Fire prevention
CAUTION!
Danger due to poor or unprofessional installation.
This may result in damage to inverters and other live photovoltaic system com-
ponents.
Poor or unprofessional installation can cause overheating of cables and terminal
connections and result in arcs. These can cause heat damage, which in turn may
lead to fires.
Observe the following when connecting AC and DC cables:
▶
Tighten all terminals to the torque specified in the Operating Instructions
▶
Tighten all grounding terminals (PE / GND), including free ones, to the torque
specified in the Operating Instructions
▶
Do not overload cables
▶
Check cables for damage and verify that they are laid correctly
▶
Take note of the safety instructions, Operating Instructions and any local
connection regulations
▶
Using fastening screws, always screw the inverter firmly to the mounting
bracket to the torque specified in the Operating Instructions.
▶
Ensure that the fastening screws are tight before starting the inverter!
IMPORTANT! Fronius will not accept any costs associated with production
downtimes, installer costs, etc., that may arise as the result of a detected arc and
its consequences. Fronius accepts no liability for fires that can occur despite the
presence of the integrated Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter / interruption system
(e.g. fires caused by a parallel arc).
IMPORTANT! After an arc has been detected, the entire photovoltaic system
must be checked for possible damage before resetting the inverter.
Observe the manufacturer's connection, Installation and Operating Instructions
at all times. To reduce the hazard potential to a minimum, perform all installation
and connection work carefully according to the instructions and regulations.
Refer to the device Installation Instructions for the tightening torques to be used
at the relevant terminal connections.
Proper use/
intended pur-
pose
The inverter is intended exclusively to convert direct current from solar modules
into alternating current and to feed this into the public grid.
Utilisation not in accordance with the intended purpose comprises:
-
Any use above and beyond this purpose
-
Making any modifications to the inverter that have not been expressly ap-
proved by Fronius
-
the installation of components that are not distributed or expressly ap-
proved by Fronius.
Fronius shall not be liable for any damage resulting from such action.
No warranty claims will be entertained.
Proper use also includes:
-
Carefully reading and obeying all the instructions and all the safety and
danger notices in the Operating Instructions and Installation Instructions
-
Performing all stipulated maintenance work
-
Installation as specified in the Installation Instructions
