Maintenance 8. Maintenance In order to ensure the normal operation of the PV Inverter, please check it regularly at least once every 6 months. Check that all the terminals, screws, cables are securely in place. If there are any damaged parts, please contact a qualified technician to repair it or to replace it with a new spare part. To ensure that no foreign contaminants enter the warm air outlets, please have them cleaned every 6 months by qualified technicians.
Maintenance 1. 2. 3. 4. Figure 8.1.
Maintenance 8.2 Replace a Fan If one of the fans has failed and needs to be replaced, user should remove the 4 screws (circled below) that attach the fan to the fan bracket. Next, pull the fan slightly away from the bracket and disconnect the fan connector located behind the fan bracket. The fan can now be removed and replaced with a new fan. Follow the procedure in reverse to install the new fan. (Figure 8-2 illustrates the replacement of the first fan on the fan bracket.
