Page 6: Introduction
Figure 1 DC- and AC-/ Hybrid-coupled Storage System - Scheme CAUTION: For the AC-/ Hybrid-coupled system, unlike DC, two power meters are to be mounted. MA1-INV is only to be connected with MA1-BAT, a LFP battery. No other battery can be connected to MA1-INV. 1.2 General Precautions DANGER Danger to life due to high voltages of the PV array, battery and electric shock.
Page 7 ➢ Do not move the system when it is already connected with battery modules. ➢ Secure the system to prevent tipping with restraining straps in your vehicle. ➢ The transportation of URE MA1-INV must be made by the manufacturer or an instructed personal. These instructions shall be recorded and repeated.
Page 8: Parts List
➢ Lifting and transporting the inverter and battery must be carried out by more than 2 people. 1.3 Parts List Check the following parts list to ensure it is complete. URE delivers a total system separately on site to client, this consists of: MA1-INV 1x Mounting 10x M6...

Installation This Manual introduces the basic steps how to install and set up URE MA1-INV. NOTE: please pay attention for unpacking the battery, the worst case is that some components could be damaged. Observe the specified minimum distances to neighboring objects.
Page 15 Figure 7 Unpacking the inverter and battery Step 1: Remove the battery and inverter from the packaging box. Communication wiring baffle Figure 9 Battery with Lid off – Side View Figure 8 Battery with Lid off - Front View Step 2: Open battery housing case and remove communication wiring baffle at the left side.
Page 16 Figure 11 Battery power cable installation diagram Step 4: Close the battery front cover and connect the power cable at the top. NOTE: if there is an “indoor” sign on the top cover, the battery can only be installed indoor. M5*10 Screws Figure 12 Assemble Battery Mounting Panel Step 5: Assemble the battery mounting panel on the battery.
Page 17 Debris Baffle, drill φ8, depth about 70 mm Figure 13 Battery Installation - Drill Holes Step 6: Keep the battery against the wall, drill holes on the wall with an impact drill. NOTE: please make sure a layer of protection must be placed over the battery while drilling, it could be paper, wood board or packaging bubble, as Figure 13 shows）.
Page 18 Figure 14 Battery Installation – Mounting on the Wall Step 7: Remove the debris baffle and secure the battery to the wall with screws. Figure 15 Battery Installation – Second Battery Installation Step 8: Follow Step6 and Step7 to install the second battery. Figure 16 Inverter Mounting Panel Installation Step 9: Install the inverter mounting panel and mounting bracket with M4 nuts as shown above.

Page 20 Figure 18 Cable Box Wiring Diagram Step 11: Remove the cable box front cover, it can be removed by hand without tools. Remove the screw to take off the back cover. Set the front and back covers of cable box aside. Power Cable Network Cable Access Figure 19 Communication and Power Cable Access...
Page 21 Step 13: Lock waterproof connector, plug in the RJ45 plugs on LAN1 and Me- ter’s ends inside cable box, and then plug in RJ45 and cable on the other side of LAN1 and Meter’s ends outside of cable box (leave some length as the other side might need to be connect to router or meter).
Page 22 Figure 21 Inverter Wiring Completion Diagram The single line diagram is as below: NOTE: There must be a 32A AC circuit breaker (Grid switch) between the inverter and the grid. In Australia and New Zealand the neutral of backup and grid circuit should be externally connected on the neutral bar.
Page 23 Figure 22 Network Cable Type B NOTE: The communication cable is in type B, see Figure 22. Leave the power cables and communication cables hang on the outside. Leave the device aside. Figure 23 Inverter Installation on the Wall Step 15: Hang the inverter onto the mounting panels, adjust the entire system and ensure that the battery and the inverter have been securely hung onto the panels and brackets.
Page 24 Figure 24 Wiring the Communication Cable Step 16: Connect the communication cable from cable box from step14 to the battery. Use the communication cable from parts list to connect the two batteries at the side. After all above connections done then lock all communication baffles.
Page 25 Figure 26 Wiring the Power Cable of the Cable Box Step 18: Connect the power cable from Step4 to the terminals of cable box. Make sure that red connects to red and black connects to black. Figure 27 PV Wiring Step 19: Close the battery covers and connect the PV MC4 connectors as shown in the diagram (both sides).
