5.2 Selecting the Mounting Location
Consider the following requirements when selecting the mounting location:
• The mounting method and location must be suitable for the weight and size of the inverter
(see Section 13 "Technical Data" (page 85)).
• 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 execution of service assignments.
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 injury due to the heavy weight of the inverter (approx. 53 kg)
• Take the weight of the inverter into account for transport.
• Select a suitable mounting location and mounting surface.
• When mounting the back panel, use fastening material suitable for the mounting
surface.
• Two people are needed to mount the inverter.
CAUTION!
Risk of burns due to hot enclosure parts
• Mount the inverter in such a way that it cannot be touched inadvertently.
