1.1 Important Safety Instructions

Danger!
Danger to life due to high voltages in the inverter!
All work must be carried out by qualified electrician.
The appliance is not to be used by children or persons with reduced physical sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of exrerience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Caution!
Danger of burn injuries due to hot enclosure parts!
During operation, the upper lid of the enclosure and the enclosure body may become hot.
Only touch the lower enclosure lid during operation.

Caution!
Possible damage to health as a result of the effects of radiation!
Do not stay closer than 20 cm to inverter for any length of time.

Note!
Grounding the PV generator.
Comply with the local requirements for grounding the PV modules and the PV generator. It is
recommends connecting the generator frame and other electrically conductive surfaces in a manner
which ensures continuous conduction and ground these in order to have optimal protection of system
and persons.

Warning!
Ensure input DC voltage ≤Max. DC voltage .Over voltage may cause permanent damage to inverter or
other losses, which will not be included in warranty!

Warning！
Authorized service personnel must disconnect both AC and DC power from inverter before attempting
any maintenance or cleaning or working on any circuits connected to inverter.
Risk of electric shock!

Accesories only together with the inverter shipment are recommanded here.Other wise may result in a risk of fire,
electric shock, or injury to person.
Make sure that existing wiring is in good condition and that wire is not undersized.
Do not disassemble any parts of inverter which are not mentioned in installation guide. It contains no user-serviceable
parts. See Warranty for instructions on obtaining service. Attempting to service the inverter yourself may result in a
risk of electric shock or fire and will void your warranty.
Keep away from flammable, explosive materials to avoid fire disaster.
The installation place should be away from humid or corrosive substance.
Authorized service personnel must use insulated tools when installing or working with this equipment.
PV modules shall have an IEC 61730 class A rating.
Never touch either the positive or negative pole of PV connecting device. Strictly prohibit touching both of them at
the same time.
The unit contains capacitors that remain charged to a potentially lethal voltage after the MAINS , battery and PV
supply has been disconnected.
Hazardous voltage will present for up to 5 minutes after disconnection from power supply.
CAUTION-RISK of electric shock from energy stored in capacitor, Never operate on the inverter couplers, the MAINS
cables, Battery cables, PV cables or the PV generator when power is applied. After switching o ffthe PV , battery
and Mains, always wait for 5minutes to let the intermediate circuit capacitors discharge before unpluging DC , battery
inplug and MAINS couplers.
When accessing the internal circuit of inverter, it is very important to wait 5 minutes before operating the power
circuit or demounting the electrolyte capacitors inside the device. Do not open the device before hand since the
capacitors require time sufficiently discharge!

1.3 Basic features
Hybrid Inverter Seires is a high quality inverter which can convert solar energy to AC energy
and store energy into battery.
The inverter can be used to optimize self consumption, store in the battery for future use or
feedin to public grid. Work mode depends on PV energy and user’s preference. It can provide
power for emergency use during the grid lost by using the energy from battery and inverter
(generated from PV).In addition, the parallel function is available(off grid model).
