This Battery Integration Guide provides general assistance with integrating third-party batteries and Sol-Ark manufactured hybrid inverters. It is not intended to substitute for, or to replace, the guidance or services of trained installers, engineers or other specialists that are responsible for system installation, design, testing and performance.
General Hardware Configuration Sol-Ark 30K-3P-208V and Sol-Ark 60K-3P-480V Sol-Ark 30K-3P-208V and 60K-3P-408V inverters communicate with the battery through two ports, BMS1 and BMS2. Both BMS1 and BMS2 ports can do CANBus communication. The diagram shows the communication board inside the 30K inverter wiring area. Note that only the BMS1 and BMS2 ports are used for battery communications.
(+) and (-) connections. All lithium-ion batteries have defined minimum, nominal, and maximum current output ratings. The full output power of a Sol-Ark inverter can be guaranteed only if the battery output capacity matches the inverter size.
