Product Information

This product is an inverter designed for use with PV modules. It is important to note the following information.

Safety Instructions

  1. The contents of this document may be updated due to product upgrades or other reasons. Unless otherwise specified, this document only works as guide. All statements, information and suggestions in this document do not constitute any guarantee.
  2. This product can only be installed, commissioned, operated and maintained by technicians who have carefully read and fully understood the user manual.
  3. This product must only be connected with PV modules of protection class II (in accordance with IEC 61730, application class A). PV modules with a high capacitance to ground must only be used if their capacity does not exceed 1μF. Do not connect any sources of energy other than PV modules to the product.
  4. When exposed to sunlight, the PV modules generate dangerous high DC voltages which is present in the DC cable conductors and live components. Touching live DC cable conductors and live components can result in lethal injuries due to electric shock.
  5. All components must remain within their permitted operating ranges at all times.
  6. The product complies with Electromagnetic compatibility 2014/30/EU, Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU and Radio Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU.

Mounting Environment

  1. Ensure that the inverter is installed out of the reach of children.

  2. To ensure best operating status and prolonged service life, the ambient temperature of the location should be ≤40°C.

  3. To avoid direct sunlight, rain, snow, pooling of water on the inverter, it is suggested to mount the inverter in places which are shaded during the majority of the day or to install an external cover that provides shade for the inverter.
    Do not place a cover directly on top of the inverter.

Inverter Mounting

  • Product updates may occur, and this document serves as a guide.

  • Only trained technicians should install, commission, operate, and maintain this product. The product should only be connected to PV modules of
    protection class II, with a maximum capacitance to ground of 1F.

  • No other energy sources should be connected to the product.

  • PV modules generate high DC voltages when exposed to sunlight, which can be dangerous if touched.

  • All components must operate within their permitted ranges. The product complies with Electromagnetic Compatibility, Low Voltage, and Radio Equipment Directives.

  1. Use a Φ10mm bit to drill 2 holes at a depth of about 70mm according to the location of the wall mounting bracket. (Figure A)
  2. Insert the wall plugs into the wall and fix the mounting bracket to the wall by inserting two
  3. Screws(SW10). (Figure B)
  4. Push the inverter to wall bracket and hook it. Ensure the two right- and left-hand keys on the outer ribs of the inverter must be hooked into the respective keyways in the wall mounting bracket. (Figure C)
  5.  Ensure that the inverter is securely in place, then secure the inverter to the mounting bracket on both sides using two M5 screws. Screwdrivertype:PH2, torque:2.5Nm. (Figure D)

AC Connection

  • All electrical installations must be done in accordance with all local and national rules.
  • Ensure that all DC switches and AC circuit breakers have been disconnected and all power sources have been electrically isolated before any electrical terminations have been made. High voltages produced by the inverter may lead to electrical shock.
  • In accordance with safety regulations, the inverter needs be correctly grounded. When a poor ground connection (PE) occurs, the inverter will report PE grounding error.
  • Please check and ensure that the inverter is grounded firmly or contact Sol planet service.
  1. Firstly, you can connect a second protective conductor as equipotential bonding.
