 Introduction

Important Safety Instructions
Danger to life due to high voltage in the inverter! All work must be carried out by qualified electrician. The appliance is not to be used by children or persons with reduced physical
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. Caution! Danger of burn injuries due to hot enclosure parts! During operation, the upper lid of the enclosure and the enclosure body may become hot. Only touch the lower enclosure lid during operation. Caution! Possible damage to health as a result of the effects of radiation! Do not stay closer than 20 cm to inverter for any length of time. Note! Ground the PV generator. Comply with the local requirements for grounding the PV modules and the PV generator. It recommends connecting the generator frame and other electrically conductive surfaces in a manner which ensures continuous conduction and ground these in order to have optimal protection of system and persons. Warning! Ensure input DC voltage sMax. DC voltage. Over voltage may cause permanent damage to inverter or other losses, which will not be included in warranty!

Warning!
Authorized service personnel must disconnect both AC and DC power from inverter before attempting any maintenance or cleaning or working on any circuits connected to inverter.
Risk of electric shock! Accessories only together with the inverter shipment are recommended here.
Otherwise, may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to person. Make sure that existing is in good condition and the wire is not undersized. Do not disassemble any parts of inverter which are not mentioned in installation
guide. It contains no user-serviceable parts. See Warranty for instructions on obtaining services. Attempting to service the inverter yourself may result in a risk of electric shock or fire and will void your warranty. Keep away from flammable, explosive materials to avoid fire disaster. The installation place should be away from humid or corrosive substance. Authorized service personnel must use insulated tools when installing or working with this equipment. PV modules shall have an IEC 61730 class A rating. Never touch either the positive or negative pole of PV connecting device. Strictly prohibit touching both of them at the same time. The unit contains capacitors that remain charged to a potentially lethal voltage after the MAINS, battery and PV supply has been disconnected. Hazardous voltage will present for up to 5 minutes after disconnection from power supply. CAUTION-RISK of electric shock from energy stored in capacitor, Never operate on the inverter couplers, the MAINS cables, Battery cables, PV cables or the PV generator when power is applied. After switching off the PV, battery and Mains, always wait for 5 minutes to let the intermediate circuit capacitors discharge before unplugging DC, battery inplug and MAINS couplers. When accessing the internal circuit of inverter, it is very important to wait 5 minutes before operating the power circuit or demounting the electrolyte capacitors inside device. Do not open the device beforehand since the capacitors require time sufficiently discharge!

Basic Function Hybrid Inverter Series are high quality inverters which can convert solar energy to AC energy and store energy into battery. The inverter can be used to optimize self-consumption, store in the battery for future use or feed in to public grid. Work mode depends on PV energy and user’s preference. It can provide power for emergency use during the grid lost by using the energy from battery and inverter (generated from PV). System Diagram Work Modes Hybrid Inverter provides multiple work modes based on different requirements.

Work modes: Self-Use (with PV connected)
Priority: load >battery>grid This mode applies the area that has low feed-in tariff and high energy price. The power generated from PV will be used to supply the local loads firstly, then to charge the battery. The excess power will be transmitted to the public grid.
Work modes: Self-Use (without PV) When no PV supplied, battery will discharge for local loads firstly, and gird will supply power when the battery capacity is not enough.

Work modes: Peak Shift
Priority: battery>load >grid (when charging) Priority: load >battery>grid (when discharging) This mode applies the area that has electricity price between peak and valley. User can use off-peak electricity to charge the battery. The charging and discharging time can be set flexibly, and it also allows to choose whether charge from the grid or not.

Work modes: BAT Priority
Priority: battery>load >grid This mode applies the area that has frequent power outages. Besides this mode ensures the battery will have enough energy to supply when the grid is off. In this mode battery will be charging forcibly in the setting time and will never be discharged when the grid is on, and it also allows to choose whether charge from the grid or not.
