12.3.1 Overview
For maintenance items beyond this manual, please confirm with SUNGROW or
contact SUNGROW for maintenance, and unauthorized operation is strictly
prohibited.
12.3.2 Introduction
The inverter can be installed outdoors. Harsh environmental condition or long-time
operation, however, may cause aging and damage to the inverter. Check and maintain the
inverter periodically and replace the aged components, which can effectively prolong the
service life and improve the performance of the devices inside the inverter.
Unscheduled maintenance is also required,esp.,when the system performance is
poor.
12.3.3 Maintenance Interval
Maintain the inverter and internal electric devices periodically to ensure the good
performance of the inverter.
The maintenance interval described in this chapter is indicative only. The actual interval
depends on the on-site environment condition. If the inverter is located in harsh environment
