Important Safety Information

WARNING!
This manual contains important instructions for all LFP Inverter/Charger models that shall be followed during the installation and maintenance of the inverter.

General Safety Precautions

  • Do not expose the Inverter to rain, snow, spray, bilge or dust. To reduce risk of hazard, do not cover or obstruct the ventilation openings. Do not install the Inverter in a zero-clearance compartment. Overheating may result. Allow at least 30CM(11.81 inches) of clearance around the inverter for air flow. Make sure that the air can circulate freely around the unit. A minimum air flow of 145CFM is required.

  • To avoid a risk of fire and electronic shock. Make sure that existing wiring is in good
    electrical condition, and that wire size is not undersized. Do not operate the Inverter with
    damaged or substandard wiring.

  • This equipment contains components that can produce arcs or sparks. To prevent fire or explosion do not install in compartments containing batteries or flammable materials or in locations that require ignition-protected equipment. This includes any space containing gasoline-powered machinery, fuel tanks, or joints, fittings, or other connections between components of the fuel system.
    See Warranty for instructions on obtaining service.

  • Do not disassemble the Inverter/Charger. It contains no user-serviceable parts. Attempting to service the Inverter/Charger yourself may result in a risk of electrical shock or fire. Internal capacitors remain charged after all power is disconnected.

  • To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect both AC and DC power from the
    Inverter/Charger before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Turning off controls will not
    reduce this risk
    CAUTION: Equipment damage
    The output side of the inverter’s AC wiring should at no time be connected to public power or a generator. This condition is far worse than a short circuit. If the unit survives this condition, it will shut down until corrections are made.
    Installation should ensure that the inverter’s AC output is, at no time, connected to its AC input. Warning: Limitations On Use
    SPECIFICALLY, PLEASE NOTE THAT THE LFP SERIES INVERTER/CHARGER SHOULD NOT BE USED IN CONNECTION WITH LIFE SUPPORT SYSTEMS OR OTHER MEDICAL EQUIPMENT OR DEVICES.

Precautions When Working with Batteries

  • If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If acid
    enters eye, immediately flood eye with running cold water for at least 20 minutes and get medical attention immediately.

  • Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of the battery or engine.

  • Do not drop a metal tool on the battery. The resulting spark or short-circuit on the battery of another electrical part may cause an explosion.

  • Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid battery produces a short-circuit current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, causing a severe burn.

  • To reduce the risk of injury, charge only rechargeable batteries such as deep-cycle lead acid, lead-antimony, lead calcium gel cell, absorbed mat, NiCad/NiFe or Lithium battery. Other types of batteries may burst, causing personal injury and damage.

Introduction

General Information
This Series Pure Sine Wave Inverter is a combination of an inverter, battery charger and AC auto-transfer switch into one complete system with a peak conversion efficiency of 88%. It is packed with unique features and it is one of the most advanced inverters/chargers in the market today. It features power factor corrected, sophisticated multi-stage charging and pure sine wave output with unprecedentedly high surge capability to meet the demanding power needs of inductive loads without endangering the equipment.

For the regular model, when utility AC power cuts off(or falls out of acceptable range), the transfer relay is de-energized and the load is automatically transferred to the Inverter output. Once the qualified AC utility is restored, the relay is energized and the load is automatically reconnected to AC utility.
The LFP Series Inverter is equipped with a powerful charger of up to110Amps (depending on model).

The overload capacity is 300% of continuous output for up to 20 seconds to reliably support tools and equipment longer Another important feature is that the inverter can be easily customized to Battery priority via a DIP switch, this helps to extract maximum power from batteries in renewable energy systems.
Thus, the LFP Series Pure Sine Wave Inverter is suitable for Renewable energy systems, utilities, RV, Marin, and Emergency appliances.

Electrical Performance

AC Charger
LFP Series is equipped with an active PFC (Power Factor Corrected) multistage battery charger. The PFC feature is used to control the amount of power used to charge the batteries in order to obtain a power factor as close as possible to 1.
Unlike other inverters whose max charging current decreases according to the input AC voltage, LFP series charger is able to output max current as long as input AC voltage is in the range of 164-243VAC (95-127VAC for 120V model), and AC freq is in the range of 48-54Hz(58-64Hz for 60Hz model).

