Operator and Maintenance Manual for the PRO-Verter S 3000
PRELIMINARY
Environmental and Handling Precautions
All Solar Stik components are ruggedized, yet there are a few things the operator can do to prevent
failures and prolong the operational life of the Solar Stik System.
Wind
It is imperative to properly secure PV panels
(if used) to the ground using sandbags so
they do not become dangerous projectiles in
high winds.
Water
If outdoor operation is necessary, the lid
should be closed and latched. During
operation, the case should be placed upright,
especially during inclement weather. The
lid should be open only to access operator
controls and closed at all other times.
Impact
The PRO-Verter should not be dropped onto
hard surfaces at a height greater than one
foot when transporting or during operation.
Dust/Foreign Object Intrusion
Air intake filters should be cleaned once per
month, or more frequently when conditions
warrant. As a general rule, minimize exposure
to high levels of particulates and foreign
object debris by exercising common-sense
placement and protection during both
operation
and
storage.
Heat
Heat and solar loading reduces efficiency and
life expectancy. Shade components (except
PV panels) to prevent the negative effects of
heat.
