2.2 Important safety information
Danger to life due to electric shock when live components or
cables are touched
• All work on the inverter must only be carried out by qualified
personnel who have read and fully understood all safety
information contained in this manual.
• Do not open the inverter.
• Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the inverter.
Danger to life due to high voltages of the PV array
When exposed to sunlight, the PV array generates dangerous
DC voltage which is present in the DC conductors and the live
components of the inverter. Touching the DC conductors or
the live components can lead to lethal electric shocks. If you
disconnect the DC connectors from the inverter under load,
an electric arc may occur leading to electric shock and burns.
• Do not touch non-insulated cable ends.
• Do not touch the DC conductors.
• Do not touch any live components of the inverter.
• Have the inverter mounted, installed and commissioned only
by qualified persons with the appropriate skills.
•If an error occurs, have it rectified by qualified persons only.
•Prior to performing any work on the inverter, disconnect it
from all voltage sources as described in this document (see
Section 9 "Disconnecting the Inverter from Voltage Sources").

2.3 Symbols on the label
Symbol
Explanation
Beware of a danger zone
This symbol indicates that the inverter must be additionally
grounded if additional grounding or equipotential bonding is
required at the installation site.
Risk of injury due to electric shock
Touching an ungrounded PV module or array frame can
cause a lethal electric shock.
• connect and ground the PV modules, array frame and
electrically conductive surfaces so that there is continuous
conduction.
Risk of burns due to hot enclosure parts
Some parts of the enclosure can get hot during operation.
• During operation, do not touch any parts other than the
enclosure lid of the inverter.
Damage to the inverter due to electrostatic discharge
Internal components of the inverter can be irreparably
damaged by electrostatic discharge.
• Ground yourself before touching any component.

10 User Manual UM0014_ASW 3K-20K-LT-G2 PRO_EN_V02_0622
Beware of high voltage and operating current
The inverter operates at high voltage and current. Work on the
inverter must only be carried out by skilled and authorized
electricians.
Beware of hot surfaces
The inverter can get hot during operation. Avoid contact during
operation.
WEEE designation
Do not dispose of the inverter together with the household
waste but in accordance with the disposal regulations for
electronic waste applicable at the installation site.
CE marking
The product complies with the requirements of the applicable
EU directives.
Certification mark
The product has been tested by TUV and got the quality
certification mark.
RCM Mark
The product complies with the requirements of the applicable
Australian standards.
Capacitors discharge
Before opening the covers, the inverter must be disconnected
from the grid and PV array. Wait at least 5 minutes to allow the
energy storage capacitors to fully discharge.
Observe the documentation
Observe all documentation supplied with the product

8. The mounting method, location and surface must be suitable for the
inverter's weight and dimensions.
9. If mounted in a residential area, we recommend mounting the inverter on
a solid surface. Plasterboard and similar materials are not recommended
due to audible vibrations when in use.
10.Don’t put any objects on the inverter. Do not cover the inverter.
11.Mount the inverter vertically or tilted backward by max.15°.

16 User Manual UM0014_ASW 3K-20K-LT-G2 PRO_EN_V02_0622
12.Never install the inverter horizontally, or with a forward tilt or with a
backward tilt or even with upside down. The horizontal installation can
result in damage to the inverter.
13.Mount the inverter at eye level for easy inspection.

User Manual UM0014_ASW 3K-20K-LT-G2 PRO_EN_V02_0622 17
4.2 Mounting the inverter
Mounting procedure:
1.Use the wall bracket as a drilling template and mark the positions of the drill
holes, then drill 3 holes (Φ10) to a depth about 70mm. During operation,
keep the drill vertical to the wall, and hold the drill steady to avoid tilted
holes.
Risk of injury when lifting the inverter, or if it is dropped
The weight of Solplanet inverter is max. 18.6 kg. There is risk of injury if
the inverter is lifted incorrectly or dropped while being transported or when
attaching it to or removing it from the wall bracket.
• Transport and lift the inverter carefully.
Risk of injury due to damaged cables
There may be power cables or other supply lines (e.g. gas or water)
routed in the wall.
• Ensure that no lines are laid in the wall which could be damaged when
drilling holes.

18 User Manual UM0014_ASW 3K-20K-LT-G2 PRO_EN_V02_0622
2.After cleaning the dust and other objects from the holes, place 3 wall
anchors into the holes, then attach the wall bracket to the wall using the
hexagon head screw delivered with the inverter.
3.Hold the inverter using the handles at the corners, attach the inverter onto
the wall bracket tilted slightly downwards.
4.Check both sides of the outer fin of the inverter to ensure that it is securely
in place.
Risk of injury due to the product falls down
If the depth and distance of the holes is not correct, the product maybe fall
down from the wall.
•Before inserting the wall anchors, measure the depth and distance of the
holes.

User Manual UM0014_ASW 3K-20K-LT-G2 PRO_EN_V02_0622 19
5.Attach the outer fins of heat sink to both sides of the wall bracket using M4
screws. (screw driver type: PH2, torque: 1.6 Nm).
Dismante the inverter in reverse order.