The LFP series inverter is with a strong charging current of 120Amp (for 4KW,12V), and the max charge current can be adjusted from 0%-100% via a liner switch at the right of the battery type selector. This will be helpful if you are using our powerful charger on a small capacity battery bank. Fortunately, the liner switch can effectively reduce the max charging current to 20% of its peak.
Choosing “0” in the battery type selector will disable the charging function.

There are mainly 3 stages:

Bulk Charging: This is the initial stage of charging. While Bulk Charging, the charger supplies the battery with a controlled constant current. The charger will remain in Bulk charge until the Absorption charge voltage (determined by the Battery Type selection) is achieved.
The software timer will measure the time from A/C start until the battery charger reaches 0.3V below the boost voltage,
then take this time asT0 and T0×2 = T1.
Absorb Charging: This is the second charging stage and begins after the absorb voltage has been reached. Absorb Charging provides the batteries with a constant voltage and reduces the DC charging current in order to maintain the absorb voltage setting.
In this period, the inverter will start a T1 timer; the charger will keep the boost voltage in Boost CVmode until the T1 timer has run out. Then drop the voltage down to the float voltage. The timer has a minimum time of 1 hour and a maximum time of 12 hours.
Float Charging: The third charging stage occurs at the end of the Absorb Charging time. While Float charging, the charge voltage is reduced to the fl oat charge voltage (determined by the Battery Type selection*). In this stage, the batteries are kept fully charged and ready if needed by the inverter.
If the A/C is reconnected or the battery voltage drops below 12Vdc/24Vdc/48Vdc, the charger will reset the cycle above.
If the charge maintains the floating state for 10 days, the charger will deliberately reset the cycle to protect the battery.

De-sulphation
The de-sulphation cycle on switch position 8 is marked in red because this is a very dangerous setting if you do not know what you are doing. Before ever attempting to use this cycle you must clearly understand what it does and when and how you would use it.
What causes sulphation? This can occur with infrequent use of the batteries(nor), or if the batteries have been left discharged so low that they will not accept a charge. This cycle is a very high voltage charge cycle designed to try to break down the sulfated crust that is preventing the plates from taking a charge and thus allowing the plates to clean up and so accept charge once again.

Charging depleted batteries
The LFP series inverter allows start-up and through power with depleted batteries.
For the 12VDC model, after the battery voltage goes below 10V, if the switch is still (and always) kept in “ON” position, the inverter is always connected with the battery, and the battery voltage does not drop below 2V, the inverter will be able to charge the battery once qualified AC inputs are present.
Before the battery voltage goes below 9VDC, the charging can be activated when the switch is turned to
“Off”, then to “ON”.
When the voltage goes below 9VDC, and you accidentally turn the switch to OFF or disconnect the inverter from a battery, the inverter will not be able to charge the battery once again, because the CPU loses memory during this process.

The charging capacity will go to peak in around 3 seconds. This may cause a generator to drop frequency, making the inverter transfer to battery mode.
It is suggested to gradually put a charging load on the generator by switching the charging switch from min to max, together with the 15s switch delay, our inverter gives the generator enough time to spin up. This will depend on the size of the generator and rate of charge.

Inverter

Topology
The LFP inverter/charger is built according to the following topology.

  • Inverter: Full Bridge Topology.
  • AC Charger: Isolate Boost Topology

Because of high-efficiency Mosfets and 16bit, 4.9MHz microprocessor and heavy transformers, it outputs PURE SINE WAVE AC with an average THD of 10% (Min5%, Max 15%) depending of load connected and battery voltage. The peak efficiency of LFP series is 88%.

Overload Capacity
The LFP series inverters have different overload capacities, making it ideal to handle demanding loads. 1 For 110%<Load<125%(±10%), no audible alarm in 14 minutes, beeps 0.5s every 1s in the 15th minute, and Fault(Turn off) after the 15th minute.
2 For 125%<Load<150%(±10%), beeps 0.5s every 1s and Fault(Turn off) after the 1 minute.
3 For 300%≧Load>150%(±10%), beeps 0.5s every 1s and Fault(Turn off) after 20s.

