SP5000 Vitality Eco PV System SP5000 Vitality Eco Glossary 1. SP5000 Vitality Eco: Manager of PV inputs, charging, discharging and load supplying functions 2. PV panels: Receive sunlight and convert it into electricity 3. Battery Bank: Stores energy from mains and PV inputs 4.
Principles of Operation Functions The SP5000 Vitality Eco PV system is an intelligent and automatic power manager, it can be On-grid Power Manager In places with grid (utility), SP5000 Vitality Eco can manage the power from PV, grid and battery. For protected loads connected to SP5000 Vitality Eco, during blackout, SP5000 Vitality Eco can supply power to them from PV and/or batteries.
MPPT INV Grid or Generator CHG/DisCHG This application is suitable for Blackout With utility, but user DO NOT want to use utility or use utility as a backup source In this mode, inverter output is physically separated from grid; there will be no power fed to grid.
INV MPPT CHG/DisCHG This application is suitable for Surplus PV power can be feed to grid and paid. On-grid mode- Self Using In some applications, e.g. grid is weak or feeding grid is not beneficial, surplus power feeding is not encouraged; the PV power is used by their own. This is “Self -Using”.
MPPT INV ->0W CHG/DisCHG To do this, please enable the “BAT-> Load” function is settings menu. Power Priority To Loads The power supplied to loads from different sources follows the priorities. In off-grid mode, it is PV -> Battery -> Mains (AC) In on-grid mode, it is PV -> Mains (AC) -> Battery If Battery ->...
