11.
CAUTION
Risk of burns due to hot enclosure parts
• Wait 30 minutes before disassembling the inverter. This will allow the enclosure to cool
down and thus prevent burn injuries.
12. Remove the inverter by lifting it vertically up and off the wall mounting bracket.
Commissioning the Replacement Device
NOTICE
Damage to the enclosure seal in subfreezing conditions
If you open the product when temperatures are below freezing, the enclosure seals can be
damaged. Moisture can penetrate the product and damage it.
• Only open the product if the ambient temperature is not below -5°C.
• If a layer of ice has formed on the enclosure seal when temperatures are below freezing,
remove it prior to opening the product (e.g. by melting the ice with warm air).
NOTICE
Damage to the inverter due to electrostatic discharge
Touching electronic components can cause damage to or destroy the inverter through
electrostatic discharge.
• Ground yourself before touching any component.
1. Mount the replacement device and make the electrical connections (see the operating manual
of the inverter).
2. If needed, install interfaces in the replacement device and connect the interfaces (see the
interface manual).
3. If needed, install a surge arrester in the replacement device (see Section6.4 "Retrofitting the
Surge Arrester TypeII", page32).
4. If there is a label with "transport lid" affixed to the upper lid of the replacement device, replace
the upper enclosure lid of the replacement device with the upper enclosure lid of the defective
inverter.
DANGER
Danger to life due to high voltages
Wait 20minutes before removing the upper enclosure lid to allow residual voltages to
discharge.
• Loosen the screws of the upper enclosure lid using an Allen key (AF4) and remove the
enclosure lid.
