| RCM mark of conformity| | UKCA mark of conformity
| ETL certification| | Caution, hot surface
| Caution, risk of electric shock| | Caution, risk of danger
| Read the enclosed documentations| | Do not dispose of the inverter together
with household waste.
| Additional grounding point.
| Do not operate this inverter until it is isolated from mains and on-site PV
generation suppliers.
| Danger of high voltage.
Do not touch live parts for 5 minutes after disconnection from the power
sources.
Note: The table is only used for the description of symbols which may be used on the inverter. Please be subject to the actual symbols on the device.
DANGER!
Lethal danger from electrical shock due to the inverter
- Only operate the inverter when it is technically faultless. Otherwise, electric shock or fire may occur.
- Do not open the enclosure in any case without authorization from SolaX. Unauthorized opening will void the warranty and cause lethal danger or serious injury due to electric shock.
DANGER!
Lethal danger from electrical shock due to the PV
- When exposed to sunlight, high DC voltage will be generated by PV modules. Death or lethal injuries will occur due to electric shock.
- Never touch the positive or negative pole of PV connecting device. Touching both of them at the same time is prohibited as well.
- Do not ground the positive or negative pole of the PV modules.
- Only qualified personnel can perform the wiring of the PV panels.
WARNING!
Risk of personnel injury or inverter damage
- During operation, do not touch any parts other than DC switch, LCD panel and the enclosure lid of the inverter.
- Never connect or disconnect the AC and DC connectors when the inverter is running.
- Turn off the AC and DC power and disconnect them from the inverter, wait for 5 minutes to fully discharge the voltage before attempting any maintenance, cleaning or working on any circuits connected.
- Make sure that the input DC voltage ≤ Maximum DC input voltage of the inverter. Overvoltage may cause permanent damage to the inverter, which is NOT covered by the warranty.
CAUTION!
- Keep children away from the inverter.
- Pay attention to the weight of the inverter. Personal injuries may be caused if not handled properly.
NOTICE!
- If an external RCD is required by local regulations, check which type of RCD is required for relevant electric codes. It is recommended to use a Type-A RCD with the value of 300 mA.
- All the product labels and nameplate on the inverter shall be maintained clearly visible.
