4. Instalasi jeung Setup

4.1 Pamasangan témbok

The inverter is designed for wall mounting. Choose a location that is dry, well-ventilated, and protected from direct sunlight and moisture. Ensure sufficient clearance around the unit for proper airflow and heat dissipation. Use appropriate mounting hardware for your wall type.

4.2 Diagram Sambungan Sistim

Figure 4.1: Basic application diagram showing the connections between solar panels, utility grid, generator, inverter, battery, and home loads. Note: Generator, PV modules, WiFi module, and battery are not included with the inverter unless specified.

4.3 Sambungan Wiring

Follow the diagram above and the labels on the inverter for correct wiring. Ensure all connections are secure and properly insulated. It is highly recommended that a qualified electrician performs all wiring.

• Sambungan Panel Surya: Connect your solar panels to the designated PV input terminals. Observe correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative). The maximum DC input voltage nyaéta 120 VDC.
• Sambungan batré: Connect the 24V battery bank to the battery terminals. Ensure correct polarity. The inverter supports AGM, lead-acid, gel, and flooded lithium-ion batteries.
• AC Input (Grid/Generator): Connect the AC utility grid or a generator to the AC input terminals. This provides backup power and can charge batteries.
• AC Output (Loads): Connect your household loads to the AC output terminals.

4.4 Mimiti Power-Up

After all connections are made and verified:

1. Turn on the battery breaker.
2. Turn on the solar panel breaker (if applicable).
3. Turn on the AC input breaker (if connected to grid/generator).
4. Turn on the inverter's power switch.
5. Observe the display for status indicators and initial readings.

5. Modeu Operasi

The PNI GreenHouse SC1800C PRO offers intelligent energy management with several configurable operating modes:

• Solar Priority Mode (SBU): In this mode, the inverter prioritizes power consumption from solar energy. If solar power is insufficient, it will draw from batteries. The utility grid acts as a backup.
• Modeu Prioritas batré: The inverter prioritizes drawing power from the batteries. Solar energy will charge the batteries. The utility grid is used only when battery voltage turun di handap ambang batas anu ditetepkeun.
• Utility Priority Mode (UPS): This mode prioritizes power from the utility grid. Solar energy will charge the batteries. The inverter switches to battery power only when the grid is unavailable, functioning as an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).

These modes can be configured via the inverter's multifunction display and dedicated menu for advanced settings.

5.1 Ngawaskeun

The inverter supports monitoring through:

• PC Software (USB): Connect the inverter to a PC using the provided USB cable and dedicated software for detailed monitoring and analysis of parameters.
• Remote Monitoring (WiFi - Optional): With the optional PNI Smart Dongle-WLAN, you can monitor the inverter remotely via a mobile application or web panganteur.

6. Pangropéa

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your inverter. Always disconnect all power sources before performing any maintenance.

• beberesih: Periodically clean the exterior of the inverter with a dry cloth. Ensure ventilation openings are free from dust and debris. Do not use liquid cleaners.
• Cék sambungan: Annually inspect all wiring connections (solar, battery, AC input/output) for tightness and signs of corrosion. Tighten any loose connections.
• Pamariksaan batré: If using lead-acid batteries, check electrolyte levels and terminal condition as per battery manufacturer guidelines.
• Pariksa Lingkungan: Ensure the installation environment remains within specified temperature and humidity ranges.
