The sockets below the amperemeter have to be bridged by jumper. External measuring instruments An additional external measuring device can be connected to the sockets below the voltmeter. When measuring with an additional external amperemeter, loop this one in instead of the jumper. Particularity In case of operation with solar simulators ST 02 at the PV input of the charge regulator, this regulator shortly closes the input as a pulse towards the end of the battery charging process (shunt regulator). The pulse length depends on the state of charge of the battery. The voltage of the simulators collapses in case of a short circuit and the current increases ( power = 0) like with a “real” solar module. Correspondingly, this can be seen at the dithering instrument display. This operating condition should only be maintained for a very short time for demonstration purposes in order to prevent the instruments from damage.

Load disconnection If the deep discharging protection has been activated the SOC bar or the voltage value flashes. The face looks sad until the reconnection setpoint is reached. 5. Function Overview This charging regulator has basic functions for specifying the charging state (SOC), charging specification and deep discharge protection that are described in the following section. Additional functions that can be activated such as the settings, night light function, auto-test, presetting and serial number query are explained under the corresponding menu items in chapter 6. 5.1. SOC Calculation During operation, the regulator monitors various parameters (U; I) of the battery and from that calculates the battery’s charge level (SOC = state of charge). The charge level is the energy level still available in the battery. Modifications in the system, e.g. the battery’s aging process are automatically taken into consideration by the system’s continuous learning process. 708.219 | 08.44 Using this SOC information, you always have an accurate overview on the actual battery level. Using the SOC, the regulator also controls the selection of the charging procedure and the deep discharging protection in order to ideally maintain the battery. If one of the parameters cannot be recorded because for example, a consumer or charging source is directly connected to the battery, the SOC calculation is invalid. The regulator can then be set to the more simplified voltage-guided control, see chapter 6.2. The SOC calculation is restarted each time the regulator is reinstalled. 5.2.PWM Charge Control The regulator applies a constant voltage charging to the battery. The entire available electricity provided by the charging source is used for charging the battery until the final voltage is reached. A pulse width modulator (PWM) regulates the charging current by briefly closing the module input (shunt charge controller) in the charge control area. Depending on the actual battery level, various charging procedures, float charging, boost charging and equalization charging are automatically performed. In doing so, the settings for the battery and control type are factored in. The final charging voltage is temperature compensated. Every 30 days a test is automatically performed to determine if an equalization charging must be carried out. 5.3.Deep Discharging Protection The regulator protects the connected battery against an excessive discharging. If the battery falls below a specified charge level (during SOC control) or battery voltage (during the voltage-controlled function), the load output is disconnected and the discharge of the battery is prevented. The display shows the early warning and disconnection during deep discharging. The setpoints of the deep discharging protection are predefined and cannot be reset. 6. Regulator Settings The battery type, control type and night light function can be set in the regulator. Points for the auto-test and the serial number query are also located within the menu. The settings remain when the battery is disconnected. 6.1.Calling up and Modifying the Settings Press the left button for at least 3 seconds to open the first setting window (control type). Press the left button again to call up the various windows. Press the right button to modify settings. The display begins to flash. Now, with the left button select the settings options. The setting must be saved with the right button. The display then stops flashing. The normal window reappears after a 30 second waiting period or pressing the left button for 3 seconds. This applies to all windows. 6.2.SOC Setting / Voltage Control The SOC control is the factory setting. This way, the charging procedure and the deep discharging protection are controlled by the calculated SOC value for ideal battery usage. Only fixed voltage thresholds are used and the SOC bar display is faded out in all windows during voltage-guided control (UoL). 708.219 | 08.44 6.3.Gel / Liquid Battery Type Setting The standard setting is “Li”. The setting of the battery type influences the cutoff voltage of the controller. If you use a Gel or AGM battery, you have to change the battery type to GEL. Caution! An incorrect battery type setting can damage the battery! 6.4.Night Light Function Setting This setting provides three options in the following order: • OFF: The function is deactivated (default). • Operating time-choice of 1 to 8 hours. • ON: The consumer output remains on for the entire night. This function controls the load output only when it is dark (at night). During daylight the consumer output remains off. The connected solar module records information on the light intensity. The load is activated once the solar module detects that it is dark. Once it becomes light, the regulator deactivates the consumer output regardless which illumination duration has been selected. Due to different properties of various modules, the twilight threshold cannot be specified accurately. An activation delay cannot be set when twilight sets in. 6.5.Default Setting (Presetting) Activation Calling up the default settings (PRE) deletes the previous settings and resets the charge controller to the factory settings. The default setting is: SOC Control / Gel Storage Battery / Night Light OFF 6.6.Auto-test The auto-test can determine whether the charge controller is fully operational and localize all possible windows simultaneously. The following preparations must be met before you can start the text using the menu item. Non-compliance can lead to incorrect test results. A) Disconnect the solar module from the charge regulator (both connections). The battery must be connected. B) Connect a small functional DC consumer, e.g. an energy-saving lamp, to the load output. C) Press the right button to manually disconnect the load. The load symbol no longer appears in the display. After these preparations, call up the auto-test menu item and continue as follows: D) Press the right button. The display begins to flash. 10 708.219 | 08.44 E) Start the auto-test with the left button. The test expires quickly and automatically. F) If there is no error, this window is displayed shortly (1. sec.) Afterwards, all LCD segments fade in and out for 1 second. Then the auto-test window reappears in the display. G) If there is an error, an error code is displayed. Note the code – your Steca distributor can help you find the error with this information.

