Maintenance
Inverter
Periodic maintenance of your SE10 inverter involves little more than
checking for any obstructions to the black cooling heatsink at the rear of the
inverter. The heatsink must be cleared of any accumulated foreign matter
that may have lodged itself between the fins since the last maintenance
check, e.g. insect nests. Also verify that air flow around the inverter has not
become restricted.
Batteries
1.
Every week, carry out a thorough visual inspection of all battery
wiring, taking particular note of the condition of inter-connections
between cells. This maintenance should be carried out in conjunction
with the battery manufacturers recommended maintenance.
Safety Hint
When working on batteries of such high capacity it is
essential that you wear protective clothing, some form of eye
protection and rubber-soled work boots. Please regard your
batteries with a great deal of caution, and if in any doubt,
entrust this work to your supplier / installer.
2.
Check that the stainless steel inter-connecting bolts are tight and have
no corrosion. If corrosion is evident, carefully follow the following
procedure.
•
Disconnect the system battery fuse before working on the battery
bank.
•
Unbolt the stainless steel bolts and nuts of any corroded
connections and thoroughly clean the joint with a wire brush or
file, taking extreme care not to short circuit any battery cells with
any tools.
•
Re-assemble and smear a small amount of Vaseline or similar
grease over the surface of the joint to slow down any future
corrosion.
