conditions (protection rating, temperature, humidity, altitude, etc.).
• The installation location shall be easily accessible.
• Installation of the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight is NOT
acceptable. (Add awning in case of direct sunlight installation).
• Final installation of the device must not compromise access to any
disconnection devices that may be located externally.
• Do not install in small closed rooms where air cannot circulate freely.
• Always ensure that the flow of air around the inverter is not blocked so as
to prevent overheating.
• Do not install in locations where flammable substances or gases may be
present (minimum distance 3 m).
• Do not install on wooden walls or other flammable supports.
• Install on a wall or strong structure suitable to bear the weight.
• Do not install in rooms where people live or where the prolonged
presence of people or animals is expected, because of the high noise that
the inverter produces during operation. The level of the sound emission
is heavily influenced by where the appliance is installed (for example: the
type of surface around the inverter, the general properties of the room,
etc.) and the quality of the electricity supply.
