1.2.3 Statement Warranty Statement Wuxi Wattsonic Energy Technology Ltd. has the right not to undertake quality assurance in any of the following circumstances: 1) Damages caused by improper transportation. 2) Damages caused by incorrect storage, installation or use. 3) Damages caused by installation and use of equipment by non-professionals or untrained personnel.
Note: The system is not suitable for supplying life-sustaining medical devices. It cannot guarantee backup power in all circumstances. The applicable grid types for the Wattsonic WTS-[25-50kW]-100A-3P series are TN-S, TN-C, TN-C-S, and TT. When applied to the TT grid, the voltage of N to PE suggests less than 30V.
2.2 Operation modes Wattsonic WTS Hybrid inverter has the following basic operation modes, and you can configure the operation mode as per your preference in the App. 2.2.1 Running modes introduction General Mode Inverter Loads Battery Grid In this working mode, when the power from the PV array is sufficient, PV power will supply the loads, battery, and grid in the order of loads first, battery second, and grid last.
Page 13
Peak load Shifting (Load Shifting) ≤ Pload Pmax Inverter Loads Battery Grid Set the maximum power Pmax (kVA) contracted with the grid. When the load consumption is less than the Pmax, the PV will charge the battery first, and the grid will supply the load. Once the battery is complete, the PV will power the load and the grid rather than the battery.
