3.3 Battery Connection 3.3.1 Lead-acid Battery Connection User can choose proper capacity lead acid battery with a nominal voltage at 48V for 5KVA You need to choose battery type as “AGM(default) or FLD” 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.
3.3.2 Lithium Battery Connection If choosing lithium battery for 48V Model, you are allowed to use the lithium battery only which have configured. 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
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 36 to choose battery type. There will be 4 options under Program 36.
3.4 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 32A for 3KVA, 50A for 5KVA.
