Safety Information

This section contains safety information that must be observed at all times when working on or with
the product.
To prevent personal injury and property damage and to ensure long-term operation of the product,
read this section carefully and observe all safety information at all times.
Danger to life due to high voltages of the PV array
When exposed to light, the PV array generates dangerous DC voltage, which is present in the
DC conductors and the live components of the inverter. Touching the DC conductors or the live
components can lead to lethal electric shocks.
• Disconnect the product from voltage sources and make sure it cannot be reconnected
before working on the device.
Increased electromagnetic radiation through the antenna
During operation, the antenna produces an electromagnetic field and can interfere with other
devices (e.g., pacemakers) due to electromagnetic interference.
• Persons must not remain closer than 20 cm to the antenna for long periods of time.

Electrical installation

All electrical installations must be carried out according to the electrical requirements
applicable on site.
• All work must be carried out in such a way that it complies with the technical standards
for electrical devices and the regulations for electrical installation.
• All work must comply with the regulations on occupational safety and hygiene.
