2 Safety instructions

■ SolarMax inverters may be installed only by qualifi ed electricians.
■ Please do not commission the device if the casing is damaged or you are
not sure whether the device is working properly! Immediately disconnect
the device from the mains and from the solar generator!
■ Before opening the SolarMax device, the DC and AC feed lines must be
disconnected.
■
Large arcs may be generated if connectors are disconnected on the DC side dur-
ing operation. The DC cable must therefore be disconnected before removing
the MC connectors by means of the DC insulation switch on the left-hand side of
the inverter.
■
Caution: The discharge duration of the capacitors is 5 minutes.
■
Please follow the detailed installation instructions in Section 3.
■
Failure to observe the installation instructions will void any warranty and
liability.
■
Disconnect your SolarMax inverter from the mains by disconnecting the AC feed
line before carrying out any maintenance and cleaning on the solar generator.
■
Please follow the general local installation regulations.

3 Installation

SolarMax inverters operate with high DC voltages. The complete system
must therefore be installed with great diligence, following all relevant reg-
ulations. Contact with live parts can cause critical injuries or death. Only
suitably qualifi ed personnel may connect the SolarMax inverter to the mains. The
installer must be approved by the relevant energy utility company.
The maximum solar generator output can be found in the data sheet.
Warning: The device may only be opened in de-energised state (AC and DC
side). Wait for fi ve minutes to allow the capacitors to discharge.
3.1 Installation
The device should be installed and connected with the cover closed. Sputnik
Engineering has developed a mounting rail in order to simplify the installation. Two
zinc-plated wall screws (6 x 50 mm) and two wall plugs are included. First install
the mounting rail on the wall. The SolarMax inverter can then be pushed onto the
mounting rail. Fasten the inverter at the left and right of the mounting rail with two
M6 x 12 screws.
