4.1 Safety
4.2 Selecting the Mounting Location
Consider the following requirements when selecting the mounting location:
• The mounting method and location must be suitable for the inverter's weight and dimensions
(see Section 11 "Technical Data" (page 62)).
• Mount on a solid surface.
• The mounting location must at all times be clear and safely accessible without the use of
additional aids such as scaffolding or lifting platforms. Non-fulfillment of these criteria may
restrict servicing.
• Mount vertically or tilted backwards by max. 45°.
DANGER!
Danger to life due to fire or explosion
Despite careful construction, electrical devices can cause fires.
• Do not mount the inverter on flammable construction materials.
• Do not mount the inverter in areas where highly flammable materials are stored.
• Do not mount the inverter in a potentially explosive atmosphere.
CAUTION!
Risk of burns due to hot enclosure parts
• Mount the inverter in such a way that the enclosure cannot be touched inadvertently.
CAUTION!
Risk of injury due to the heavy weight of the inverter
• Take the inverter's weight of approx. 32 kg into account for mounting.
