4. Product Overview
EcoFlow PowerStream Micro-Inverter
The micro-inverter converts DC power from solar panels into AC power for household use. It features an integrated MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) algorithm to optimize solar energy production under varying conditions, achieving a 95% MPPT efficiency. It supports a maximum input of 400W x 2 and a maximum output of 800W.
EcoFlow DELTA 2 Portable Power Station
The DELTA 2 serves as a 1kWh portable energy storage unit. It stores excess solar energy generated during the day for use during the night or when solar production is low, helping to reduce electricity costs.
BKW-DELTA EB Cable
This cable facilitates the connection between the PowerStream Micro-Inverter and the DELTA 2 Portable Power Station.
5. Setup
Follow these steps to set up your EcoFlow PowerStream Balcony Power Station:
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all items from their packaging. Verify that all components listed in Section 3 are present.
- Positioning: Place the solar panels in an area with maximum sun exposure. Ensure the PowerStream Micro-Inverter and DELTA 2 Power Station are in a dry, well-ventilated location, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
- Connect Solar Panels to Micro-Inverter: Connect your solar panels to the input ports of the PowerStream Micro-Inverter. Refer to the micro-inverter's specific manual for detailed wiring diagrams.
- Connect Micro-Inverter to DELTA 2: Use the BKW-DELTA EB cable to connect the PowerStream Micro-Inverter to the DELTA 2 Portable Power Station.
- Connect Micro-Inverter to Home Grid: Plug the AC output cable from the PowerStream Micro-Inverter into a standard wall outlet in your home. This connection allows the system to feed power into your home's electrical grid.
- Power On: Turn on the DELTA 2 Power Station and the PowerStream Micro-Inverter.

6. Operating Instructions
Energy Flow Management
During daylight hours, the system prioritizes direct use of solar energy by your home appliances. Any excess solar power not immediately consumed is automatically stored in the DELTA 2 Power Station. At night, or when solar generation is insufficient, your home will draw power from the stored energy in the DELTA 2, optimizing energy savings.
EcoFlow App Control
The EcoFlow app provides comprehensive monitoring and control over your PowerStream system. Download the EcoFlow app from your device's app store and connect to your PowerStream and DELTA 2 units via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.
- Real-time Monitoring: View current solar input, household energy consumption, and DELTA 2 charge/discharge status.
- Energy Allocation: The app intelligently allocates power, sending necessary electricity to home circuits and storing surplus in the DELTA 2.
- Customization: Adjust settings and preferences for energy management to suit your specific needs.
7. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your EcoFlow PowerStream system:
- Cleaning: Keep the micro-inverter and DELTA 2 free from dust and debris. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners.
- Solar Panel Cleaning: Periodically clean solar panels to remove dirt, leaves, or snow that may reduce efficiency.
- Connection Check: Regularly inspect all cables and connections for any signs of wear, damage, or looseness. Ensure they are securely fastened.
- Software Updates: Keep the EcoFlow app and device firmware updated to the latest versions for improved performance and new features.
- Storage: If storing the DELTA 2 for an extended period, ensure it is charged to approximately 50-80% and stored in a cool, dry place. Recharge every 3-6 months to prevent battery degradation.
8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your EcoFlow PowerStream system, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
