  • Page 4: Introduction

    Introduction Hybrid Power System This is a multifunctional split-phase output off grid solar inverter, integrated with a MPPT solar charge controller, a low frequency pure sine wave inverter and a UPS function module in one machine, which is perfect for off grid backup power and self-consumption applications. The whole system also need other devices to achieve complete running such as PV modules, generator, or utility grid.

  • Page 6: Installation

    Installation Unpacking and Inspection Before installation, please inspect the unit. Be sure that nothing inside the package is damaged. You should have received the following items in the package: The unit x1 User manual x 1 Communication cable x 1 Preparation Before connecting all wiring, please take off bottom cover by removing eight screws as shown below.
  • Page 7: Battery Connection

    Battery Connection CAUTION: For safety operation and regulation compliance, it‟s requested to install a separate DC over-current protector or disconnect device between battery and inverter. It may not be requested to have a disconnect device in some applications, however, it‟s still requested to have over-current protection installed. Please refer to typical amperage in below table as required fuse or breaker size.
  • Page 8 Lithium battery connection If need to communicate with lithium battery BMS, the inverter protocol should have matched the BMS first. There‟re two connectors on the lithium battery, RJ45 port of BMS and power cable. Please follow below steps to implement lithium battery connection: 1.
  • Page 9 2. LCD setting To connect battery BMS, need to set the battery type as “LI” in Program 05. After set “LI” in Program 05, it will switch to Program 51 to choose communication protocol. You can choose RS485 c ommunication protocol which is from L01 to L50, and you can also choose CAN communication protocol which is from L51 to L99.
  • Page 10: Ac Input/Output Connection

    AC Input/Output Connection CAUTION! ! Before connecting to AC input power source, please install a separate AC breaker between inverter and AC input power source. This will ensure the inverter can be securely disconnected during maintenance and fully protected from over current of AC input. The recommended spec of AC breaker is 40A for 4KW~6KW, 80A for 8KW~12KW. There are two terminal blocks with “IN”...

  • Page 12: Pv Connection

    PV Connection CAUTION: Before connecting to PV modules, please install separately a DC circuit breaker between inverter and PV modules. WARNING! All wiring must be performed by a qualified personnel. WARNING! It'‟ very important for system safety and efficient operation to use appropriate cable for PV module connection.
  • Page 13: Communication Connection

    Communication Connection Please use supplied communication cable to connect to inverter and PC. Follow on-screen instruction to install the monitoring software. For the detailed software operation, please check user manual of software. The monitoring software is downloadable from our website www.ginverter.com. Dry Contact Signal There is one dry contact (3A/250VAC) available on the rear panel.
  • Page 14 AC Charger The inverter is equipped with an active PFC (power factor correction) 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.
  • Page 15 Battery Equalization Equalization function is added into charge controller. It reverses the buildup of negative chemical effects like stratification, a condition where acid concentration is greater at the bottom of the battery than at the top. Equalizationalso helps to remove sulfate crystals that might have built up on the plates. If left unchecked, this condition, called sulfation, will reduce the overall capacity of the battery.
  • Page 16 Power Saver The “Power Saver” function is dedicated to conserve battery power when AC power demand is either minimal or not required at all by the loads. In this mode, the inverter pulses the AC output looking for an AC load (i.e., electrical appliance). Whenever an AC load (greater than 500 watts at 120Vac) is turned on, the inverter recognizes the need for power and automatically starts inverting and output goes to full voltage.

    Operation Power ON/OFF Once the unit has been properly installed and the batteries are connected well, simply press On/Off switch (located on the button of the case) to turn on the unit. Operation and Display Panel The operation and display panel, shown in below chart, is on the front panel of the inverter. It includes three indicators, four function keys and a LCD display, indicating the operating status and input/output power information.
