MOUNTING
• The E Series FX Series Inverter/Charger is approved for indoor or enclosed protected mounting only.
• An FX weighs approximately 56 lbs (25.40 kg) and must be secured with appropriate fasteners to
a sturdy mounting surface capable of supporting its weight. It is easier for two people to install the
FX due to its weight.
• OutBack FXs can be mounted in any position, but they perform better in locations off ering plenty of
air circulation.
• NOTE: If using an OutBack FLEXware Mounting Plate, avoid large air gaps behind the plate which
can result in louder mechanical noise during inverting/charging under heavy loads.
• Due to the variance in other mounting methods, OutBack only endorses the use of FLEXware or
previous versions of its mounting plate for installing the FX and associated system components
using M6 X 20 mm machine screws (stainless steel for FLEXware and self-tapping for older
mounting plates), one per corner. Follow the instruction manual that comes with each mounting
system.
• If mounting the FX on other surfaces such as plywood, wall studs, or masonry, use appropriate
fasteners to support approximately its weight. OutBack cannot be responsible for damage to the FX
if it is attached with inadequate fasteners.
• Install and secure each FX before attaching any wiring.
