Appendix 3: Circuitry Scheme ..............................36 Please record the Sigineer Power unit’s model and serial number in case you need to provide this information in the future. It is much easier to record this information now than try to gather it after the unit has been installed.
All wires should be copper conductors. 1.1 General Safety Precautions 1.1.1 Before installing and using the Sigineer Power Pure Sine Wave Inverter/Charger, read the manual and cautionary markings on the Inverter/Charger enclosure. Be sure to read all instructions and cautionary markings for any equipment attached to this unit.
The idle consumption of the Sigineer Power inverter/charger is ultra low, roughly 1.5% of its rated power. Loaded with full linear loads, the maximum THD of the Sigineer Power is 3% at nominal battery voltage and 10% at low battery voltage alarm point.

2.5.2 AC Charger The Sigineer Power pure sine wave inverter/charger is equipped with an active PFC (Power Factor Corrected) multistage battery charger. The PFC feature is used to control the amount of power used to charge the batteries in order to obtain a power factor as close as possible to 1.

48-54Hz for 50Hz (58-64Hz for 60Hz). The Sigineer Power pure sine wave inverter/charger has a very rapid charge current available, and the max charge current can be adjusted from 0%-100% via a liner switch on the DC side of the inverter. This will be helpful if this powerful charger apply charging on a small capacity battery bank.

The de-sulphation charging should not be carried out on batteries with good conditions. For Sigineer Power’s model of APC6024D and APC6048D Inverter chargers, the battery type selector position of “9” is customized with special charging algorithm for lithium battery modules from Tesla Model The algorithm has only Bulk Charging (Constant Current) to charge the battery, when the battery is charged to high voltage alarm, the charger will shut off and inverter goes to battery mode.
Page 11
Warning: The output of these units will be de-rated by about 10% when the battery voltage drops below the nominal cut off of 20V and 40V. For other models, the battery type selector position of “9” is customized with special charging algorithm for Sigineer Power lithium battery packs Model # PSW71512NC...
2.5.4 Power Saver There are two different working statuses for SIGINEER POWER inverter: “Power On” and “Power Off”. When power switch is in “Unit Off” position, the inverter is powered off. When power switch is turned to either “Power Saver Auto” or “Power Saver Off”, the inverter is powered Power saver function is dedicated to conserve battery power when AC power is not or little required by the loads.
50W between Hot1 and Neutral and 200W between Hot 1 and Hot 2. There is no load detection between Hot2 and Neutral. The whole Sigineer Power inverter line is designed with extraordinarily low idle power consumption which is approximately 2.5% of its rated power.
Fault (shutdown Output) after 30 seconds. After tempreture drops to 90º C(194℉), the switch has to be reset to activate the inverter. The Sigineer Power Inverter is with back feeding protection which avoids presenting an AC voltage on the AC input terminal in Invert mode.
www.sigineer.com Whichever first switches from “Unit Off” to “Power saver off” or “Power saver on”, it will power the inverter on. If the commands from the two panels conflict, the inverter will accept command according to the following priority: Power saver on> Power saver off> Power off Only when both panels are turned to “Unit Off”...
2.5.9 FAN Operation For Sigineer Power 1500W-6000W models, there is one multiple controlled DC fan. The DC fan is designed to operate according to the following logic: Condition Enter Condition Leave condition Speed T ≤ 60℃(140℉) HEAT SINK T > 65℃(149℉) 65℃(149℉)≤...

SW5: AC/Battery Priority The Sigineer Power inverter chargers are designed with AC/Battery priority switch (DIP switch #5). Switch the battery priority selector to Position “0” for AC priority mode, Position”1” for battery priority mode.
www.sigineer.com The AC/Battery Priority function can be activated by sliding the switch even when the inverter is in operation. Note: In battery priority mode, when qualified AC inputs for the first time and the battery voltage is below 12.5Vdc (12.5Vdc for 12Vdc, 25Vdc for 24Vdc, 51Vdc for 48Vdc), the inverter will first carry out a cycle of bulk charging and absorb charging, the inverter will not go into float charging mode.
For more detailed technical information, please contact us at info@sigineer.com . 2.5.13 GFCI Outlet For Sigineer Power 1500W to 6000W 120Vac single phase and 120/240Vac split phase models, there is a GFCI (ground-fault circuit interrupter) outlet in the vicinity of the AC terminal block.
www.sigineer.com The GFCI is an electrical safety device that quickly breaks an electrical circuit with leakage current to ground. It is to protect equipment and to reduce the risk of serious harm from an ongoing electric shock. This GFCI is wired in parallel with the AC terminal block and they can output a maximum of nominal power.
This makes it possible for a charger to charge ordinarily. The whole line of Sigineer Power inverters will use AC input power to wake up overdischarged lithium battery by a boost circuitry. When they detect a 0V battery, the charger will output a small current to awaken the lithium batteries.
www.sigineer.com Once the lithium battery voltage is charged back to normal or over nomnal voltage, the charger will proceed with the preset charging settings. 2.5.16 Other Features Low Battery Voltage Recovery Start After low battery voltage shut off (10V for 12V model or 20V for 24V model or 40V for 48V model), the inverter is able to restore to work after the battery voltage recovers to 13.5V/27V/54V(with power switch still in “On”...
