The research, development and manufacture of Song series are integrated
with the most updated techniques and public confirmed safety regulations.
However, improper operation or misuse may still cause injury or loss.
Instruction and information provided in this manual must be followed all the
time.
2.2 Circuit structure
Fig.2-2 shows the internal functional diagram of Song series inverter. After the
PV array input enters the voltage boosting circuit via the filter circuit,the input
DC voltage is boosted and stabilized to BUS value for the full-bride inverter
circuit, and in this process, the MPP tracer in the inverter will ensure the DC
energy generated in the photovoltaic array can be used by the inverter circuit
at maximum and the DC current will be conveyed into the grid.
The joint of the input and output EMC can effectively reduce the interference
between the inverter and outside.CPU1 and CPU2 control the inverter
operation and monitor the operation state, and in any abnormal working
condition, it will protect the inverter and external device and personal safety
according to the reserve program thus extremely improve the stability and
reliability of the system.

Some parts ( e.g.: heat radiator) of the inverter runs with
a high temperature, so it is not suitable for installing near
inflammables or explosives.
When selecting an installation position, please avoid the influence
of noise and electromagnetic radiation to the environment.
The inverter can not be installed near any place of high external
electromagnetic radiation(e.g.: a TV tower, communication signal
tower or HV cables).

DC cable between the inverter and the assembly shall be the
special PV cable. The voltage drop from the terminal box to the
inverter is about 1-2%. It is recommended the inverter is
installed on the assembly support for generation to reduce the
cable cost and the DC loss.
High performance and high quality PV array shall be used. The
open circuit voltage in the serial array must be lower than the
maximum DC input voltage in the PV grid-tied inverter, and the
working voltage of the serial array must comply with the MPPT
voltage of the serial array must comply with the MPPT voltage
in the PV grid-tied inverter.
● Protect the LCD panel during wiring;
● Protect the LCD panel and other elements from scratch or
damage by cables or tools.
1) Using the striping tool to cut the PV cable, and makes the cooper wire
reveal as 0.7cm.
In order to balance each PV series, Cable shall be with the same
sectional area.
Different colors of cables shall be used for differentiating in
assembling. For example: the positive pole is connected by a red
cable and the negative by a blue cable.
When designing the PV array, make sure the maximum
open circuit voltage is not higher than 550V at each series
of PV group. Otherwise the inverter will be damaged
irreversibly
If the inverter has been electrified and tested before
connection, wiring can not be performed unless the AC and
DC power supplies are cut off for 10min and a multimeter
shows that the DC side is tatally discharged.
Please cover the PV array by lightproof material or switch
off the DC circuit breaker before electrical connection. A
dangerous voltage will be generated by the PV array
exposed in the shine.

Installation
7)Start the monitor software on the PC and start to communicate.
2) Remove the waterproof cover from the RS485 communication waterproof
terminal, lead the cable through the cover and then to the device via the
waterproof terminal.
3) Estimate the cable length to the terminal, peel off the cable as pre the length
of the metal section of the tube type pre-insulated terminal, and press on the
terminal by a pair of wire end-sleeve pliers reliably.
1) Remove the 6 screws on the inverter bottom cover by wrench, and open the
bottom cover.
4) Press down the top of the terminal by a flat screw driver, insert the cable into
the terminal A/B.

4Trial operation
4.1 Check before operation
4.1.1 Check for reliability of mechanical installation
4.1.2 Check for connecting cables
4.1.3 Electrical check
Make sure the grid parameters are complying with the inverters parameters.
4.2 Electrify the inverter
Installation Trial operation
Warning
Caution
Necessary safety check must be performed before the
inverter is electrified for trial operation!
The inverter is a device with no transformer, neither the
positive nor the negative pole of the PV assembly DC side
can be earthed, or the inverter will not work normally, or even
be damaged irreversibly.
In Song series PV power generating system, all device shells, assembly supports
and the GND terminal of the inverter must be safety and reliably earthed. Check if the inverter is firmly installed and if all bolts are reliably tightened. For
an inverter installed on a metal supporter, make sure each bolt is tightened and
support has enough load bearing capacity.
Check if all cables in the system are firmly connected without any missed or
wrong connection, and especially check if all positive and negative poles are
correct. If a DC switch is equipped on the inverter, the DC switch shall be turn
to the “OFF” state.
Make sure the DC input voltage of the inverter is lower than 550V (with the
temperature decrease of the PV array, the open circuit voltage will be
increased, so a residual voltage at the low temperature must be put into
consideration).
The inverter can be started up as per the following steps after all testing and
checking steps are performed.
Switch on the DC breaker, and turn the DC switch to the “ON” state if a DC
switch is equipped on the inverter.
Switch on the AC breaker.
See Part 5 of this manual for “Human-machine interaction” after the inverter is
started up. If enough power energy can be generated in the solar array, the
inverter will be started up automatically, and LCD will display the normal status
which means the inverter is successfully started up. If the inverter is not
normally started up, please refer to Part 6 “Troubleshooting and maintenance”.
