4. Installation
4.1 Select a Location for the Inverter
Figure 4.1 Recommended Installation locations
To select a location for the inverter, the following criteria should be considered:
Exposure to direct sunlight may cause output power derating. It is recommended to
avoid installing the inverter in direct sunlight.
It is recommended that the inverter is installed in a cooler ambient which doesn't
exceed 104℉/40℃.
4. Installation
To avoid overheating, always make sure the flow of air around the inverter is not
blocked. A minimum clearance of 300mm should be kept between inverters or
objects and 500mm clearance between the bottom of the machine and the ground.
Visibility of the LEDs and LCD should be considered.
Adequate ventilation must be provided.
NOTE:
Nothing should be stored on or placed against the inverter.
Install vertically with a maximum incline of +/- 5 degrees, exceeding this may cause
output power derating.

4.2 Mounting the Inverter
The steps to mount the inverter are listed below:
1. Select the mounting height of the bracket and mark the mounting holes.
For brick walls, the position of the holes should be suitable for the expansion bolts.

CAUTION:
If DC inputs are accidently reversely connected or inverter is faulty or not
working properly, it is NOT allowed to turn off the DC switch. Otherwise it
may cause DC arc and damage the inverter or even lead to a fire disaster.
The correct actions are:
*Use a clip-on ammeter to measure the DC string current.
*If it is above 0.5A, please wait for the solar irradiance reduces until the
current decreases to below 0.5A.
*Only after the current is below 0.5A, you are allowed to turn off the DC
switches and disconnect the PV strings.
* In order to completely eliminate the possibility of failure, please disconnect
the PV strings after turning off the DC switch to aviod secondary failures due
to continuous PV energy on the next day.
Please note that any damages due to wrong operations are not covered in
the device warranty.
