Mounting Recommendations
NOTE: The Commander MPPT 60 controller requires at least 6 inches(150mm) of
clearance above and below for proper air flow. Ventilation is highly recommended
if mounted in an enclosure.
WARNING: Never install the controller in a sealed enclosure with flooded batteries.
Gas can accumulate and there is a risk of explosion.
1. Choose Mounting Location—place the controller on a vertical surface protected
from direct sunlight, high temperatures, and water. Make sure there is good
ventilation.
2. Check for Clearance—verify that there is sufficient room to run wires, as well as
clearance above and below the controller for ventilation. The clearance should be
at least 6 inches (150mm).
3. Mark Holes—Mark the four mounting holes locations on the mounting surface.
4. Drill Holes—Remove the controller and drill four sizeable holes at the marked
locations.
5. Secure the charge controller—Place the controller on the surface and align the
mounting holes with the drilled holes in step 4. Secure the controller in place using
the mounting screws.