Auto frequency adjust
The inverter is with Auto Frequency adjust function.
The factory default configuration for 220/230/240VAC inverter is 50Hz, and 60Hz for 100/110/120VAC inverter. While the output freq can be easily changed once a qualified freq is applied to the inverter.
If you want to get 60Hz from a 50Hz inverter, just input 60Hz power, and the inverter will automatically adjust the output freq to 60Hz and vice versa.

DIP Switches
On the rear panel of the inverter, there are 5 DIP switches that enable users to customize the performance of the device.

  • SW1: Low Battery Trip Volt:
    For the 12VDC model, the Low Battery Trip Volt is set at 10.0Vdc by a typical deep cycle lead acid battery. It can be customized to 10.5Vdc using SW1 for a sealed car battery, this is to prevent batteries from over-discharging while there is only a small load applied on the inverter. (2 for 24VDC, 4 for 48VDC)

  • SW2:AC Input Range:
    There are different acceptable AC input ranges for different kinds of loads.
    For some relatively sensitive electronic devices, a narrow input range of 184-253VAC (100-135V for 120VAC model) is required to protect them.
    While for some resistive loads which work in a wide voltage range, the input AC range can be customized to 154-253VAC (90-135V for 120VAC model), this helps to power loads with the most AC input power without frequent switches to the battery bank.

  • SW3:Power Saver Auto Setting :
    The inverter is factory defaulted to detect load for 250ms in every 30 seconds. This cycle can be customized to 3 seconds through the SW3 on the DIP switch.

  • SW4: Adjust 50hz/60hz
    The output frequency of the inverter can be set at either 50Hz or 60Hz by SW4.
    Kindly remind: 4000W/12V machine doesn’t have this function.

  • SW5:Solar/AC Priority:
    Our inverter is designed with AC priority by default. This means, when AC input is present, the battery will be charged first, and the inverter will transfer the input AC to power the load. Only when the AC input is stable for a continuous period of 15 days, the inverter will start a battery inverting cycle to protect the battery. After 1 cycle normal charging and ac throughput will be restored.
    The AC Priority and Battery Priority switch is SW5. When you choose battery priority, the inverter will be inverting from the battery despite the AC input. Only when the battery voltage is reached low voltage alarm point(10.5V for 12V), the inverter transfer to AC Input, charge the battery and switch back to the battery when the battery is charged full. This function is mainly for wind/solar systems taking utility power as backup.

Transfer
While in the Standby Mode, the AC input is continually monitored. Whenever AC power falls below the VAC Trip voltage (154 VAC, default setting for 230VAC,90VAC for 120VAC), the inverter automatically transfers back to the Invert Mode with minimum interruption to your appliances – as long as the inverter is turned on. The transfer from Standby mode to Inverter mode occurs in approximately 8 milliseconds. And it is the same time from Inverter mode to Standby mode.
Though it is not designed as a computer UPS system, this transfer time is usually fast enough to keep your equipment powered up.
There is a 15-second delay from the time the inverter senses that continuously qualified AC is present at the input terminals to when the transfer is made. This delay is built in to provide time for a generator to spin up to a stable voltage and avoid relay chattering. The inverter will not transfer to the generator until it has locked onto the generator’s output. This delay is also designed to avoid frequent switching when input utility is unstable.

Power Saver Mode
There are 3 different working statuses for LFP inverters: “Power Saver Auto” 、“Power Saver Off” and “Power Off”.
When the power switch is in the “Unit Off” position, the inverter is powered off.
When the power switch is turned to either of “Power Saver Auto” or “Power Saver Off”, the inverter is powered on.
The power saver function is designed to conserve battery power when AC power is not or rarely required by the loads.

