4. Configuración e instalación

4.1 Sistema superadoview

The hybrid power system integrates solar power, a generator or utility grid, and a battery to supply power to home appliances. The inverter manages the power flow between these sources.

4.2 Conexión da batería

The inverter is compatible with AGM, GEL, Flooded Lead-Acid, and Lithium batteries. For Lithium batteries, settings may need to be configured via the "User-Defined" option. Always use a circuit breaker between the battery and the inverter.

4.3 AC Output Considerations

This inverter provides a single-phase 230V AC output. It does not provide 110V AC output directly. For 110V/120V US home appliances, a step-down converter (not included) is required to convert the 220V/240V AC power to 110V/120V AC power.

5. Instrucións de funcionamento

5.1 Modos de carga

The inverter supports four charging modes:

  • Utilidade primeiro: Prioriza a enerxía da rede pública para a carga.
  • Solar Primeiro: Prioriza a enerxía solar para a carga.
  • Solar e servizos públicos: Usa tanto enerxía solar como de servizos públicos para cargar.
  • Battery & Solar: Charges from both battery and solar sources.

5.2 Modos de saída

The inverter offers three output priority modes:

  • Prioridade fotovoltaica: A enerxía solar é a principal fonte de cargas.
  • Prioridade de servizos públicos: A enerxía eléctrica é a fonte principal para as cargas.
  • Prioridade SBU (Energía solar-Batería-Servizo público): Primeiro úsase a enerxía solar, despois a enerxía da batería e, finalmente, a enerxía da rede pública como reserva.

5.3 WIFI Communication (Optional)

An optional WIFI module allows monitoring the inverter's working status and adjusting parameters remotely via a mobile phone application. The WIFI module is not included in the standard package.

6. Mantemento

Un mantemento regular garante a lonxevidade e o rendemento óptimo do inversor. Desconecte sempre todas as fontes de alimentación antes de realizar calquera mantemento.

  • Limpeza: Keep the inverter's ventilation openings clear of dust and debris to ensure proper airflow. Use a dry cloth to clean the exterior.
  • Conexións: Comprobe periodicamente todas as conexións eléctricas para comprobar se están ben apertadas e se presentan signos de corrosión.
  • Ambiente: Asegúrese de que o ambiente de instalación se manteña dentro dos rangos de temperatura e humidade de funcionamento especificados.

7 Solución de problemas

Esta sección aborda problemas comúns e as súas posibles solucións.

  • Erro de configuración: If a setting error occurs, use the one-click restore function to revert to default settings. This can prevent potential machine damage.
  • Specific Setting Behavior: Note that if item 37 is set to "hyd" (hybrid mode), item 01 will revert to SUB (Solar-Utility-Battery) mode instead of SBU (Solar-Battery-Utility) mode. This is expected behavior for this specific configuration.
