Descriptions of Labels
- CE mark of conformity
- UKCA mark of conformity
- Caution, risk of electric shock
- Read the enclosed documentation
- Additional grounding point
- Do not operate this inverter until it is isolated from mains and on-site PV generation suppliers.
- TUV certification
- Caution, hot surface
- Caution, risk of danger
- Do not dispose of the inverter together with household waste.
- The danger of high voltage. Do not touch live parts for 5 minutes after disconnection from the power sources.
DANGER!
- Lethal danger from electrical shock due to the inverter
- Only operate the inverter when it is technically faultless. Otherwise, electric shock or fire may occur.
- Do not open the enclosure in any case without authorization from SolaX.
- Unauthorized opening will void the warranty and cause lethal danger or serious injury due to electric shock.
DANGER!
- Lethal danger from electrical shock due to the PV
- When exposed to sunlight, high DC voltage will be generated by PV modules. Death or lethal injuries will occur due to electric shock.
- Never touch the positive or negative pole of the PV connecting device. Touching both of them at the same time is prohibited as well.
- Do not ground the positive or negative pole of the PV modules.
- Only qualified personnel can perform the wiring of the PV panels.
WARNING!
- Risk of personnel injury or inverter damage
- During operation, do not touch any parts other than the DC switch and LCD panel of the inverter.
- Never connect or disconnect the AC and DC connectors when the inverter is running.
- Turn off the AC and DC power and disconnect them from the inverter, wait for 5 minutes to fully discharge the voltage before attempting any maintenance, cleaning or working on any circuits connected.
- Make sure that the input DC voltage ≤ Maximum DC input voltage of the inverter.
- Overvoltage may cause permanent damage to the inverter, which is NOT covered by the warranty.
CAUTION!
- Keep children away from the inverter.
- Pay attention to the weight of the inverter. Personal injuries may be caused if not handled properly.
NOTICE!
- If an external RCD is required by local regulations, check which type of RCD is required for relevant electric codes. It is recommended to use a Type-A RCD with a value of 300 mA.
- All the product labels and nameplates on the inverter shall be maintained visible.
Packing List
- Please refer to the actual delivery for the optional accessories.
Installation Site
Installation Carrier
Installation Angle
Installation Space
- The heat dissipation space from inverter to the ground is 50 cm.
- It is recommended to install the inverter more than 100 cm above the ground.
Installation Tools
Additionally Required Materials
Mechanical Installation
PE Connection
GRID, EPS and GEN Connection
- Please refer to the table in Additionally Required Materials to view the recommended wire sizes for GRID, EPS, and GEN.
- It is recommended to use copper wire. Non-triple or non-dual core cables shall be sealed with glue or fireproof mud.
- When using wire sizes of 6 mm² and above, only 2-core wires can be used because the 3-core wire cannot pass through the waterproof terminal. In the case of using a 2-core wire, the PE wire should only be connected to the inverter shell and does not need to be connected to the internal terminals.
- All connection diagrams provided here are based on the use of a 3-core wire, with X1- HYB-3.0-LV serving as an example.
PV Connection
Battery Connection
- If only the battery is connected but the PV, GRID, and GEN are not connected, to start the inverter, press and hold the battery power on button until the screen is on.
- Battery connection for 3.0 kW to 4.0 kW
- Battery connection for 4.6 kW to 6.0 kW
- Battery temperature sensor connection
Communication Connection
- For Communication connection, you can select any port from COM 1, COM 2 and COM3.
- CT/ Meter port connection
CT connection diagram
Meter connection diagram
- If two meters were to be connected in the system, the communication cables of the meters should be connected in parallel, i.e. 485A & 485A, 485B & 485B.
Pin definition for Meter/CT
- Only one of the Meter and CT connections can be selected. The meter cable goes to pin terminals 4 and 5; the CT cable goes to pin terminals 1 and 8; the reserve CT cable goes to pin terminals 3 and 6.
CT/Meter connection steps
- For Communication connection, you can select any port from COM 1, COM 2 and COM3.
- It is recommended to use a CAT5 network cable.
- For the Meter connection, crimp only one RJ45 terminal.
- For a CT connection without an RJ45 connector, there is no need to crimp another RJ45 terminal.
- For CT connection with RJ45 connector, crimp two RJ45 terminals.