In this mode, the inverter pulses the AC output looking for an AC load (i.e., electrical appliance). Whenever an AC load (greater than 25 watts) is turned on, the inverter recognizes the need for power and automatically starts inverting and the output goes to full voltage. When there is no load (or less than 25 watts) detected, the inverter automatically goes back into search mode to minimize energy consumption from the battery bank. In “Power saver on” mode, the inverter will draw power mainly in sensing moments, thus the idle consumption is significantly reduced.
The inverter is factory defaulted to detect load for 250ms every 30 seconds. This cycle can be customized to 3 seconds turn SW3 on the DIP switch .CUTTING-EDGE-POWER-B08JVCLZ3D-3000W-MPPT-Solar-Generator-Rebel-Inverte-
fig-4

Note: The minimum power of load to take the inverter out of sleep mode (Power Saver On) is 25 Watts.
When in the search sense mode, the green power LED will blink and the inverter will make a ticking sound. At full output voltage, the green power LED will light steadily and the inverter will make a steady humming sound. When the inverter is used as an “uninterruptible” power supply the search sense mode or “Power Saver On” function should be defeated.

Exceptions
Some devices when scanned by the load sensor cannot be detected. Small fluorescent lights are the most common example. (Try altering the plug polarity by turning the plug over.) Some computers and sophisticated electronics have power supplies that do not present a load until line voltage is available. When this occurs, each unit waits for the other to begin. To drive these loads either a small companion load must be used to bring the inverter out of its search mode, or the inverter may be programmed to remain at full output voltage.

Protections
The LFP series inverter is equipped with extensive protection against various harsh situations/faults. These protections include:
AC Input over-voltage protection/AC Input low voltage protection
Low battery alarm/High battery alarm
Over temperature protection/Overload protection
Short Circuit Protection (1s after fault) Back feeding protection

When Over temperature /Over load occurs, after the fault is cleared, the master switch has to be reset to restart the inverter.
The Low batter voltage trip point can be customized from the defaulted value of 10VDC to 10.5VDC thru the SW1 on DIP switch.
The inverter will go to Over temp protection when heat sinks temp. ≥105ºC, and go to Fault (shutdown Output) after 30 seconds. The switch has to be reset to activate the inverter.
The LFP series Inverter has back feeding protection which avoids presenting an AC voltage on the AC input terminal in Invert mode.
After the reason for fault is cleared, the inverter has to be reset to start working.

Automatic Voltage Regulation(Optional)
The automatic voltage regulation function is for full series of LFP Pure Sine Wave Inverter/ Charger except split phase models including LFP 1000W~6000W.
Instead of simply bypassing the input AC to power the loads, the LFP series inverter stabilizes the input AC voltage to a range of 230V/120V±10%.
Connected with batteries, the LFP Series inverter will function as a UPS with max transfer time of 10 ms. With all the unique features our inverter provides, it will bring you long-term trouble free operation beyond your expectation.

Remote control(Optional)

Apart from the switch panel on the front of the inverter, an extra switch panel connected to the RJ11 port at the DC side of the inverter thru a standard telephone cable can also control the operation of the inverter.
If an extra switch panel is connected to the inverter via an anœremote control port, together with the panel on the inverter case, the two panels will be connected and operated in parallel.
Whichever first switches from to Power saver off or Power saver on, it will power the inverter on. If the commands from the two panels conflict, the inverter will accept the command according to the following priority:
Power saver on> Power saver off> Power off
Only when both panels are turned to Unit Off position will the inverter be powered off.
The Max length of the cable is 10 meters.

WARNING
Never cut the telephone cable when the cable is attached to the inverter and battery is connected to the inverter. Even if the inverter is turned off. It will damage the remote PCB inside if the cable is short-circuited during cutting.

FAN Operation
For 1-3KW, there is one multiple-controlled DC fan that starts to work according to the following logic. For 4-6KW 48V, there is two multiple controlled DC fan. For 6KW 24V/4KW 12V, there is one DC fan and one AC fan. The DC fan will work in the same way as the one on 1-3KW, while the AC fan will work once there is AC output from the inverter.
So when the inverter is in power saver mode, the AC fan will work from time to time in response to the pulse sent by the inverter in power saver mode.
The Operation of the DC fan at the DC terminal side is controlled by the following logic (Refer to Table 2.5.10):

