5 - Installation
Distances
• Hardware and software maintenance on device entails removing the
front cover. Check that the correct installation safety distances are
observed in order to allow routine check and maintenance operations.
• Provide sufcient working space in front of the inverter that allows to
open the cover and to make connections on the wiring box.

minimum free
space to operate
with the inverter
• Install at a height which takes into consideration the weight of the ap-
pliance and in a position which is suitable for servicing, unless suitable
means are provided to carry out the operation.
• If possible, install at eye-level so that the status LEDS can be seen
easily.
• Respect the minimum distances from objects around the inverter that
could prevent the inverter installation and restrict or block the air ow.
The minimum clearance distances depends from multiple factor:
- Ventilation ow on the rear side of the inverter. Depending of the sup-
port where the inverter is installed it changes the upper (A) required free
space: if the inverter is installed on a support without any openings (e.g.
a wall), the heat ow will be entirely directed to the top of the inverter; for
this reason the upper (A) minimum required free space must be 50 cm.
Otherwise in case of the inverter is installed on a support with openings
(e.g. frame installation) the heat can freely ow on the rear side of the
inverter; so the upper (A) minimum required free space can be reduced
to 15 cm.
