Installation Direction and Dimensions

Install the Inverter under the following conditions.

• Ambient temperature for operation (panel-mounting): -10°C to 50°C

• Humidity: 95% or less (no condensation)

	Install the Inverter in a clean location free from oil mist and dust. Alternatively,
	install it in a totally enclosed panel that is completely protected from floating
	dust.
	When installing or operating the Inverter, always take special care so that
	metal powder, oil, water, or other foreign matter does not get into the Inverter.
	Do not install the Inverter on inflammable material such as wood.
Direction	Install the Inverter on a vertical surface so that the characters on the
	nameplate are oriented upward.
Dimensions	When installing the Inverter, always provide the following clearances to allow
	normal heat dissipation from the Inverter.

Ambient Temperature Control

To enhance operation reliability, the Inverter should be installed in an environment free from extreme temperature changes.

If the Inverter is installed in an enclosed environment such as a box, use a cooling fan or air conditioner to maintain the internal air temperature below 50°C. The life of the built-in electrolytic capacitors of the Inverter is prolonged by maintaining the internal air temperature as low as possible.

The surface temperature of the Inverter may rise approximately 30°C higher than the ambient temperature. Be sure to keep away equipment and wires from the Inverter as far as possible if the equipment and wires are easily influenced by heat.

Protecting Inverter from Foreign Matter during Installation

Place a cover over the Inverter during installation to shield it from metal power produced by drilling. Upon completion of installation, always remove the cover from the Inverter. Otherwise, ventilation will be affected, causing the Inverter to overheat.
