Please coritact SolaX customer service for further assistance. Please be prepared to describe
the details of your system installation and provide the inverter serial number.
Only quali ed people can do the following work.
In the process of using frequency converter, the manager should
check and maintain the machine regularly. The specific operation
is as follows.

1.Check whether the heat sink is covered with dirt, clean the inverter
and absorb dust if necessary. This work should be performed from
time to time.

2.Check whether the frequency converter indicator is normal,


check whether the frequency converter button is normal, check
whether the frequency converter display is normal.
This inspection should be conducted at least every 6 months.
