INGECON SUN STORAGE 1Play 1 INGECON SUN STORAGE 1Play The INGECON SUN STORAGE 1Play (hereinafter, ISS 1Play) is a dual DC input (photovoltaic and battery) single-phase inverter capable of working in stand-alone or grid-connected mode. This equipment can be used...
INGECON SUN STORAGE 1Play 2 Accessories 2.1 INGECON SUN EMS Board The INGECON SUN EMS Board is a control and communications device that could be connected to the ISS 1Play (EMS – Energy Management System). Figure 3: INGECON SUN EMS Board This manages the energy flows of the installation based on the reading of a wattmeter located at the connection point, which sends operating orders to the different inverters.
INGECON SUN STORAGE 1Play 2.2 Wi-Fi communications kit The Wi-Fi communications board is a device that could be connected to the ISS 1Play or in additional INGECON SUN photovoltaic inverters connected to the installation to provide a wireless network interface.
To monitor this installation, an additional kit for Ethernet or Wi-Fi communications is required. Although the INGECON SUN STORAGE 1Play provides an extra current during load connection transients such as motors, INGETEAM recommends the use of frequency drives with this type of load to avoid transient voltage drops (2-3 seconds) during their connection.

INGECON SUN STORAGE 1Play Operating mode The ISS 1Play manages the energy flows in the installation in line with the following principles: Photovoltaic energy is used as a priority to supply loads and to charge the battery. If the photovoltaic energy is insufficient to power loads, the battery provides the remainder.
To monitor this installation, an additional kit for Ethernet or Wi-Fi communications is required. Although the INGECON SUN STORAGE 1Play provides an extra current during load connection transients such as motors, INGETEAM recommends the use of frequency drives with this type of load for the installation to work properly in UPS mode.

INGECON SUN STORAGE 1Play Operating mode The INGECON SUN EMS Board manages the energy flows in the installation in line with the following principles: Photovoltaic energy is used as a priority to supply loads and to charge the battery. Grid supply of photovoltaic surplus is user configurable.
INGECON SUN STORAGE 1Play 3.3.2 Self-consumption installations managed by INGECON SUN EMS Board according to RD900/2015 A self-consumption installation according to RD900/2015 is an interconnected system that minimizes energy consumption from the grid and meets the requirements described in said regulation, which highlights the need to install a dedicated power meter to monitor renewable.
INGECON SUN STORAGE 1Play 3.3.3 Self-consumption installations managed by INGECON SUN STORAGE 1Play A self-consumption installation is a system connected to the grid that seeks to minimize grid consumption and to increase self-supply. To do so, it is fitted with photovoltaic generation and storage components.
