General recommendation on installation position
ATTENTION – A Please refer to the warranty terms and conditions to evaluate any possible
warranty exclusions due to improper installation.
•
Refer to “Characteristics and technical data” paragraph to check the required environmental
conditions (protection rating, temperature, humidity, altitude, etc.).
• The installation location shall be easily accessible.
• The installation of the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight is NOT acceptable. (Add awning
in case of direct sunlight exposure installation).
• Final installation of the device must not compromise access to any disconnection devices that may
be located externally.
• Do not install the unit in small closed rooms where air cannot circulate freely and where the heat
produced could create discomfort to people. Always ensure that air flow around the inverter is not
blocked so as to prevent overheating.
• Do not install the unit in locations where flammable substances or gases may be present.
• Do not install the unit on wooden walls or other flammable supports.
• Install the unit on a wall or strong structure suitable to bear the weight.
•
Do not install the unit in rooms where people live or where the prolonged presence of people or
animals is expected, because of the high noise that the inverter could produces during operation.
The level of the sound emission is heavily influenced by where the unit 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.
