Power Storage DC 8.0 and 10.0 are stationary 3-phase string
inverters with integrated battery charger. They convert direct
current (DC) supplied by the PV array and the battery into
alternating current (AC), which can be fed into the electricity
grid.
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.
