Choosing a Location

The Powerpack Solar 400 should be operated only in
locations that meet the following requirements.

WARNING: Fire or explosion

The Powerpack Solar 400 contains components that tend to
produce arcs or sparks. To prevent fire or explosion, do not operate
the Powerpack Solar 400 in compartments containing other
exposed batteries, flammable materials, or in locations that require
ignition-protected equipment.

Dry

Do not allow water or other liquids to drop or
splash on the Powerpack Solar 400.

Cool

Ambient air temperature should be between 32
and 104ºF (0 and 40ºC) — the cooler the better
within this range.

Ventilated

Leave at least 2" (5 cm) clearance around the
Powerpack Solar 400 for air flow. Ensure that
the ventilation openings are not obstructed.

Safe

Do not operate the unit in the same
compartment with other exposed batteries or
in any compartment capable of storing
flammable liquids like gasoline.

Protected
from battery
gases

Do not operate the unit where it will be
exposed to battery gases. These gases are very
corrosive and prolonged exposure will damage
the Powerpack Solar 400.
