13. Inspection and maintenance
Warning
Mandatory
action
The equipment must be inspected every day.
If the equipment is not inspected and maintained, errors and malfunctions may not be discovered
which could lead to accidents.
Before inspection, perform the following steps.
(1) Shut off all input power to the inverter.
(2) Wait at least 15 minutes and check to make sure that the charge lamp is no longer lit.
Performing an inspection without carrying out these steps first could lead to electric shock.
Be sure to inspect the inverter regularly and periodically to prevent it from breaking down because of the environment
of use, such as temperature, humidity, dust and vibration, or deterioration of its components with aging.
13.1 Regular
inspection
Since electronic parts are susceptible to heat, install the inverter in a cool, well-ventilated and dust-free place.
This is essential for increasing the service life.
The purpose of regular inspections is to maintain the correct environment of use and to find any sign of failure or
malfunction by comparing current operation data with past operation records.

*)
The voltage measured may slightly vary from voltmeter to voltmeter. When measuring the voltage,
always take readings from the same circuit tester or voltmeter.
