INSTALLATION 1. 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 inside of package: The unit x 1 User manual x 1 2. Preparation Before connecting all wirings, please take off bottom cover by removing two screws as shown below.
Page 8
SUITABLE FOR MOUNTING ON CONCRETE OR OTHER NON-COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE ONLY. Install the unit by screwing three screws. It’s recommended to use M4 or M5 screws. 4. 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.
Page 9
WARNING! All wiring must be performed by a qualified personnel. WARNING! It's very important for system safety and efficient operation to use appropriate cable for battery connection. To reduce risk of injury, please use the proper recommended cable 、stripping length(L2) and tinning length(L1) as below.
Page 10
WARNING: Shock Hazard Installation must be performed with care due to high battery voltage in series. CAUTION!! Do not place anything between the flat part of the inverter terminal Otherwise, overheating may occur. CAUTION!! Do not apply anti-oxidant substance on the terminals before terminals are connected tightly.
Page 11
Remove insulation sleeve 10mm for six conductors. And shorten phase L and neutral conductor N 3mm. Insert AC input wires according to polarities indicated on terminal block and tighten the terminal screws. Be sure to connect PE protective conductor ( )first.
Page 12
Make sure the wires are securely connected. CAUTION: Important Be sure to connect AC wires with correct polarity. If L and N wires are connected reversely, it may cause utility short-circuited when these inverters are worked in parallel operation. CAUTION: Appliances such as air conditioner are required at least 2~3 minutes to restart because it’s required to have enough time to balance refrigerant gas inside of circuits.

The setting range is from 50A to 500A. 4. 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.Equalization also helps to remove sulfate crystals that might have built up on the plates.
Page 27
Equalize charging time and timeout In Equalize stage, the controller will supply power to charge battery as much as possible until battery voltage raises to battery equalization voltage. Then, constant-voltage regulation is applied to maintain battery voltage at the battery equalization voltage.
