USER MANUAL 400 Plug&Play 400w SIRIUS

General Safety Please read this manual carefully before installation. You need to install ONLY according to the instructions in this manual. Keep this instruction manual carefully. An improper use may cause lethal hazards for the operator or third parties, or may result in damage to the units and other property. The solar kit components are designed to be assembled together according to the instructions in the installation guide to produce electricity for the domestic grid. Any other use is improper and therefore potentially dangerous. The solar kit must be connected to a safe electrical installation. If you have any doubts about the electrical connection, please contact consult qualified service personnel. Failure may result in electrical hazards to people and property. Make sure that your existing electrical net work is suitable for using this solar system. Make sure that the electrical circuit to which the socket is connected is protected upstream in the electrical panel by a differential switch and a circuit breaker or by a differential circuit breaker. Make sure that the building structure (railing, wall, façade, support...) where this solar kit will be mounted can bear the weight load. Do NOT install the solar kit on the house roof. Make sure that the power socket this solar kit connects to is properly grounded. We recommend that the solar panel is grounded as well, to avoid potential damages in thunderstorms, consult a licensed electrician for such. The solar kit must be connected to an earthed main supply ONLY. Be careful not to plug the solar kit into a controlled socket, as this may cause it to disconnect regulariy. Do NOT connect the solar kit to a power strip. Disconnect from the plug before handling the other cables in the solar kit. Before each use, make sure that the cables are in perfect condition. Do NOT operate with à damage cables. Do NOT pull on the cables excessively (risk of damage). Carefully remove the unit from its packaging and inspect for external damage. If you find any imperfections, please contact your local dealer.

DANGER: When a photovoltaic panel is exposed to light, it generates a voltage. Energy stored in this

equipment's capacitors presents a risk of electric shock. Even after the unit is disconnected from the grid and photovoltaic panels, high voltages may still exist inside the PV-Inverter. Do not remove the casing until at least 5 minutes after disconnecting all power sources. Keep children and unauthorized people out of the system photovoltaic. People who have reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or by those whose knowledge or experience is limited may only use following proper instruction and under constant supervision. Children are forbidden to play with. Do NOT attempt to repair problems yourself (e.g. broken glass cables). Please contact à qualified service personnel, an authorized installer or customer service

WARNING: Risk of burns due to hot parts. Some parts and surfaces are still hot during operation. To

reduce the risk of injury, do not touch the active parts during operation Periodically check this solar kit to make sure that all electrical connection is tight and secure. Also check the mountings (bolts, connections.) are tight and secured. Inspections must first be carried out after exceptional events (e.g. storm, hail, high snow load, etc.) but also regularly. During these inspections, it should be verified whether the components are safe, intact and clean. ONLY clean modules that have been cooled. Do NOT clean the modules with water if there is a risk of freezing. Remove dirt with warm water or a soft cloth. Do NOT scratch dirt. Remove snow and ice without force Leave the substructure free of dirt and debris. Do NOT use abrasive detergents; surfactants, scrapers or cleaning equipment with pressurized water. Do NOT use micro-polar wool or cotton cloths. Assembly Warnings Before installation, please check all the components of the solar kit to ensure that there is no transportation or handling damage, which may affect the insulation integrity or safety clearances: otherwise, it may causesafety hazards. Install ONLY undamaged modules and components. Do NOT attempt to modify or diassemble the solar kit components in any manner. Assemble the solar kit ONLY per the instructions in this manual. Mount the inverter in such a way that it cannot be touched inadvertently. The installation location must be freely and safely to get at all times In order to avoid electrical shock or other injury, inspect existing electronic or plumbing installations before screwing the solar kit installation. Use care when choosing solar kit installation location and adhere to specified cooling requirements. Never install solar kit in environment of little or no air flow, nor dust environment. That may derate the efficiency of the cooling. Do NOT install solar kit on easily flammable materials and where flammable materials are stored. Do NOT install solar kit on structures constructed of flammable or thermolabile materials. Do NOT install solar kit in close proximity to condiotioned air systems Do NOT mount wall brackets on residential roofs. The brackets are not designed and certified for this type of use. Mount wall brackets on a sturdy wall to prevent them from being torn off. Do NOT modify the fixings supplied. Do NOT place supports designed for high ground on a flat roof if they are not screwed to the ground. Do NOT use any other fixing method than those recommended in the installation guide. Falling equipment can cause serious or even fatal injury, never mount the unit on the bracket unless you are sure that the mounting frame is really firmly mounted, after carefully checking. When installing photovoltaic modules during the day, use opaque materials to cover the photovoltaic modules, otherwise the voltage at the module terminals will be high in the sun, which may cause danger. Do NOT install solar kit in windy or wet weather. Use ONLY dry, insulated tools. Do NOT operate with wet hands.

In order to minimize the potential of à shock hazard due to hazardous voltages, cover the entire solar array with dark material prior to connecting the array to any equipment.

WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Unauthorized removal of necessary protections, improper use,

incorrect installation and operation may lead to serious safety and shock hazards and/or equipment damage.

WARNING: Danger to life due to fire or explosion: electrical devices can cause fires.

Do NOT install damaged modules. Do NOT install modules inside. Do NOT install modules on moving objects. Never step on the modules. Do NOT subject the modules to mechanical stresses. Do NOT drop objects on modules. Do NOT drop modules. Never lift or move the module through the connection cables or inverter. Do NOT put any things on the inverter or the modules. Do NOT cover the inverter or the modules. Do NOT move the installation during operation. Under special circumstances, the inverter may be subject to electromagnetic interference from surrounding equipment. At this time, the user is obliged to take correct measures to reduce the interference from surrounding equipment to the inverter. © Never install the inverter near the sensitive equipment (e.g. Radios, telephone, television, etc). © Do not stay closer than 20 cm to the inverter for any length of time. Electrical Warnings Allelectrical installations must comply with local electrical safety standards. Do NOT open the casing. Do NOT attempt to repair, consult qualified service personnel. All wiring and electrical installation must be performed by qualified service personnel. Improper operation during the wiring process can cause fatal injury to operator or unrecoverable damage. ONLY qualified personnel can perform the wiring work. Touching live components can result in serious injury or death. Electrical installation, repairs and conversions may only be carried out by electrically qualified persons.

WARNING: Danger to life due to high voltages. Forbid installation in live line.

Do NOT touch damaged components. Excessive voltage can damage the solar kit. Do NOT disconnect the solar kit under load. Do NOT disconnect the loaded cables. Isolate all exposed cable ends. Only connect cables with connectors Make sure all electrical components are in a clean state, dry and secure Make sure the cabling is not under tension Ensure wiring is not exposed and/or hanging and is protected from dirt and mould Ensure all connectors are sealed and secure during operation.
