Technical Description
3.4 Checking the Delivery
On receipt of the equipment, check the packaging and the device for any possible
damage and compare the contents of the delivery with the delivery documentation. In
the case of damage to the device and/or unclear delivery contents, contact
SMA
Technologie AG immediately (contact address is in the appendix).
3.5 Storage
The SSM-C may only be stored in rooms protected from dust and moisture.
3.6 Installation
The requirements relating to the installation location, the manner of installation and the
mounting position must be observed.
In addition to this, the following points must be noted:
•
The installation location must be easily accessible and offer a secure base for
working on the device.
•
The connection cables must be connected to the internal strain-relief clamp in the
base in order to prevent exertion of mechanical strain on the housing.
•
Interference testing occurred as per DIN EN 61000; accordingly, the installation
location must be in an area where EMI fields are slight.
The SSM-C is built using the latest technology, and according to recognized safety
standards. Despite this, a fault resulting in arcing cannot be ruled out (see section 3.7
"Special Hazards of Photovoltaic Systems", page 11).
This can result in melting of the housing as well as fire and smoke, which represents a
hazard to personnel or equipment. This must be taken into consideration upon
installation.
•
The equipment may not be installed near to inflammable materials. If this cannot
be avoided, preventative measures must be taken, which prevent fire and smoke
from spreading.
•
The equipment may not be installed in critical areas, escape routes, living spaces
or office spaces.
