Five Year Warranty The warranty provided by DELIOS s.r.l. lasts for 5 years from the DSL system purchase date. The warranty conditions are based on the EU Directive 99/44/EC, except for any statutory rights.
Disclaimer All rights related to the contents of this manual are owned by DELIOS s.r.l.. By using this manual, you ac- cept the terms of this disclaimer clause. Every effort has been made by DELIOS s.r.l. to ensure the accu- racy of this manual.
For any queries or problems during the system operation, even if not described herein, please contact qualified staff. The DLS system cannot be modified in any way. DELIOS s.r.l. cannot accept responsibility if the DLS sys- tem is incorrectly installed and shall not be liable for the equipment located upstream or downstream of the system supplied.
Dismantling, Removal and Disposal DELIOS s.r.l. DOES NOT accept responsibility for equipment disposal. The Customer must dispose of po- tentially hazardous substances in compliance with regulations enforced in the country of installation and, in any case, must avoid to cause any type of pollution.
Customer must therefore clearly inform the manufacturer of specific conditions of installation. DELIOS s.r.l. cannot accept responsibility if the DLS system is incor- rectly installed and shall not be liable for other systems located upstream or downstream of the equipment supplied.
DLS 300 / 450 / 600 A first aid kit must be provided. Do not underestimate burns or wounds. Protection from Electric Shock An electric shock can be fatal. Avoid touching internal or external normally live parts whilst the system is powered on.
DLS 300 / 450 / 600 Residual Risks Despite the cautions and the safety systems, some residual risks will still be present, which cannot be re- moved. These risks are listed in the following table, alongside a few recommendations to prevent them.
In addition, the DLS system is able to activate an auxiliary or emer- gency generator to supply further back-up power. For more information, visit our web site www.delios-srl.it All the adjustments and monitoring operations can be carried out on the LCD display (touch screen) located on the front of the DLS.
DLS 300 / 450 / 600 3.2.5 AC BYPASS Switch In the event of system maintenance and/or faults, the AC BYPASS switch located on the DLS allows the safety system to be switched off and disconnected both from the national grid and the residential system it is connected to.
During handling, sudden or fast movements which could create dangerously sway the system must be avoided. Lifting DELIOS s.r.l. normally packs and protects each component by using devices able to ease its transport and handling operations but, generally speaking, these operations must be carried out by staff specialised in loading and unloading components.
DLS 300 / 450 / 600 Do not underestimate the weight of the DLS; check its technical features. Do not move or stop the hanging load above people or things. Do not let it drop or lay with too much force.
DLS 300 / 450 / 600 does not require vertical outlets. • If more multiple DLS systems are installed, a side clearance of 500mm between each system must be provided. • The inverter must be used at a maximum altitude above sea level of 3000m. For altitudes higher than 2000m, because of the air being more rarefied, specific conditions may arise, which must be taken into consideration when choosing the site of installation.
A switch with fault current of at least 100mA is used. DELIOS s.r.l. declares that the construction of the DLS systems does not produce earth leakage direct currents and therefore, in compliance with article 712.413.1.1.1.2 of section 712 of Standard CEI 64-8/7, a type B circuit breaker in compliance with standard IEC 60755/A 2 is not required.

DLS 300 / 450 / 600 Before starting the connection operations, make sure that the DC line switch is disconnected. Before starting the connection operations, make sure that the AC BYPASS line switch is set to on. WARNING: Before removing the connection compartment cover, make sure that the DC line switch is set to off.
The DLS input voltage must NEVER exceed 600V. The DLS input current for each independent input must NEVER exceed: 10 A (DLS 300) Isc = 2x15A 15 A (DLS 450) Isc = 2x20A 20 A (DLS 600) Isc = 2x26A Voltage and current values higher than the values shown can seriously damage the DLS.
DLS 300 / 450 / 600 INPUT CONFIGURATION 1 The unused input should be short-circuited. See the connection diagram of Figure 08. If, on the other hand, the PV array current is higher than the maximum capacity of a single stage of the DLS...
See the connection diagram and illustration of Figure 09. Contact DELIOS s.r.l. technical support service or visit our site delios-srl.it to identify the supported batter- ies. The DLS system can control 48V Lithium-ion batteries. The batteries produce electricity and may cause electric shocks or fires in the event of a short-circuit or incorrect installation.
