Warning! Before installing a collector or repeater, ensure that the selected location
can support the weight of the collector or repeater, mounting hardware, solar panels,
and batteries. A thorough structural analysis should be performed by a registered
professional engineer at your desired location prior to installation. Itron is not
responsible for improper installations or for installations, at a site that cannot
adequately support the collector or repeater.
Because of the size and weight of the solar system, Itron recommends more than one person is
present for the installation.
