Risk of explosion! Never install the controller in a sealed enclose with flooded
batteries! Do not install the controller in a confined area where battery gas can
accumulate.
Risk of electric shock! When wiring the solar modules, the PV array can
produce a high open-circuit voltage, so turn off the breaker before wiring and
be careful when wiring.
Tracer-AN series controllers have no battery reverse protection. Do not
reverse the battery during the wiring. Otherwise, the controller may be
damaged.
The controller requires at least 150mm of clearance above and below for proper
airflow. Ventilation is highly recommended if mounted in an enclosure.
Installation procedures:
Step 1: Determine the installation location and heat-dissipation space
When installing the controller, ensure enough air flowing through the controller's heat sink.
Please leave at least 150mm clearance away from the upper and lower edges.
Ventilation is highly recommended if mounted in an enclosure.
