Clearance Requirements

For optimal and safe operation, ensure there is adequate clearance around the inverter. The minimum clearance recommendations in Table 2-2assume a vertical mounting. If clearances are less than these recommendations are used, additional power reduction may occur at high ambient temperatures.

Outdoors:

•

Inverter

• 100 cm (39 inches)

•

Bracket

• 130 cm (51 inches)

 

 

Indoors: the same clearances are recommended but not required.

In front

Sufficient room to allow for easy access to read the display and to prevent

 

 

accidental contact with hot surface.

On sides

Units can be mounted side by side with no clearance between them, but

 

 

15 cm (6 inches) of clearance around the outermost two units is

 

 

recommended. In hot climates, some clearance between units may be

 

 

needed to prevent thermal derating.
