Introduction
1.1 MMP Series Overview
The MMP enclosure is available in four basic confi gurations. This section lists the four models and
the enclosure’s main components and features.
Individual Models:
• MMP175-30D (Mini Magnum Panel, 175 ADC breaker, dual 30 AAC bypass/input breakers)
• MMP175-60S (Mini Magnum Panel, 175 ADC breaker, single 60 AAC bypass/input breakers)
• MMP250-30D (Mini Magnum Panel, 250 ADC breaker, dual 30 AAC bypass/input breakers)
• MMP250-60S (Mini Magnum Panel, 250 ADC breaker, single 60 AAC bypass/input breakers)
Standard Features:
• Enclosure is steel construction with durable white powder coat fi nish
• Battery/inverter DC disconnect breaker (175 or 250 amps)
• Inverter AC input overcurrent protection breakers
• Pre-wired AC bypass switch for inverter isolation/battery maintenance
• Front mount AC and DC breakers for quick and easy operation
• AC and DC ground screw type compression terminals (no lugs required)
• 500A/50mV DC shunt installed for easy connection to battery status monitor
• Easy fi eld wiring with front-mounted AC and DC input/output terminals
• Enclosure and components are UL/CSA certifi ed and designated for indoor use
• Confi gurations available for both single 120 VAC and 120/240 VAC systems
• DC negative and ground busbars (negative can be isolated if PV-GFP device installed)
• Battery positive busbar for DC loads and PV arrays included
• Provides mounting for DIN rail or back-mounted DC load/disconnect breakers
• Integrates directly with Magnum MS, MS-PAE, and RD Series inverters
• Knockouts for inverter and battery cables, PV in/out, DC breakers
• Stud terminal available for large DC wire if used as system ground
• Data cables with 300-volt rated insulation to allow 240 VAC inverter installations
• Inverter hood to allow a Magnum inverter to be mounted vertically
Physical Features:
• MMP dimensions (H x W x D): 18” x 13” x 6.75” (45.7cm x 33cm x 17.1cm)
• MMP weight: 22.5 lbs. (10.2 kg)
• Shipping dimensions (H x W x D): 22” x 15” x 12.5” (56.9cm x 38.1cm x 31.8cm)
• Shipping weight: 31.5 lbs. (14.3 kg)
Optional Accessories/Components:
• ME-RC – Basic Remote Control with LCD display; allows inverter (or connected accessory) to be
confi gured and monitored, and maintains the critical settings in non-volatile memory.
• ME-ARC – Advanced Remote Control with LCD display; has all the features of the ME-RC
remote, but also confi gures the advanced features of the inverter (or any connected accessory).
• ME-BMK-NS – Battery Monitor; determines battery State of Charge (DC shunt not included).
• ME-AGS-N – Automatic Generator Start Controller (Network version); automatically starts/
stops generators.
• BP-MMP – Metal Backplate; for mounting the Magnum inverter and MMP enclosure, and is
UPS shippable. See Figure A8-1 in Appendix A for more specifi c information.
• DC Breakers – Space for up to four E-Frame/back-mounted (1” width) or eight Q-Frame/DIN
rail-mounted (1/2” width) DC breakers.
• MMP-KP – A top cover plate with knockouts to allow other (non-Magnum) inverter installations.
See Figure A4-1 in Appendix A for more specifi c information.
