Requirements for the mounting location:

• The mounting location must be suitable for the installation of the Sunny Multigate in a distribution box.
• The mounting location must be suitable for the weight and dimensions of the Sunny Multigate ( > Technical Data).

• The mounting location must be inaccessible to children.
• AC cable route of the entire PV system with Sunny Multigate: maximum 30 m
  When installing several Sunny Multigate devices in a PV system, you must lay the AC cable of each Sunny Multigate to the respective inverter separately in order to guarantee trouble-free communication between the Sunny Multigate and the inverter.

• A robust support surface must be available for mounting the device, e.g. concrete, walls. In living areas, ensure that the support surface is not drywall or similar.
• The mounting location should be freely and safely accessible at all times without the need for any auxiliary equipment (such as scaffolding or lifting platforms). Non-fulfillment of these criteria may restrict servicing.
• The mounting location should not be exposed to direct solar irradiation.
• Climatic conditions must be met ( > Technical Data).
• The ambient temperature must be between -40°C and 25°C. This will ensure optimal operation of the Sunny Multigate.

Clearances:

• The clearance inside a metal distribution box must be at least 12.7 mm to walls or other components.

• Within an industrial closure, observe the following clearances to ensure sufficient ventilation:

Recommended clearances

Permitted mounting positions of the Sunny Multigate:

• Only mount the Sunny Multigate horizontally.
