Mounting and Anchoring the Units
To mount and anchor the Xantrex inverter:
1. Predrill the floor or pad to accept masonry anchors for 12 mm bolts, or
ensure it has pre-installed anchoring bolts that will fit the 16 mm mounting
holes. See Figure 2-2 on page 2–4.
2. Lift the Xantrex inverter from beneath with a forklift or pallet jack as shown in
Figure 3-2 on page 3–3, or lift the Xantrex inverter from above with a crane as
shown in Figure 3-3 on page 3–3. Move the enclosure into place.
3. Secure the enclosure feet to the floor with the appropriate anchoring hardware.
Opening or Closing Access Doors
To lock or unlock any of enclosure doors on the inverter:
1. Use the key provided with the unit.
2. Insert the key in the lock and turn clockwise to open or counterclockwise to
lock.
3. Pull the door open.
WARNING: Multiple sources with risk of electric shock,
explosion, and arc flash
The Xantrex inverter is energized from the PV array, from the AC grid, and from an
auxiliary AC source (backed up with a Xantrex UPS for Xantrex GT500 E &
Xantrex GT630 E units with low-voltage ride-through capability). All 3 sources
(4 including a Xantrex UPS) must be disconnected, locked-out and tagged-out,
and all circuits tested to verify that the inverter is fully de-energized, according to
the procedure on page viii, before servicing or maintenance. Opening the AC
and DC disconnect switches on the inverter does not remove all power from the
inverter. Wait 20 minutes for the DC bus capacitors, located within the cabinet, to
discharge after removing power.
