System description 4.6.2 DC connectors and DC switch DC+ Image 4.7.: DC– DC connectors and DC switch The DC connectors are used to connect the string(s) of PV modules to the solar inverter. The solar inverter has an integrated DC switch to disconnect the DC connectors from the DC voltage of the PV modules. The maximum input current load of each individual Multi-Contact MC4 connector is 29 A. Type of connector: Multi-Contact MC4 connectors; 3 x for DC negative, 3 x for DC positive 4.6.
Each solar inverter must have a unique ID, on the last one in a series the termination has to be switched on. This can be done either during (see “7. Commissioning”, p. 45) or later on (see “9.1.6 RS485 (EIA485)”, p. 69). Type of connector: 2 x RJ45 4.6.5 USB interface The USB interface is used for saving and loading data and reports.
Operating behavior 5. Operating behavior 5.1 Technical structure of the solar inverter The solar inverter is galvanic isolated from the grid through a DC/AC converter with an integrated high-frequency transformer. MPP-tracking The solar inverter has one MPP tracker (MPP = Maximum Power Point). The MPP tracker is used to adjust the DC voltage depending on the varying solar irradiation levels and ambient temperatures. So the maximum power output of the PV modules can be achieved.
Efficiency 0.97 0.95 0.91 0.89 0.87 0.85 4000 2000 0 6000 8000 10000 Power [W] 425 V Image 5.1.: 600 V 800 V Efficiency over power Ambient conditions The high-quality aluminum casing corresponds to protection class IP65 (water-jet-proof and dustproof) and surface is protected against weathering. The cooling characteristic profile is designed so that operation of the inverter is possible with ambient temperatures from -25°C to +70°C.
Operating behavior The string concept means that PV modules are always connected in series (in a string) and/or that strings with the same voltage are connected in parallel to the solar inverter with the aim of significantly reducing the photovoltaic system’s cabling requirements. The fact that the modules are connected in strings also means that the photovoltaic system can be perfectly matched to the solar inverter’s input voltage range. 5.
6. Installation 6.1 Planning the installation General instructions ►► Mount the solar inverter to the wall first, then install electrical connections. ►► Noise generation can affect usage in residential areas. Therefore, avoid installation in residential areas. ►► Ensure legibility of the LEDs and the display (check read-off angle and installation height). ►► Install the device on a non-flammable support base. ►► Do not install on resonating surfaces (light construction walls etc.).
Installation Ambient conditions ►► The protection class is IP65. So the solar inverter can be installed both indoors and in protected outdoor areas. ►► The ambient operating temperature range of the solar inverter is -25°C to +70°C. An increased ambient temperature can reduce the efficiency of the PV system. Especially when the solar inverter is installed indoors, ensure sufficient cooling. The solar inverter minimum mounting clearances must be satisfied to avoid overheating.
►► Prevent direct exposure to sunlight. ►► Prevent heavy contamination with dirt. Dust can impair the unit’s performance. ►► For getting the highest reliability of your installation and all external components (cables, protection equipments etc), protect the system with a gasket against direct water jet (strong rain, direct snow deposition). 6.2 Mechanical Installation 6.2.1 Mounting plate warning Danger of injury due to heavy weight The solar inverter is heavy (see “13. Technical data”, p. 99).
Installation A A 320 200 ∅ 12 B 12 6.5 A 12 38 A B 90 B C 150 C 319,5 410 ± 0.5 Image 6.3.
1. Mount the mounting plate to the wall with at least 4 screws and anchors (∅ 6 mm). With 4 screws use 4 holes A or 4 holes B (see Image 6.3, p. 30). You can use the mounting plate as a template for marking the positions of the boreholes. 2. Tighten the screws firmly to the wall. 3. With at least two people hang the solar inverter into the mounting plate, see Image 6.4, p. 31. Image 6.4.
Installation 4. Fasten the solar inverter to the mounting plate by tightening the mounting nuts and washers on the threaded bolts (see Image 6.3, position C). (The threaded bolts are also used to connect the earth wire to the solar inverter.) 5. After finishing, check the mechanical installation. 6.3 Electrical installation danger Risk of death or heavy injury due to dangerous voltage ►► Switch the AC line potential-free before removing or inserting the AC connector. 6.3.
The solar inverter provides a galvanic separation between DC side and AC side. Therefore, it is not possible to get direct currents on the AC side, so a RCMU type A is sufficient. We recommend the use of a 32 A RCMU, but always follow specific regulations for your country. The typical leakage current is below 3.5 mA. NOTice The secondary short-circuit current rating at the transfer connection point to the public electricity supply system is increased by the nominal current of the connected solar inverter.
Installation Connecting cable and circular connector NOTicE Observe the pin assignment of the circular connector. An incorrect assignment can result in the solar inverter being destroyed. 1. Remove the sheathing on the cable as shown and remove 10 mm insulation on the individual wire ends. 52.5 mm (PE: 57.5 mm) 10 mm Image 6.6.: 2. If the cable diameter is between 16 mm and 20 mm, remove the sealing gasket (the inner, blue ring on the backside of the cable gland). Image 6.7.: 3.
The female cable connector needs to be wired as shown below. Rotate the connector housing and cable gland to remove them from the coupling ring. Slide the connector housing and cable gland onto the cable. NOTE: Rear view of cable connector L2 To wire the connector refer to placement of L1, L2, L3, N and PE shown to the left. Screw termination is provided to fix the wires to the contacts. PE L1 L2 L3 N L1 L3 1 : L1 2 : L2 3 : L3 4:N : PE Inverter PE N 3. 1.
Installation 4. When using cable diameters between 11 mm and 13 mm, mount a strain relief just behind the circular connector. For other cable diameters it is recommended to mount a strain relief. 5. Ground the PE conductor of the AC cable to the designated terminal. 6. Ground the mounting plate. Image 6.8.: 6.3.
General instructions Before the photovoltaic system is connected, the polarity of the PV voltage at the Multi-Contact MC4 connectors must be checked to ensure that it is correct. The solar inverter contains a DC switch. The connection of the PV module is implemented using MC4 connectors, where the DC negative (MINUS) pole is located on the connector right row and the DC positive (PLUS) pole on the connector left row.
Installation UTE kit Multi-Contact UTE kit Multi-Contact for European SOLIVIA solar inverters 6.3.3 Part number Delta EOE90000341 RS485 (EIA485) interface NOTice To ensure IP65, all unused connectors and interfaces must be closed with the fitted covers. The dedicated cables must be used, not standard cables. The RS485 interfaces are used to connect one or more solar inverters to a monitoring system. The two interfaces are internally connected 1:1.
