Page 6: Safety Precautions
Safety Precautions Refer to the Operating Manual There are information of caution, operation and installation, please read and keep this manual. Caution: Risk of Electric Shock Alternating Current (AC) and Direct Current (DC) sources are connected to this device. To prevent risk of electric shock during maintenance or installation, please ensure that all AC and DC connections are disconnected. - Page 7 Caution Must be installed by a competent person Caution Do not stay permanently at a distance of less than 30 cm to this converter. Device generates electromagnetic radiation could be harmful in such a close range. Do not Connect Generator in 0n-grid Mode In this mode, SP VITALITY-S inject power into AC mains, only grid can be connected to AC mains.

Page 10: Hybrid Pv System
Hybrid PV System Glossary 1. Hybrid/Off-grid PV Inverter: 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. Protected Loads: Appliances & devices take AC power from SP VITALITY-S, especially in blackout 5. -
Page 11: Principles Of Operation
Principles of Operation Functions The Hybrid PV system is an intelligent and automatic power manager, it can be On-grid Power Manager In places with grid (utility), SP VITALITY-S can manage the power from PV, grid and battery. For protected loads connected to SP VITALITY-S, during blackout, SP VITALITY-S can supply power to them from PV and/or batteries. -
Page 12: On-Grid Mode- Net Metering
MPPT 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, therefore, no power can be injected to grid. -
Page 13: On-Grid Mode- Self Using
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”. -
Page 14: Power Priority
During the night or when no power from PV, inverter will take power from battery to supply ALL the power demands from “Protected Loads”. To do this, you have to enable the “BAT-> Load” and disable function in settings menu. BAT ->... -
