The GFX Series inverters can be located outdoors, but OutBack still recommends that they be 
protected from the environment. 

  If protected from the environment, the inverter can mount in any position or orientation.  If exposed to the 

environment, it cannot be placed upside-down to ensure that water will not accumulate under the DC 
cover.  (It can be mounted in any other position or orientation.) 

  For installations where the inverter may be exposed to water spray, the inverter must be mounted either 

with the base down (shelf mounting) or with the AC wiring compartment facing down (wall mounting).  If 
mounted with the base down, water cannot be allowed to accumulate around the inverter’s base.  There is a 
drainage system on the base of the inverter to dispel condensation.  If submerged, water can enter this drain 
and cause failure. 

  The inverter will perform more efficiently in locations offering plenty of air circulation.  The recommended 

minimum clearance is 2 to 4 inches (5 to 10 cm) on all sides of the inverter.

 

  The inverter will function to all of its specifications if operated in a range of 32 °F to 122 °F (0 °C to 50 °C).  

Note that the inverter’s maximum wattage will derate in temperatures above 77 °F (25 °C). 

   The inverter will function, but will not necessarily meet its specifications, if operated in a temperature range 

of –40 °F to 140 °F (–40 °C to 60 °C).  This is also the allowable temperature range for storage.  (The 
specifications are listed in the GFX Series Operator’s Manual.)
