How to improve the service life of the inverter?

In hot summer, high temperature is also the season when equipment is prone to failure, so how can we effectively reduce failures and improve the service life of equipment? Today we will talk about how to improve the service life of the inverter.

Photovoltaic inverters are electronic products, which are limited by internal electronic components and must have a certain lifespan. The life of the inverter is determined by the quality of the product, the installation and use environment, and the later operation and maintenance. So how to improve the service life of the inverter through correct installation and later operation and maintenance? Let’s take a look at the following points:

1. The TORCHN inverter must be installed in a well-ventilated space to maintain good ventilation with the outside world. If it must be installed in a closed space, air ducts and exhaust fans must be installed, or an air conditioner must be installed. It is strictly forbidden to install the inverter in a closed box.

2. The installation location of the TORCHN inverter should avoid direct sunlight as much as possible. If the inverter is installed outdoors, it is best to install it under the eaves on the back side or under the solar modules. There are eaves or modules above the inverter to block it. If it can only be installed in an open place, it is recommended to install a sunshade and rain cover above the inverter.

3. Whether it is a single installation or multiple installations of the inverter, it must be installed in accordance with the installation space size given by the TORCHN inverter manufacturer to ensure that the inverter has sufficient ventilation and heat dissipation space and operation space for later operation and maintenance.

4. The TORCHN inverter should be installed as far away as possible from high-temperature areas such as boilers, fuel-fired hot air fans, heating pipes, and air-conditioning outdoor units.

5. In places with a lot of dust, because the dirt falls on the radiator, it will affect the function of the radiator. Dust, leaves, sediment and other fine objects may also enter the air duct of the inverter, which will also affect the heat dissipation. affect the service life. In this case, regularly clean the dirt on the inverter or cooling fan to make the inverter have good cooling conditions. 6. Check whether the inverter reports errors in time. If there are errors, find out the reasons in time and eliminate the faults; regularly check whether the wiring is corroded or loose.

Through the above explanation, I believe everyone has learned how to install and maintain their own inverters! You can also contact us for more professional product knowledge and more professional installation guidance!
