Checking Before Installation

Outer Packing Materials

Before unpacking the inverter, check the outer packing materials for damage, such as holes and cracks, and check the inverter model. If any damage is found or the inverter model is not what you requested, do not unpack the package and contact your supplier as soon as possible.

NOTE: You are advised to remove the packing materials within 24 hours before installing the inverter.

Package Contents

After unpacking the inverter, check that the contents are intact and complete. If any damage is found or any component is missing, contact your supplier.

Determining the Installation Position

Environment Requirements

Basic Requirements

1. The SUN2000-（3KTL-10KTL）-M0 is protected to IP65 and can be installed indoors or outdoors.

2. Do not install the SUN2000 in a place where personnel are easy to come into contact with its enclosure and heat sinks, because these parts are extremely hot during operation.

3. Do not install the SUN2000 in areas with flammable or explosive materials.

4. Do not install the SUN2000 at a place within children's reach.

5. Do not install the SUN2000 outdoors in salt areas because it will be corroded there and may cause fire. A salt area refers to the region within 500 meters from the coast or prone to sea breeze. The regions prone to sea breeze vary depending on weather conditions (such as typhoons and monsoons) or terrains (such as dams and hills).

6. The SUN2000 must be installed in a well-ventilated environment to ensure good heat dissipation.

7. Recommended: Install the SUN2000 in a sheltered place or a place with an awning.

 

Mounting Structure Requirements

1. The mounting structure where the SUN2000 is installed must be fireproof.

2. Do not install the SUN2000-（3KTL-10KTL）-M0 on flammable building materials.

3. The SUN2000 is heavy. Ensure that the installation surface is solid enough to bear the weight load.

4. In residential areas, do not install the SUN2000 on drywalls or walls made of similar materials which have a weak sound insulation performance because the noise generated by the SUN2000 is noticeable.

 

Space Requirements

Installation Angle Requirements

The SUN2000 can be wall-mounted or pole-mounted. The installation angle requirements are as follows:

Install the SUN2000 vertically or at a maximum back tilt of 15 degrees to facilitate heat dissipation.

Do not install the SUN2000 at forward tilted, excessive back tilted, side tilted, horizontal, or upside down positions.

Figure 4-1 Installation tilts

 

 

Installation Space Requirements

Reserve enough space around the SUN2000 to ensure sufficient space for installation and heat dissipation.

Figure 4-2 Installation space

 

 

When installing multiple SUN2000s, install them in horizontal mode if sufficient space is available and install them in triangle mode if no sufficient space is available. Stacked installation is not recommended.

Figure 4-3 Horizontal installation (recommended)

Wall-mounted Installation

Procedure

1. Determine the installation positions for drilling holes, and mark the positions using a marker.

2. Secure the mounting brackets.

NOTE: M6x60 expansion bolts are delivered with the SUN2000. If the length and amount of the bolts do not meet installation requirements, prepare M6 stainless steel expansion bolts by yourself.

(4) Flat washer	(5) Expansion tube

 

Danger: Avoid drilling holes in the utility pipes or cables attached to the back of the wall.

NOTE:

(1).To prevent dust inhalation or contact with eyes, wear safety goggles and an anti-dust respirator when drilling holes.

(2). Clean up any dust in and around the holes using a vacuum cleaner and measure the distance between holes. If large hole tolerance exists, position and drill holes again.

(3). After removing the bolt, spring washer, and flat washer, level the front of the expansion tube with the concrete wall. Otherwise, the mounting brackets will not stay steady on the concrete wall.

(4). Partially loosen the nut, flat washer and spring washer of the two expansion bolts below.

3. Install the SUN2000 onto the mounting bracket.

4. Tighten nuts.

5. (Optional) Install the anti-theft lock.

NOTE:

(1)Prepare an anti-theft lock suitable for the lock hole diameter (Ф8 mm) by yourself.

(2)An outdoor waterproof lock is recommended.

(3)Keep the key to the anti-theft lock safe.

Support-mounted Installation

Prerequisites

Prepare M6 stainless bolt assemblies (including flat washers, spring washers, and M6 bolts) with appropriate lengths as well as matched flat washers and nuts based on the support specifications.

Procedure

1. Determine the hole positions based on the marking-off template, and then mark the hole positions using a marker.

Figure 4-11 Determining hole positions

 

 

2. Drill holes using a hammer drill.

NOTE: You are advised to apply anti-rust paint on the hole positions for protection.
