16 SB30TL_40TL_50TL-IA-IEN120231 Installation Guide
• Mount vertically or tilted backward by max. 15°.
• The connection area must point downwards.
• Never mount the device with a forward tilt.
• Never install the device with a sideways tilt.
• Do not mount horizontally.
• Mount at eye level to allow operating status to be read at all times.
• The ambient temperature should be below 40 °C to ensure optimal operation.
• Do not expose the inverter to direct sunlight to avoid power reduction due to excessive heating.
• In living areas, do not mount the unit on plasterboard walls or similar to avoid audible vibrations.
The inverter can make noises when in use, which may be perceived as a nuisance in a living
area.
• Observe the minimum clearances to walls, other
inverters, or objects as shown in the diagram in
order to ensure sufficient heat dissipation and
sufficient space for removing the Electronic Solar
Switch.
Multiple inverters installed in areas with high ambient temperatures
There must be sufficient clearance between the individual inverters to ensure the cooling air
from the adjacent inverter flows freely.
If necessary, increase the clearance spaces and make sure there is enough ventilation to
ensure sufficient cooling of the inverters.
