The solar inverter may only be used as intended.

Proper use of the solar inverter meets the following criteria:

●Use in stationary PV systems connected to the local power

grid for converting the direct current in the PV system to alter-

nating current and feeding it into the grid

● Use within the specied power range (see “15 Technical Speci-

cations”, p. 80) and under the specied ambient conditions

(indoor area or covered outdoor area with up to IP65)

Any of the following uses of the solar inverter is considered

improper:

●Isolated operation The solar inverter has anti-islanding and

other monitoring features.

●Use in mobile PV systems.

3. General Safety Instructions

DANGER

Risk of death by electrocution

Potentially fatal voltage is applied to the solar

inverter during operation. This potentially fatal

voltage is still present for ve minutes after all

power sources have been disconnected.

►Never open the solar inverter.

►Always disconnect the solar inverter from

power before installation, open the DC isolat-

ing switch and make sure neither can be

accidentally reconnected.

► Wait at least ve minutes until the capacitors

have discharged.

DANGER

Risk of death or serious injury from electro-

cution

Potentially fatal voltage may be applied to the DC

connections of the solar inverter.

►Never disconnect the PV modules when the

solar inverter is powered.

►First switch off the grid connection so that

the solar inverter cannot feed energy into the

grid.

►Then open the DC isolating switch.

►Make sure the DC connections cannot be

accidentally touched.

●The solar inverter can be safely and normally operated if

installed and used in accordance with this manual (see

IEC 62109-5.3.3). Delta Energy Systems is not responsible

for damage incurred by failure to observe the installation and

operating instructions in this manual. For this reason, be sure

to observe and follow all instructions!

●Installation and commissioning may only be performed by

qualied electricians using the installation and commissioning

instructions found in this manual.

●The solar inverter must be disconnected from power and the

PV modules before any work on it can be performed.

●The solar inverter has a high leakage current value (see

“15 Technical Specications”, p. 80). The ground wire must

be connected before commissioning.

●Do not remove any warning signs that the manufacturer has

installed on the solar inverter.

●Improper handling of the solar inverter my result in physical

injury and damage to property. For this reason, observe and

follow all general safety instructions and warnings.

●The solar inverter contains no components that must be main-

tained or repaired by the operator or installer. All repairs must

be performed by Delta Energy Systems. Opening the cover

will void the warranty.

●Do not disconnect any cables when the solar inverter is pow-

ered due to risk of a fault arc.

●To prevent lightning strikes, follow the relevant regulations ap-

plicable in your country.

●The surface of the solar inverter can become very hot.

●The solar inverter is very heavy (see “15 Technical Specica-

tions”, p. 80). The solar inverter must be lifted and carried

by at least two people.

●Only devices in compliance with SELV (EN 69050) may be

connected to the RS485 and USB interfaces.

● All connections must be sufciently insulated in order to com-

ply with the IP65 protection rating. Unused connections must

be closed by placing cover caps on the solar inverter.

Risk of death by electrocution

Potentially fatal voltage is present when the solar inverter is in operation that remains for ve

minutes after being disconnected from power.

Never open the solar inverter. The solar inverter contains no components that must be main-

tained or repaired by the operator or installer. Opening the cover will void the warranty.

Read the manual before working with the solar inverter and follow the instructions contained in

the manual.

Risk of injury from high temperatures

When in operation, the housing of the solar inverter can become very hot.

Only touch the housing of the solar inverter (outside of the control panel) with safety gloves.

The control panel itself is protected by a special surface.

5.0 EU G4 TR

The DC connections are used for connecting the PV module

string(s) to the solar inverter.

The integrated DC isolating switch can separate the solar inverter

from the DC voltage of the PV modules.

The maximum permissible input current is 29 A for each DC con-

nection.

Connection type: Multi-contact MC4 plug, paired plug (DC+) and

socket (DC-)

5.5.3 AC connection

The AC connection is used for connecting the solar inverter to the

grid.

The connection is made using a triple-core cable (L, N, PE).

Connection type: Wieland RST25i3s, plug supplied in the scope of

delivery.

5.5.4 RS485 interface (EIA485)

The solar inverter has two RS485 interfaces to which a PC or a

monitoring system can be connected.

The RS485 interfaces are internally wired 1:1. This means that both

RS485 interfaces can be used as an input or an output.

If multiple solar inverters are connected together, each solar

inverter must have a unique ID (identication number). Monitoring

systems require the ID to recognize each solar inverter in a PV

system.

The last solar inverter must have an RS485 termination resistor

connected, which can be ordered from Delta (see “16.1 Order num-

bers”, p. 82).

The ID can be congured during commissioning (see “8 Commis-

sioning”, p. 34) and can be changed at any time during operation

(see “10.6 RS485 (EIA485) Settings”, p. 54).

Connection type: 2 x RJ45

5.5.5 USB interface

The USB interface is used for saving and loading data and reports.

Supported functions:

● Updating rmware

●Saving and loading settings

●Saving swap data

●Creating reports

●Service

See “11 Saving and Loading Data and Settings”, p. 63 for a

detailed description of the functions.

Connection type: USB A
