the inverter can be removed
to further reduce the weight to 99kg if required.
Allow space around the system (no doors or
windows) to comply with current installation
standards. (See image at right) if the system is within
300m of the wall.
Note: the material that the wall is made of
(flammability) can influence the allowed positioning,
however, if the SunRise system is installed 300mm off
the wall then the type of material is no longer
relevant. This is a specific advantage of the SunRise
system over some competitor’s systems.
The SunRise has four holes in the base to allow for
securing. This can be done with dynabolts or material
appropriate screws.

LEARANCE FOR VENTILATION
Cooling air flow passes up through vents in the base of the SunRise system and then out through
fans at the rear. The fans are controlled by an adjustable temperature switch set to 35⁰C in the
factory. Do not block any vents or airflow access to the base as otherwise the system will overheat
and shutdown. (Once the system cools down again it should restart automatically).
Note: SunRise can be installed indoors. however, proper additional ventilation must be installed
according to AS
/NZS 5139.
Note: Minimum distance between the wall and the back of the SunRise is 100mm
