1.4. Compliance with standards and regulations
These units are adapted to the standards and regulations in the United States and Canada.
1.4.1. ETL Marking
The Marking of a NRTL is essential for marketing any product in the USA and Canada, without prejudice to all appli-
cable standards and regulations. The Ingecon®Sun Lite U units bear the ETL Marking and, therefore, are compliant
with this requirement.
2. System description
2.1. Location
This section provides guidelines for selecting and correctly adapting the equipment to a suitable site.
2.1.1. Site
Locate the units in a place which is easily accessible for installation and maintenance work, with room
to operate the keyboard and to read the front LED indicators.
Do not leave any object on the equipment.
CAUTION
The radiator can reach temperatures of 185 ºF (85 ºC). Do not leave any material susceptible to the
high temperatures of the surrounding air in the proximity of the inverter.
Avoid corrosive environments.
2.1.2. NEMA Rating
The Ingecon®Sun Lite U inverters have an NEMA rating for outdoor elements, permitting outdoor installation.
NEMA 3R means that the equipment is fully dust-tight and is also protected against water jets in any
direction, as defined for this protection rating in U standards.
Despite this, excessive humidity may cause a safety shutdown for equipment auto-protection: We would therefore
recommend:
Locating the equipment in a place which is sheltered from the rain.
AAY2000IKI02
Ingeteam Inc

13

2.1.3. Ambient temperature
The Ingecon®Sun Lite U inverters are designed to operate between -4 ºF (-20 ºC) and 158 ºF (70 ºC).
To operate at nominal power, the maximum ambient temperature must not be above 113 ºF (45 ºC).
2.1.4. Atmospheric conditions
The surrounding air must be clean and the relative humidity must not exceed 50% at more than 104 ºF (40 ºC).
Higher percentages of relative humidity, up to 95%, are tolerable at temperatures below 86 ºF (30 ºC).
It should be taken into account that, occasionally, moderate condensation may occur as a result of temperature varia-
tions. For this reason, in addition to the inverter’s own protection system, the equipment should also be monitored
when operating at sites whose atmospheric conditions may be outside of those described above.
2.1.5. Contamination rating
The inverters have been designed for a grade 3 contamination rating.
2.1.6. Noise contamination
When operating, the inverters emit a slight buzzing sound.
Do not locate the inverters in an occupied room or on lightweight supports which could amplify this noise. The
mounting surface must be firm and adequate for the weight of the equipment.
2.1.7. Ventilation
There must be a 11.81 inches (30 cm) clearance over the inverters and 7.87 inches (20 cm) at the sides and base.
This is to ensure that the inverter cooling system operates correctly.
14
Ingeteam Inc
Installation manual
AAY2000IKI02

Ingecon®Sun Lite U are cooled by forced air convection.
In all cases, incoming and outgoing air should be allowed to circulate freely through the grids or openings at the base,
top and sides.
2.1.8. Mounting surface
In order to ensure correct heat evacuation and airtightness, the inverter must be mounted on a perfectly vertical wall
or, failing this, with a maximum angle of inclination of 176 ºF (80º) or -112 ºF (-80º).
AAY2000IKI02
Ingeteam Inc
Installation manual
15

Never position the inverter horizontally. The air circu-
lation channels through the radiator must be vertical.
The inverter should be mounted on a solid wall. Bear
in mind that holes need to be drilled into the wall,
inserting plugs and lag screws capable of withstanding
the inverter weight.
For the TL models, the space between the drill holes
shall be as follows:
16
Ingeteam Inc
Installation manual
AAY2000IKI02

For transformer based models, the transformer is first
secured to the wall and then the inverter is attached
to the transformer.
First, the three holes should be drilled in the top.
The figure provides the hole dimensions. The lower
hole should be made when the unit is hung on the
wall, as explained in section “5.2. Wall mounting
the equipment”. The figure shows the approximate
distances between the horizontal line comprising the
three top holes and the position of the lower hole. The
approximate vertical distance to the upper edge of the
inverter which will subsequently be attached to the
transformer secured to the wall.
2.2. Environmental characteristics
The environmental operating conditions are:
• Minimum temperature: -4 ºF (-20 ºC).
• Minimum temperature of the surrounding air: -4 ºF (-20 ºC).
• Maximum temperature of the surrounding air: 158 ºF (70 ºC).
• Maximum relative humidity without condensation at 95 %.

Damage during transport
Should the inverter sustain damage during transport:
1. Do not install it.
2. Immediately notify your distributor of this situation within a 5 day period from the reception date.
Should it be finally necessary to return the equipment to the manufacturer, the original packing should be used.
Packaging disposal
All the packaging can be given to an authorised non hazardous waste manager.
In any case, each part of the packaging should be disposed of as follows:
• Plastic (polystyrene, bag and bubble wrap): the appropriate container.
• Cardboard: the appropriate container.
3.2. Handling
It is exceedingly important to correctly handle the inverters at all times, in order to ensure that:
• The packaging remains intact and the inverters are maintained in optimum condition right from shipment
until unpacking.
• The inverters are not knocked and/or dropped, which could affect their mechanical characteristics, such as
poor door closure, loss of NEMA rating etc.
• Every effort is made to avoid vibrations, which could lead to subsequent malfunctioning.
Should any anomaly be observed, Ingeteam Inc must be contacted immediately.
3.3. Transport
Correct inverter transport and storage are the first steps required for correct use and operation. Considering the indi-
cations given in section “3.2. Handling”, and as a preventive measure, Ingeteam Inc would recommend working with
haulers specializing in the transport of special and/or fragile equipment. All equipment packed in accordance with
section “3.2. Handling” must be handled with tools that will not damage the packaging.
During transport and storage the equipment should be protected from mechanical impacts, vibrations, water projec-
tions (rain) and any other product or situation which could damage or alter its performance.
When moving the equipment over a distance of more than 16.4 ft (5 m), a pallet jack or fork-lift truck should be used,
whenever possible.
Moving the equipment with a pallet jack
At least the following points should be observed:
• Ensure that the packed equipment is centred over the forks.
• Try to ensure that the equipment is positioned as close as possible to the connection between the fork and
handle.
• In any event, observe the instructions provided in the pallet jack manual.
