Important Safety Instructions
viii 975-0053-01-01
• Do not expose this unit to rain, snow or liquids of any type without
the Rain Shield installed. The Rain Shield does not, however, make
the Sun Tie XR waterproof.
• To reduce the chance of short circuits when installing or working with
the inverter or the PV array, use insulated tools.
• Remove all jewelry such as rings, bracelets, wristwatches and
necklaces prior to installing this system. This will greatly reduce the
chance of accidental exposure to live circuits.
• The Sun Tie XR contains more than one live circuit (the PV array and
the AC line). Power may be present at more than one source even
when the circuit breakers are off.
• This product contains no user-serviceable parts. Return the unit to
Xantrex for maintenance.
• Wiring to the utility should only be done after receiving prior
approval from the utility company and performed only by a qualified
electrician.
• Completely cover the surface of all PV arrays with an opaque (dark)
material before wiring them. PV arrays produce electrical energy
when exposed to light and could create a hazardous condition.
