Safety Information

This section contains safety information that must be observed at all times when working on or with the product.

To prevent personal injury and property damage and to ensure long-term operation of the product, read this section carefully and observe all safety information at all times.

DANGER

Danger to life due to high voltages of the PV array

When exposed to sunlight, the PV array generates dangerous DC voltage, which is present in the DC conductors and the live components of the inverter. Touching the DC conductors or the live components can lead to lethal electric shocks. If you disconnect the DC connectors from the inverter under load, an electric arc may occur leading to electric shock and burns.

  1. Do not touch non-insulated cable ends.
  2. Do not touch the DC conductors.
  3. Do not touch any live components of the inverter.
  4. Have the inverter mounted, installed and commissioned only by qualified persons with the appropriate skills.
  5. If an error occurs, have it rectified by qualified persons only.
  6. Prior to performing any work on the inverter, disconnect it from all voltage sources as described in this document.

DANGER

Danger to life due to electric shock

Touching an ungrounded PV module or array frame can cause a lethal electric shock.

  1. Connect and ground the PV modules, array frame and electrically conductive surfaces so that there is continuous conduction. Observe the applicable local regulations.

CAUTION

Risk of burns due to hot enclosure parts

Some parts of the enclosure can get hot during operation.

  1. During operation, do not touch any parts other than the enclosure lid of the inverter.

NOTICE

Damage to the seal of the enclosure lid in sub-zero conditions

If you open the enclosure lid in sub-zero conditions, the sealing of the enclosure lid can be damaged. This can lead to moisture entering the inverter.

  1. Do not open the inverter at ambient temperatures lower than -5°C.
  2. If a layer of ice has formed on the seal of the enclosure lid in sub-zero conditions, remove it prior to opening the inverter (e.g. by melting the ice with warm air). Observe the applicable safety regulations.

NOTICE

Damage to the display or the type label due to the use of cleaning agents

  1. If the inverter is dirty, clean the enclosure, the enclosure lid, the type label, the display and the LEDs with a damp cloth and clear water only.
