In addition to what is explained below, the safety and installation information provided in the
installation manual must be read and followed. The technical documentation and the interface
and management software for the product are available at the website.
The device must be used in the manner described in the manual. If this is not the case the
safety devices guaranteed by the inverter might be ineffective.

Transport and handling
Transport of the equipment, especially by road, must be carried out with by suitable ways and means for protecting the
components from violent shocks, humidity, vibration, etc.
Lifting
The means used for lifting must be suitable to bear the weight of the equipment.
Unpacking and checking
The components of the packaging must be disposed on in accordance with the regulations in force in the country of

Environmental checks
- Consult the technical data to check the environmental parameters to be observed
- Installation of the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight must be avoided as it may cause:
1. power limitation phenomena in the inverter (with a resulting decreased energy production by the system)
2. premature wear of the electrical/electromechanical components
3. premature wear of the mechanical components (gaskets) and of the user interface (display)
- Do not install in small closed rooms where air cannot circulate freely
- To avoid overheating, always make sure the flow of air around the inverter is not blocked
- Do not install in places where gases or flammable substances may be present
- Do not install in rooms where people live or where the prolonged presence of people or animals is expected,
because of the noise (about 50dB(A) at 1 m) that the inverter makes during operation
Installations above 2000 metres
On account of the rarefaction of the air (at high altitudes), particular conditions may occur:
- Less efficient cooling and therefore a greater likelihood of the device going into derating because of high internal
temperatures
- Reduction in the dielectric resistance of the air that, in the presence of high operating voltages (DC input), can
create electric arcs (discharges) that can reach the point of damaging the inverter
All installations at altitudes of over 2000 metres must be assessed case by case with the ABB Service
department.

The models of inverter to which this guide refers are available in 3 power ratings: 3.0 kW, 3.6 kW and 4.2 kW.
The only difference in terms of components between the three power levels is the number of input connectors: 2 pairs in PVI-3.0/3.6-TL-OUTD models; 3 (2x MPPT1
and 1x MPPT2) pairs in PVI-4.2-TL-OUTD models. Two types are available for each model: Standard or with DC disconnect switch (Version -S).

Wall/Pole mounting
During installation, do not place the inverter with its front facing towards the ground.
- Position the bracket so that it is perfectly level on the wall and use it as a boring template.
01
- Make the 2 holes required, using a drill with a 10 mm diameter bit. The depth of the holes should be about
70 mm. On the bracket 01 there are 5 holes with which to secure it: just 2 are enough to support the inverter if
installed on stable, robust supports.
- Secure the bracket to the wall
1). Check the stability of the bracket and if necessary use all the fixing points (5) there are on the bracket
- Hook the inverter to the bracket spring corresponding with the insertion point in the bracket on the back of
the inverter (Step 2).
- Proceed to anchor the inverter to the bracket
side (Step 3).

minimum tightening torque of 1.5 Nm.
7.
All versions of the inverter are equipped with two input channels (therefore with double maximum power point tracker MPPT) independent of each other,
which can however be connected in parallel using a single MPPT.
Configuration of independent channels (default configuration)
This configuration involves the use of the two input channels (MPPT) in
independent mode.
This means that the jumpers between the two channels (positive and negative)
of the DC input terminal block
located on the main board must be set to "IND".
Configuration of parallel-connected channels
This configuration uses the two input channels (MPPT) connected in parallel. This means that the jumpers between the two channels (positive and negative)
of the DC input terminal block

Installation position
- Install on a wall or strong structure capable of bearing the weight of the equipment
- Install in safe, easy to reach places
- If possible, install at eye-level so that the display and status LEDs can be seen easily
- Install at a height that considers the heaviness of the equipment
- Install vertically with a maximum inclination of +/- 5°
- Choose a place with enough space around the unit to permit easy installation and
removal of the object from the mounting surfaces; comply with the indicated minimum
distances
- For a multiple installation, position the inverters side by side; if the space available does
not allow this arrangement, position the inverters in a staggered arrangement as shown
in the figure so that heat dissipation is not affected by other inverters
Final installation of the inverter must not compromise access to any disconnection
devices that may be located externally.
Please refer to the warranty terms and conditions available on the website and
evaluate any possible exclusion due to improper installation.
