Power Storage AC 4.0 and 6.0 are stationary 3-phase
string inverters with integrated battery charger. These
are used as a supplement to store surplus energy in
PV systems.
The stored energy of the battery is converted into grid-
compatible AC power and fed into the house network to
cover the household consumption.
They are not designed for any other application or
connection to other devices.
Any use that differs from or goes beyond the intended
usage is considered misuse. RCT Power GmbH shall
not be liable for any damage resulting from misuse
Any misuse will terminate warranty, guarantee and
general liability of the manufacturer.
