Product Usage Instructions

Intended Use

The eco solar boost – Green Boost 3000/3000T (DC 1210-350V) is designed to power heating devices such as boilers, heaters, electric heaters, or heating mats directly from PV panels. Ensure the total power of the panels connected does not exceed 5kW.

Installation

To connect the PV panels to the inverter, use suitable PV\ installation cables with a cross-section not less than 4mm. Ensure\ proper air circulation around the inverter and avoid covering ventilation holes to prevent overheating. Mount the inverter\ vertically on nonflammable surfaces for improved heat dissipation.

Maintenance

Regularly check for dust accumulation on the inverter’s surface and clean it using a soft, dry cloth. Ensure all connections are secure and free from damage.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Q: Can I connect more than 9 PV panels to the inverter?
    • A: No, the inverter is designed to work optimally with 4 to 9 typical PV panels. Exceeding this limit may cause performance issues.
  • Q: What should I do if the inverter overheats?
    • A: If the inverter overheats, immediately disconnect it from the power source and allow it to cool down before attempting to use it again.
  • Q: How do I know if the inverter is operating in STABLE or MPPT\ mode?
    • A: The mode of operation is indicated by the LED display on the inverter. STABLE mode maintains a constant output voltage of\ 230VAC, while MPPT mode allows voltage oscillation between 120-245VAC based on solar panel power.

INTENDED USE

The eco solar boost – Green Boost 3000/3000T (DC 1210-350V) is designed to power heating devices such as boilers, heaters, electric heaters or heating mats directly from PV panels. The system requires: 4 to 9 typical PV panels (250W – 400W) connected in series, with a total voltage from 120V to 350V. Our inverter is equipped with internal maximum power protection of 3kW. However, the total power of the panels connected to the inverter should not be higher than 5kW.
Green Boost 3000/3000T (DC 1210-350V) allows to connect two heating devices (e.g. two boilers). One will be heated first and the second one will be heated only, if the thermostat of the first one stops receiving energy from the inverter.This ensures that energy from the PV panels will not be lost when one of the units reaches a set temperature.

In STABLE mode – The output voltage is 230VAC (50Hz) and it is maintained if the power from solar panel is sufficient. If the power from the panels is too low, the output voltage will not be 230VAC. In MPPT mode – The output voltage can oscillate between 120-245VAC (50Hz). When the power from solar panels is low, the output voltage is still from 120V AC.

INSTALLATION

To connect the PV panels to the inverter, use suitable PV installation cables with a cross section not less than 4mm. Using wires that are too thin will cause heating up and a voltage decreasing at the inverter input. In extreme cases it can cause a fire. The inverter requires unobstructed air circulation for proper operation. Do not, under any circumstances, cover the ventilation holes as this may be a direct cause of overheating and damage of the device. To improve heat dissipation and for your own safety, we suggest to screw the inverter vertically to nonflammable surfaces (concrete, metal).

SAFETY

Connecting Solar Panels

Cable Requirements:

  • Use appropriate PV installation cables to connect the panels to the inverter.
  • Cable cross-section should not be smaller than 4mm².

Using excessively thin cables will cause:

  • Heating
  • Voltage drop at the inverter input

In extreme cases, this can lead to:

  • System losses
  • Fire

Ventilation

  • Ensure unrestricted airflow for proper inverter operation.
  • Do not cover the ventilation openings on the housing.
  • This could cause overheating and damage to the device.

Mounting

The recommended mounting position for the inverter is vertical. Mount the device to non-combustible surfaces such as concrete or metal.

Safety Precautions

The solar inverter produces hazardous output voltage.This can cause fire or electric shock.When using the inverter, follow general safety guidelines for 230V devices. Residual Voltage Even after disconnecting the power supply, high voltage may remain on the power terminals and internal components for several seconds.

Authorized Service

Any repairs must be carried out by an authorized service center.

Prohibited Uses

Do not use the inverter in high humidity environments.Do not expose the inverter to direct sunlight, fire, or flammable substances.In case of water contact, immediately turn off the device.Do not short-circuit the inverter output or connect a load exceeding the permissible continuous load. Overloading the inverter can damage it.In case of fire, use a fire extinguisher suitable for extinguishing electrical devices under voltage.

AC Output Connection

Under no circumstances should the AC outputs of the Green Boost inverter be connected to a new or existing power grid.

CONNECTION

The polarity of the supply voltage is very important while connecting PV panels to inverter. The reverse wiring will cause damage to the inverter and void the warranty! \The eco solar boost – Green Boost 3000 (DC 1210-350V) has two MC4 connectors which must be connected to the PV installation. The connector shaped should be connected to the negative pole of the PV installation and the connector shaped should be connected to the positive pole of the PV installation. ADC safety switch, designed for such installations, shall be installed on the PV system power cord.

For the GREEN BOOST 3000T model, the sockets have been replaced with a terminal strip.This means that instead of individual sockets, the inverter has a terminal strip with multiple connection points. This allows for more flexibility and easier wiring when connecting the inverter to your electrical system.Here are some additional details about the terminal strip:The terminal strip has multiple \connection points for AC output, DC input, and grounding.Each connection point is clearly labeled and has a corresponding color-coded wire for easy identification.

We connect device e.g. an electric boiler to the inverter output marked – “1”. When the inverter detects the presence of voltage from the PV panels within the appropriate range, the inverter will automatically turn on. This will be confirmed by the LED indicator. Optionally, a second energy consumer can be connected to the inverter output marked “2”. This can works only with a bi- metal thermostat. Electronic temperature controllers can only work with an output “1”. Lack of activities on both outputs for a long time will cause a delay of load sense on output up to several minutes. The eco solar boost inverter Green Boost is equipped with two power outputs – type E (labelled “1” and “2)”. After connecting the correct supply voltage from the solar power system (120-350V ), the inverter checks the presence of connected receivers. For the GREEN BOOST 3000T model, the sockets have been replaced with a terminal strip.This means that instead of individual sockets, the inverter has a terminal strip with multiple connection points. This allows for more flexibility and easier wiring when connecting the inverter to your electrical system. In the case of connecting two resistance receivers, firstly, the device connected to the socket “1” will be powered. When the device stops consuming energy, the eco solar boost inverter Green Boost 3000 (DC 1210-350V will switch to power socket “2”. However, if the load on socket “1” reappears, the inverter it will automatically cut the power supply tooutput “2” and start to power outputs “1”.

  • SOLAR STATUS – When the PV voltage is greater than 80% of the rated \voltage of the device, the indicator lamp will be lit. Otherwise, it will blink.
  • OUTPUT PRIMARY – It lights when socket 1 is working
  • OUTPUT SECONDARY – It lights when socket 2 is working
  • PV VOLTAGE – Actual PV input voltage
  • PV CURRENT – Actual PV input current
  • OUTPUT VOLTAGE – Output voltage status, shows the actual output voltage current of the inverter
  • MPPT MODE – It lights when the MPPT mode is on
  • OVER HEAT – It lights when the inverter is overheated
  • SYSTEM FAULT – It lights when the PV voltage is too high or the inverter does not work properly (continuous light) or warns of overload.
