Step 2: Choosing a Location for the Unit
• Do not install the Freedom XC in compartments containing batteries
or flammable materials, or in locations that require ignition-protected
equipment. This includes any space containing gasoline-powered
machinery, fuel tanks, or joints, fittings, or other connections between
components of the fuel system. This equipment contains components
that tend to produce arcs or sparks.
• Do not cover or obstruct the ventilation openings. Do not install the
Freedom XC in a zero-clearance compartment. Overheating may
result.
The Freedom XC should only be installed in locations that meet the
following requirements:
❐
Dry. Do not allow water or other fluids to drip or splash on the
Freedom XC. Do not mount the Freedom XC in an area
subject to splashing water or bilge water.
❐
Cool. Normal air temperature should be between -4 °F and

104 °F (-20 °C and 40 °C)—the cooler the better.
❐
Ventilated. Allow at least 5 inches of clearance at the DC end
of the Freedom XC for air flow, 1 inch on each side, and 2
inches at the AC end. The more clearance for ventilation
around the unit, the better the performance. Do not allow the
ventilation openings on the ends of the unit to become
obstructed.
❐
Safe. Do not install the Freedom XC in the same compartment
as batteries or in any compartment capable of storing
flammable liquids like gasoline.
❐
Close to the battery compartment and the AC source and
load panels.
Avoid excessive cable lengths (which reduce input
and output power due to wire resistance). Use the
recommended cable lengths and sizes, especially between the
battery banks and the Freedom XC.
❐
Protected from battery acid and gases. Never allow battery
acid to drip on the Freedom XC or its wiring when reading
specific gravity or filling the battery. Also do not mount the unit
where it will be exposed to gases produced by the batteries.
These gases are very corrosive, and prolonged exposure will
damage the Freedom XC.
