Mounting the Prosine Inverter/Charger

Mounting the Prosine Inverter/Charger

The inverter must be mounted on a vertical surface as shown. Before mounting the Prosine inverter/charger, test the chosen location for adequate space around the unit to allow for connections, ventilation and access to configuration DIP switches. Mounting hardware should be corrosion resistant and #12 or #14. Your mounting system should be able to support three times the weight of the Prosine inverter/charger, which weighs 32 pounds (14.5kg).

The more clearance for ventilation around the unit, the better the performance. Allow at least 5 inches at the bottom, 3 inches on each side, and 1.5 inches at the top for ventilation. For better ventilation, route a fresh-air supply through the bulkhead near the fans. This fresh- air supply must be baffled or otherwise constructed to prevent rain or spray from entering the unit.

Mount the Prosine inverter/charger on a vertical

surface (such as a wall or bulkhead) using the mounting holes provided, with the DC and AC wiring connections at the bottom. Mark the location of the holes on the mounting surface. Use all six mounting holes. If you are installing a Prosine 3.0, you must use the mounting brackets provided with the unit to allow for sufficient air circulation. The mounting holes on these brackets are spaced 16 inches apart to align with wall-stud spacing.

Attach the vent cover/drip shield to the top of the Prosine inverter/charger after securing the unit. The screws for attaching this cover can be found already in the bracket holes. Remove the screws, place cover in the slots and align holes, then replace the screws.
