SUNSYNK MAX | User Manual
4.2. Selecting the Mounting Area
This Sunsynk MAX is designed for outdoor use (IP65).
DO NOT install the inverter in the following areas:
Areas with high salt content, such as the marine environment. It will deteriorate the metal
parts and possibly lead to water/dampness penetrating the unit.
Areas filled with mineral oil or containing splashed oil or steam such as found in kitchens. It
will deteriorate plastic parts of the unit, causing those parts to fail or allow water/damp to
penetrate the unit.
Areas that generate substances that adversely affect the equipment, such as sulphuric gas,
chlorine gas, acid, or alkali. These can cause the copper pipes and brazed joints to corrode
and fail to conduct electricity reliably.
Areas that can cause combustible gas to leak, which contains suspended carbon-fibre or
flammable dust, or volatile inflammable such as paint thinner or gasoline.
Areas where there may be gas leaks and where gas may settle around the unit as this is a
fire risk.
Areas where animals may urinate on the unit or ammonia may be generated.
High altitude areas (over 2000 metres above sea level).
Environments where precipitation or humidity are above 95%.
Areas where the air circulation is too low.
Areas exposed to direct sunlight.
