The SOLECTRIA XGI 1000 is equipped with a NEMA Type 4X rated, Polyester Powder-Coated Aluminum enclosure suitable
for outdoor installation in many different climates. Select the mounting location appropriately taking into consideration,
snow, wind, rain, direct sun, pests, vegetation growth, and any other local environmental conditions. To increase the
products life span, it’s recommended that the inverter be installed out of direct sunlight; for example, under a shade
structure, on a north facing building, or on north facing racking. Never install inverters in areas that are prone to flooding,
standing water, prolonged snow coverage, or near explosive or flammable materials.
WARNING

in close proximity to flammable materials.

Installation Must Maintain NEMA Type 4X Rating: It is the responsibility of the installer to maintain the NEMA Type 4X
rating of the enclosure. Failure to maintain the NEMA Type 4X rating will void the warranty.
NOTICE !
Improper Installation Will Void Warranty: Never install the inverter in areas that are prone to flooding, standing water,
or prolonged snow coverage. It is important to ensure the cooling fans and exhaust remain clear from obstructions at
all times.
