2 Overview of the Inverter
This chapter introduces the inverter and describes its functional model network application, ,
, , .appearance dimensions and working process etc
2 1 1 Function. .
This series is a single-phase grid-tied PV string inverter transformer less that converts the DC( )
power generated by PV strings into AC power and feeds the power into power grid.
Figure 2 1 shows a model number of the inverter using 3K as an example. , .

Figure 2 1 Model number descriptions.
2 1 Functional Models.
The series applies to grid-tied PV power systems for outdoor power stations. Typically, a grid-tied
PV power system consists of PV modules, grid-tied inverters, AC distribution units, and low-voltage
power grid, as shown in Figure 2.2.
2 2 Network Application.
The inverter is transformerless Add an isolation transformer before.
grounding the positive negative terminal of PV modules like Thin/ (
Film module for operation) .
Do not connect PV modules in parallel to several PV inverters for
operation.

2 4 Working Process.
The 4K-6K PV Inverter with Dual MPPT Input receives input from two strings of PV panel (2K-
3.6K PV Inverter with Single MPPT Input receives input from only one string of PV panel).
Then the inputs are grouped into two independent MPPT routes inside the inverter to track the
maximum power point of the PV panel. The two MPPT power is then converted into DC Bus,
then the DC power is converted to AC power through an inverter circuit. Finally the AC power
is fed to the Power grid. EMI filer is used on both the DC and AC sides to reduce the
electromagnetic inference; Surge protection is supported on AC side.
Figure 2.8 shows the circuit diagram for the 2K-3.6K PV Inverter with Single MPPT Input:
