Notes on Transporting
Sunny Central Inverters
(SC 100 outdoor / indoor)
The aim: to avoid damage or accidents during transport by the shipping company and on the
construction site.
The following measures have been introduced to achieve this aim:
• For delivering SC central inverters, all shipping companies have generally agreed not to transfer
the cabinets between transporters.
• After being packed, all cabinets shall be labeled on the front and rear sides with the
international center of gravity symbol (see figure A). The symbols shall be sprayed on using a
stencil.
• In addition, transport instructions shall be affixed to the inverter (see figure A). The transport
markings stipulate that forklift or pallet trucks must always load the switch cabinets by their long
sides (front and rear sides of the SC). It is forbidden to lift them by their short sides.
• Transport by crane is allowed if a suitable crane fork is used that is pushed through the openings
in the base of the switch cabinet (figure A).
• Transporing them using the eyelets on the top of the cabinet is not allowed (SC specific, see
overview table).
• The manufacturers shall ensure that “high quality” pallets are used.
• The cabinets must not be tilted.
