Three phase operation (see appendix D)
Step 1: Setting ds2 and ds1 for 3-phase operation
As the table above shows, the current limits for each phase should be set separately (ds8 thru ds5). Thus, for AC-in1 as well as
AC-in-2, different current limits per phase can be selected.
If a panel is connected, the AC-in-2 current limit will equal the value set on the panel for all phases.
The maximum charging current is the same for all devices, and should be set on the leader (ds4 and ds3).
Example:
- AC-in-1 current limitation on the leader and the followers: 30A (setting for generator power 30 x 120 x 3 = 11kVA).
- AC-in-2 current limitation with 30A panel.
- If the charging current on the leader is set to 100% (120A for a Quattro 24/5000/120) and the system consists of
three devices, then the effective system charging current is equal to 3 x 120 = 360A.
The settings according to this example (15kVA 3-phase system) are as follows:
To store the settings after the required values have been set: press the 'Up' button of the leader for 2 seconds (upper button to
the right of the DIP switches, see appendix A, position K). The overload and low-battery LED’s will flash to indicate
acceptance of the settings.
We recommend making a note of the settings, and filing this information in a safe place.
You can now re-use the DIP switches to apply the remaining settings (step 2).
Important note:
Do NOT connect the L2-in and L2-out of the Quattro’s when a split phase or three phase system is created this way. These
systems have a different way of creating L2 which is not compatible with the L2 connections on the Quattro. Unexpected and/or
unwanted behaviour will be the result when connecting the L2 terminals.
