Optional Heat Sink Cover and Fan

In areas where high ambient temperatures (>45

°

C/110

°

F) may be experienced

(such a south-facing installation), a heat sink cover and fan assembly (GT Fan Kit,
Xantrex part # 864-0201) can be added to the front of the unit. The fan assembly
provides forced-air ventilation directly over the heat sink. The heat sink cover
shades the heat sink from direct sunlight and provides a pathway to funnel the
forced-air from the fans over the heat sink to optimize cooling.

WARNING: Burn hazard

In extreme conditions, the GT Inverter chassis can reach temperatures over 70°C (158°F),
which can cause skin burns if accidentally touched. Ensure that the GT Inverter is located
away from normal traffic areas.
See Figure 1-3 on page 1–5 for safety label location.
