Step 1: Choosing a Location for the Inverter/Charger
\
Flammable or combustible materials are defined as “any material containing
wood, compressed paper, cellulose, plant fibers, plastics, liquids, or other
material that will ignite and burn, whether flame-proofed or not” according to the
NFPA. Flammable liquids are defined as “any liquid whose flash point does not
exceed 100 °F (38 °C).” Examples of flammable liquids are gasoline, methanol,
and ether.
When choosing a wall to install the Conext SW, choose a wall that is not
considered a flammable material such as concrete, brick, or metal.
The inverter should only be installed in a location that meets the following
requirements:
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
For indoor use only.
• Do not install and/or operate in compartments containing flammable
materials or in locations that require ignition-protected equipment.
• Do not cover or obstruct the ventilation openings.
• Do not install this unit in a compartment with limited airflow.
• Do not install where access to disconnecting means is obstructed.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.
Dry Do not allow water or other fluids to drip or splash on the
inverter/charger. Do not expose to rain, snow or water.
Cool Normal ambient air temperature should be between
32 °F and 77 °F (0 °C and 25 °C).
Close to battery
but not in the
same
compartment
The length and size of your DC cables will affect
performance. Use the DC cables recommended in
Table 1-2 on page 1–15. The unit should not be installed
in the battery compartment due to the possible presence
of explosive hydrogen gas from the batteries.
Clearance Allow as much space around the inverter/charger as
possible. It is recommended that other objects and
surfaces be at least 10" (254 mm) away from the
ventilation openings for best performance.
