Lightning will cause a damage either from a direct strike or from surges due to a
nearby strike.
Induced surges are the most likely cause of lightning damage in majority or installations,
especially in rural areas where electricity is usually provided by long overhead lines.
Surge may be included on both the PV array conduction and the AC cables
leading to the building.
Specialists in lightning protection should be consulted during the end use application.

Installation of SPDs to protect the inverter against mechanical damage and
excessive stress include a surge arrester in case of a building with external
lightning protection system (LPS) when separation distance is kept.

To protect the DC system, surge suppression device (SPD type2) should be fitted
at the inverter end of the DC cabling and at the array located between the
inverter and the PV generator, if the voltage protection level (VP) of the surge
arresters is greater than 1100V, an additional SPD type 3 required for surge protection
for electrical devices.
To protect the AC system, surge suppression devices (SPD type2) should be
fitted at the main incoming point of AC supply (at the consumer’s cutout),
located between the inverter and the meter/distribution system; SPD (test
impulse D1) for signal line according to EN 61632-1.

X1 Series inverter is designed for outdoor installation (IP 65). Ø Preparation

Make sure the installation site meets the following conditions:
Below tools are needed before installation.
Not be exposed to glare.
Not in areas where highly flammable materials are stored.
Not in potential explosive areas.
Not in the cool air directly.
Not near the television antenna or antenna cable.
Not higher than altitude of about 2000m above sea level.
Not in environment of precipitation or humidity(100%) . Installation tools : crimping pliers for binding post , screwdriver, manual
Be sure the ventilation is good enough. wrench and Φ10 driller.
The ambient temperature in the range of -25℃ to +60℃.
The slope of the wall should be within ±5°. Ø Step 1: Unscrew the bracket from the back of the inverter.
The wall hanging the inverter should meet conditions below:
1) Solid brick/concrete, or strength equivalent mounting surface; a) The wall bracket is fixed on the inverter, and the user should remove it
2) Inverter must be supported or strengthened if the wall’s strength isn’t enough(such firstly. (Φ10 driller.torque: 0.8±0.1Nm)
as wooden wall, the wall covered by thick layer of decoration)
Ø Step 2: Screw the wall bracket on the wall
Please avoide direct sunlight, rain exposure, snow laying up during installing and
operating. b) Use the wall bracket as a template to mark the position of the 3 holes
on the wall.
c) Drill holes with driller, make sure the holes are deep enough (at least
50mm) for installation, and then tighten the expansion tubes.
d) Install the expansion tubes in the holes, and tighten them. Then install
the wall bracket by using the expansion screws.(Φ10 driller.torque: 0.8±
0.1Nm)
Ø Available Space Size Ø Step 3: Match the inverter with wall bracket

e) Hang the inverter over the bracket, move the inverter close to it, slightly lay
300mm down the inverter, and make sure the 3 mounting bars on the back are fixed
well with the 3 grooves on the bracket.

7.1 Troubleshooting

This section contains information and procedures for solving possible problems
with X1 series inverters, and provides you with troubleshooting tips to identify
and solve most problems that could occur with the X1 series inverters.
This section will help you narrow down the source of any problems you may
encounter. Please read the following troubleshooting steps.
Check warnings or fault messages on System Control Panel or Fault codes on
the inverter information panel. If a message is displayed, record it before doing
anything further.
Attempt the solution indicated in troubleshooting lists.

● If your inverter's information panel is not displaying a Fault light, check the
following list to make sure that the present state of the installation allows proper
operation of the unit.
— Is the inverter located in a clean, dry, adequately ventilated place?
— Have the DC input breakers been opened?
— Are the cables adequately sized and short enough?
— Are the input and output connections and wiring in good condition?
— Are the configurations settings correct for your particular installation?
— Are the display panel and the communications cable properly
connected and undamaged?

Contact SolaX Customer Service for further assistance. Please be prepared to

describe details of your system installation and provide model and serial number
of the unit.

Troubleshooting Troubleshooting

7.2 Routine Maintenance

Inverters do not need any maintenance or correction in most condition,but if the

inverter often loses power due to overheating,this can be the following reason:
● The cooling fins on the rear of house are coverd by dirts.
Clean the cooling fins with a soft dry cloth or brush if necessary.
Only trained and authorized professional personnel who are familiar with the
requirements of safety was allowed to perform servicing and maintenance work.

► Safety checks
Safety checks should be performed at least every 12 months by manufacturer's
qualified person who has adequate training,kownledge,and practical experience
to perform these tests.The data should be recorded in an equipment log.If the
device is not functioning properly or fails any of test,the device has to be
repaired.For safety check details ,refer to this manual,section 2 Safety instruction
and EC Directives.

►Maintain periodically
Only qualified person may perform the following works.
During the process of using the inverter,the manage person shall examine and
maintain the machine regularly.The concrete operations are follow.
1) Check that if the cooling fins on the rear of house are covered by dirts,
and the machine should be cleaned and absorbed dust when necessary.
This work shall be check time to time.
2) Check that if the indicators of the inverter are in normal state,check if the
keys of the inverter are in normal state,check if the display of the inverter is
normal.This check should be performed at least every 6 months.
3) Check that if the input and output wires are damaged or aged.This check
should be performed at least every 6 months.
4) You should get the inverter panels cleaned and their security checked at
least every 6 months.

 Decommissioning

8 Decommissioning
8.1 Dismantling the Inverter

Disconnect the inverter from DC Input and AC output.

Wait for 5 minutes for de-energizing.
Disconnect communication and optional connection wirings.
Remove the inverter from the bracket.
Remove the bracket if necessary.

WARNING!
Before dismantling the inverter, please be sure to
disconnect the DC switch, and then unplug the PV and AC
cables, otherwise it will lead to an electric shock hazard.

8.2 Packaging

If possible, please pack the inverter with the original packaging.

If it is no longer available, you can also use an equivalent carton that meets the
following requirements.
Suitable for loads more than 30 kg.
With handle.
Can be fully closed.

8.3 Storage and Transportation
