2. INSTALLATION
2.1
Installation precautions
• The PV (solar panel) input of this product is not isolated from the battery output.
Therefore the PV-, battery- and control circuits are considered hazardous and
should not be user accessible.
• Keep at least 15cm of clear space available above and below the product
• Always protect the PV and battery connections against inadvertent contact. Install
the product in a well ventilated enclosure or provide other means of protection.
• Always use flexible multistranded copper cables for the PV and battery
connections. Using cables with a too low strand count will result in a higher contact
resistance which eventually may result in fire hazards.
• Always provide a means of strain relief for all connected cables, in order to limit
the amount of mechanical stress to the connections
• Make sure that the ambient temperature is between -35°C and +60°C. Above
+45°C the solar charger will automatically derate the output power. Do not expose
the charger to any heat source (such as direct sunlight or heating). Also avoid
charger exposure to excessive vibrations.
