Frame-mounted power optimizers are mounted directly on the module
frame, regardless of racking system (rail-less or with rails). For
installation of frame-mounted power optimizers, refer to
http://www.solaredge.com/sites/default/files/installing_frame_
mounted_power_optimizers.pdf.
The power optimizer can be placed in any orientation.
If connecting more modules than power optimizer inputs in parallel, use a branch
cable. Some commercial power optimizer models have a dual input.
Position the power optimizer close enough to its module so that their cables can be
connected.
Make sure to use power optimizers that have the required output and input
conductor length.
Completely shaded modules may cause their power optimizers to temporarily shut
down. This will not affect the performance of the other power optimizers in the
string, as long as the minimum number of unshaded power optimizers connected in
a string of modules is met. If under typical conditions fewer than the minimum
power optimizers are connected to unshaded modules, add more power optimizers
to the string.
To allow for heat dissipation, maintain clearance as specified below.
All power optimizers, except for the P860 and M1600 power optimizers
