4�2 Selecting the installation location
DANGER!
Fatal fire or explosion hazard!
The inverter is an electrical device with heat generation and the pos-
sibility of sparking.
● Install the inverter in an environment that is free of ammable
gases and uids
● Never install the inverter near combustible materials. The instal-
lation base must be non-combustible.
● Follow the local fire safety regulations.
Select the installation site according to the following indications:
● Select a dry location protected from water and snow
● Install the inverter in an easily accessible location, so that the maintenance
work can be carried out easily
● Do not expose the inverter to direct sunlight
● Never install one inverter above another (this would reduce the cooling
eect)
● The environmental temperature in the installation site must be between
-25°C and 60°C
● Make sure there is a good air circulation. An insucient air circulation may
reduce the performance and the lifetime of the components inside the
inverter.
● Maintain the following minimum installation distances:
50 cm
60 cm
20 cm
20 cm
