IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS This product has been engineered and manufactured to ensure your personal safety. Improper use may result in potential electrical shock or burns. Please read and follow all instructions for installatio n, use and servicing of this product.
1.0 INTRODUCTION The PV Powered StarIn verter is a utility interact ive inverter for photov oltaic (PV) systems. The StarInverter is tied to an electrical source provided by the local u tility company (i.e. on-grid), as well as to the photovoltaic syst em.
2.0 INSTALLATION 2.1 Selecting a Location for the StarInverter In choosing a location for th e StarInverter, consideration should be given to the f ollowing criteria: ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The heat sink temperatures can exceed 158 degrees (70 ° C).
2.2 Mounting the StarInverter The StarInverter shou ld be mounted vertically to a flat, solid su rface such as wallboard, concrete or wood siding. T he inverter should be located in close proximity to the solar panels to minimize the DC wi re length. The two mounting brackets provided make mo unting the StarInverter quick and simple.
4. Attach the lower bracket to the inverter using the two screws provided. 5. Insert the two mounting screws throug h the mounting h oles located below the power board at the bottom of the cabinet and tigh ten securely. Figure 3 5. Carefully bring the inverter right side up and hang it on the upper bracket.
2.3 Electrical Connection Do not proceed with the electric al connection of the StarInverter until it has been properly mounted. WARNING: Electrical connections must be do ne in accordance with local electrical codes and the National Electri cal Code (NEC), ANSI/NFPA 70.
2.3.a Grounding ♦ ♦ A single point ground con nection is located in the low er right hand side of th e StarInverter cabinet. The PV panel ground ing wire is terminated there. The AC ground connection is terminat ed next to the Li ne and Line 2/Neutral connections on the circuit board.
Figure 7: AC and PV Grounding 2.3.b Connecting the StarInverter to the Electrical Grid Inside the StarInverter are two circuit boards: ♦ ♦ The Control Board The Power Distribution Board with a D-s.
WARNING: Make sure the main 120/208/240 V breaker at the circuit breaker panel is switched off before you connect the AC terminal block. To wire the StarInv erter to the main ut ility grid, follow the st eps outlined below (refer t o Figure 8): 1.
2.3.c Connecting DC Wires/PV Panels WARNING: Before proceeding with the DC wiring, completely cover the surface of all PV-arrays with dark materi al to avoid the production of electrical current . WARNING: Make sure the polarity and the PV panel voltage between the + and the – cable connectors of the PV panels are correct.
7. Confirm that the DC disconnect is turn ed off and remove the material from the array. With a voltmeter, check the PV array positive leads and confirm that the voltage is positive when referenced to the negative leads. The reading sh ould match your series Voc total.
2.3.d Connecting Communications (Optional Step) To connect the communications and load the software, follow the steps outlined below (Refer to Figures 11 and 12): 1. Hardwire the communication s cable to the communication terminal, or pl ug in the D-sub cable to the serial port.
3.0 OPERATION 3.1 Start Up Procedures for the StarInverter WARNING : Before turning on the StarInverter ensure that the front panel is closed properly. WARNING: The heat sink can reach temperatures in excess of 158º (70ºC). Care must be taken to not touch the heat sink when in use.
The StarInverter is continuously monitoring : 1. The AC grid connection to ensure the AC voltage and frequency lev els are within safe operating limits (per UL an d NEC specifications). 2. The DC PV panel input(s) to ensure sa fe operating conditions (per UL an d NEC specifications).
3.3 PVP Command Center PV Powered has designed a re volutionary software program, the PVP Command Center. The Command Ce.
If you are monitoring your inverter fr om a remote location (see figure 15): 1) Select Client un der Remote Mode. 2) Select an available Com port (this may be selected automatically for you). 3) Under Remote Server (Client Mode) en ter the IP Address and Port of the host Server (noted above).
3.3.a Data Logging with the PVP Command Center Information obtained by the PVP Command Ce nter is easily exported to an Excel spreadsheet where the following data is logged in one-minute incremen ts: .
4.0 TROUBLESHOOTING If the StarInverter’s “STAND BY” LED remain s solid red or blinking red for a prolonged period (more than 24 hours), the AC breaker or AC disconnect should be turned to the OFF position for 1 minute and then returned to the ON position.
For example: EX 1: Fault Code 1000 0000 0480 The first code indicates this is a voltage fault of some kind. The 4 in code three indicate an AC over voltage. The 8 in code three indicate the AC frequency was out of bounds. EX 2: Fault Code 8004 0000 0000 The 8 in the first code indicate a power module fault.