Table 2.5.10 OIS Series Fan Operation Logic

Condition Enter condition Leave condition Speed
HEAT SINK TEMPERATURE T ≤ 60℃ T > 65℃ OFF
65℃≤ T <85 ℃ T ≤ 60℃ / T ≥ 85℃ 50%
T > 85℃ T  ≤ 80℃ 100%
CHARGER CURRENT I ≤ 15% I  ≥ 20% OFF
20%< I ≤ 50% I ≤ 15% / I ≥ 50% 50%
I > 50% I  ≤ 40% 100%

LOAD% (INV MODE)

| Load < 30%| Load ≥ 30%| OFF
30% ≤ Load < 50%| Load ≤ 20% / Load ≥ 50%| 50%
Load ≥ 50%| Load ≤ 40%| 100%

Allow at least 30CM of clearance around the inverter for air flow. Make sure that the air can circulate freely around the unit.
Variable speed fan operation is required in invert and charge mode. This is to be implemented in such a way as to ensure high reliability and safe unit and component operating temperatures in an operating ambient temperature up to 50°C.

  • Speed to be controlled in a smooth manner as a function of internal temperature and/or current.
  • Fan should not start/stop suddenly.
  • Fan should run at the minimum speed needed to cool unit.
  • Fan noise level target <60db at a distance of 1m.

Other features
Battery voltage recover start
After low battery voltage shut off (10V for 12V model/20V for 24V model/40V for 48V model), the inverter is able to restore operation after the battery voltage recovers to 13Vdc/26Vdc/52Vdc (with the power switch still in the “On” position). This function helps to save the users extra labor to reactivate the inverter when the low battery voltage returns to an acceptable range in renewable energy systems. The built-in battery charger will automatically reactivate as soon as city/generator ac has been stable for 15 seconds.

WARNING
Never leave the loads unattended, some loads (like a Heater) may cause accidents in such cases.
It is better to shut everything down after low voltage trip than to leave your load on, due to the risk of fire.

Auto Gen Start(optional)
The inverter can be customized to start up a generator when the battery voltage goes low.
When the inverter goes to low battery alarm, it can send a signal to start a generator and turn the generator off after battery charging is finished. (Generator must have auto start function.)
The auto-gen start feature will only work with generators designed to work with this feature. There is an open/close relay that will short-circuit the positive and negative cable from a generator. The input DC voltage can vary, but the Max current the relay can carry is 16Amp.

Conformal Coating
The entire line of inverters have been processed with a conformal coating on the PCB, making it water, rust, and dust-resistant.
While these units are designed to withstand corrosion from the salty air, they are not splashproof

*The reason for the noise from the transformer and/or case

Symptom Possible Cause Recommended Solution
The inverter will not turn on during initial power-up. Batteries are not
connected, loose battery-side connections. Check the batteries and cable

connections. Check the DC fuse and

breaker.

 | Low battery voltage.|
 |  | Charge the battery.
No AC output voltage and no

indicator lights ON.

| Inverter has been manually

transitioned to OFF mode.

| Press the switch to Power saver on

or Power saver off position.

AC output voltage is low and the

the inverter turns loads OFF in a short time.

| ****

Low battery.

| Check the condition of the batteries and recharge if possible.
The charger is inoperative and unit

will not accept AC.

| AC voltage has dropped

Sensitive loads turn off

temporarily when transferring between grid and inverting.

| The inverter’s Low voltage trip voltage

may be too low to sustain certain loads.

| Choose a narrow AC voltage in the

DIP switch, or Install a UPS if possible.

Noise from Transformer/case*| Applying specific loads such as

hair drier

| Remove the loads

If the noise comes from the case.
Normally when loaded with inductive loads, the magnetic field generated by the transformer keeps attracting or releasing the steel case at a specific freq, this may also cause noise.
Reducing the load power or using an inverter with a bigger capacity will normally solve this problem.
The noise will not do any harm to the inverter or the loads.

Warranty

We offer a 1 year limited warranty.
The following cases are not covered under warranty. 1 DC polarity reverse.
The inverter is designed without DC polarity reverse protection. A polarity reverse may severely damage the inverter.
Wrong AC wiring
Operating in a wet environment.
Operating with an undersized generator or generator with an unqualified waveform
