1. About This Manual 1.1 Purpose Thanks for choosing Sunflx’s SF 8000 and SF 10000 Series Solar Storage Inverter. This manual describes the assembly, installation, operation and troubleshooting of this unit. Please read this manual carefully before installations and operations. Keep this manual for future reference.
3. Introduction The Sunflx’s SF Series solar storage inverter is a combination of high frequency inverter, AC charger and high efficiency MPPT solar controller. It adopts DSP control and features high response speed, reliability, and industrial standard through an advanced control algorithm.
AC loads. 5. Solar Storage Inverter: The core energy conversion device of the entire system. The actual application scenario determines the specific system wiring method. 6. Sunflx Cloud APP:WIFI & Bluetooth monitoring APP used for viewing and configuring parameters. www.sunflx.com...
Do not install the inverter in areas with potential explosive hazards. Do not install the inverter with lead-acid batteries in confined spaces. CAUTION Do not install the inverter in direct sunlight. Do not install or use the inverter in a humid environment. www.sunflx.com...
Use a proper copper terminal to crimp a suitable cable for battery. Connect the battery cable to the correct battery terminal. Tighten the cable with a nut using a special tool. 4. Connect all battery packs as below chart if battery need series connection. www.sunflx.com...
2. Remove insulation sleeve 10mm for six conductors. And shorten phase L and neutral conductor N 3 mm. 3. Insert AC input wires according to polarities indicated on terminal block and tighten the terminal screws. Be sure to connect PE protective conductor ( ) first.
