Chapter 3 Environment and Installation
3.1 Environment
The environment will directly affect the proper operation and the life span of the inverter. To ensure
that the inverter will give maximum service life, please comply with the following environmental
conditions:
Protection
Protection Class
IP20/NEMA 1 or IP00
Operating
Temperature
Ambient Temperature: (-10°C - +40°C (14 -104 °F)
Without Cover: -10°C - +50°C (14-122 °F);
but it is required to derate 2% of
current at each additional 1
°C.
The maximum operating temperature is 60°C.
If several inverters are placed in the same control panel, provide a heat
removal means to maintain ambient temperatures below 40°C
Storage
Temperature
-20°C - +70°C (-4 -158 °F)
Humidity
95% non-condensing
Relative humidity 5% to 95%, free of moisture.
(Follow IEC60068-2-78 standard)
Altitude
Altitude: Below 1000 m (3281 ft.)
It is required to derate 1% of current at each additional 100 m.
The maximum altitude is 3000 m.
Installation Site
Avoid exposure to rain or moisture.
Avoid direct sunlight.
Avoid oil mist and salinity.
Avoid corrosive liquid and gas.
Avoid dust, lint fibers, and small metal filings.
Keep away from radioactive and flammable materials.
Avoid electromagnetic interference (soldering machines, power machines).
Avoid vibration (stamping, punching machines etc.).
Add a vibration-proof pad if the situation cannot be avoided.
Shock
Maximum acceleration: 1.0G (9.8m/s²), from 49.84 to 150 Hz
Displacement amplitude : 0.3mm (peak value), from 10 to 49.84 Hz
(Follow IEC60068-2-6 standard)
