5 Installation Design
5.1
Selecting Installation Location
5.1.1
Basic Requirements
With the degree of protection IP65, the inverter can be installed outdoors, but cannot be
stored in a place with high humidity for long time
.
Considering noise generated during running, It is recommended to install the inverter in
places far away from residential areas.
The installation location should be free of corrosive or inflammable gas.
5.1.2
Requirements for Installation Environment
The operating temperature is recommended to be ranged between -35
℃
and
+
50
℃
to ensure the optimum performance.
It recommended to take shading measures when the inverter is installed outdoors, so
as to avoid over temperature caused by direct exposure to sunlight and reduce impact
on power generation.
5.1.3
Requirements for Foundation and Clearance
The installation foundation should be suitable for the weight of the inverter. Specifically,
refer to "5.2.3 Foundation Requirements"
The clearances around the inverter should be suitable enough for heat dissipation
,
further maintenance
,
or other operations. Specifically, refer to "5.2.4 Clearance
Requirements"
The inverter should be installed in a place convenient for operations on the LCD
touchscreen.
5.2
Installation Environment Design
The inverter can be installed outdoors when the following requirements are met.
5.2.1
Irradiation Requirements
The inverter can keep steady operation when the ambient temperature is between
–35
°
C
and
50
°
C. When the temperature is higher than 50
°
C, the inverter can still operate but
will lower output power to protect the device.
The irradiation intensity should be
≤
1100W/m
2
. It is recommended to install the inverter in
places with shadings or take shading measures.
5.2.2
Air Requirement
The inverter should be installed in an environment where fresh air volume meets the
requirement described in charter 4.1.3 Ventilation Design, and the fresh air needs to
