RDM0003 Issue 4 Page 6 of 27 3.2 Panel Environment Aspects of the panel installation may be governed by local regulation, in which case, the regulation shall rule over the recommendations given below. Parameter Rating Mounting Environment The panel must be mounted in a location with no exposure to direct sunlight, moisture, or vibration. Consult the Safety and Regulatory Information leaflet for further information. Mounting Surface The panel must be mounted on a stable, level surface that is not subject to vibration which can sufficiently support its weight and accommodate the necessary fixing hardware. Mounting Orientation The panel must be mounted in its normal orientation to a vertical surface, using a spirit level. Any twist or inclination in the installation may allow the batteries to move within the chassis. Mounting Location The panel must be positioned in an accessible location, at an accessible height, allowing sufficient space around the installation for user operation and maintenance. Mounting Hardware Use suitable mounting hardware for the mounting surface and the panel weight. Screws with head diameters between 7mm and 10mm must be used to correctly fit the panel mounting holes. Chassis Entry Any openings made in the chassis must be suitable to maintain the product’s stated Ingress Protection (IP) rating. Chassis Load Rating The panel can support loads of up to 10kg in the standard chassis, and up to 20kg in the extended chassis. Batteries must be placed flat to the bottom of the enclosure and positioned symmetrically.