Please do not open the regulator or attempt to replace components when troubleshooting. Improper maintenance can be hazardous to the user and the system. If the regulator detects errors or unauthorized operating states, it flashes error codes on the display. Error codes can generally be differentiated, whether there is a temporary malfunction, e.g. regulator overload or a more serious system error that can be remedied by appropriate external measures. Since not all errors can be simultaneously displayed, the error with the highest error number (priority) is displayed. If several errors are present, the second error code is displayed after remedying the more significant error. The following meaning is assigned to the different error codes: Display 708.219 | 08.44 Meaning Cause / Remedy Communication error with the internal memory (EEPROM).

Reliable current despite an overload lasting several minutes? Even at high ambient temperatures? No problem! The stand-alone inverters of the KI series were designed for independent power supply in areas remote from the grid under extreme conditions. The galvanically isolated units with MOSFET semiconductors convert the DC volt- age of a battery into AC voltage. They are extremely resistant to overload and supply purely sinusoidal voltage with a high degree of efficiency that can be used for trouble-free operation of sensitive electronics such as televisions, laptops and refrigerators. Using this standalone inverter is often more economical than purchasing low performance 12 V DC devices.

Sie wandeln die Gleichspannung (z. B. 12V, 24V oder 48V) einer Batterie in 230V / 50Hz (alternativ 115V / 60Hz) Wechselspannung um. Mit der nun zur Verfügung stehenden Wechselspannung haben Sie die Möglichkeit handelsübliche 230V Verbraucher, wie z. B. Radios, Fernseher, PCs oder Kühlschränke, zu betreiben. Dies kann in vielen Anwendungen erheblich preiswerter sein, als teure und oftmals leistungsschwache und verbrauchsintensive 12 V-Geräte zu kaufen. Die Tatsache, dass es sich bei der Ausgangsspannung des Wechselrichters um eine reine SinusSpannung handelt hat den Vorteil, dass auch empfindliche Verbraucher damit betrieben werden können. Gute Beispiele sind hierfür Energiesparlampen, Fernsehgeräte, Kühlschränke, SatAnlagen oder Laptops. Lösungen mit einer „modifizierten SinusSpannung“ (Trapez, bzw. Dreiecksform) oder Rechteckspannungen können empfindlichen Verbrauchern schaden. optional DC-Kopplung The battery-coupled stand-alone inverters of our KI series are suitable for independent energy supply in areas where no (or no reliable) public grid is available. Using an battery, these stand-alone inverters convert direct current (e.g. 12V, 24V or 48V) into alternating current (230V/50 Hz or, alternatively, 115V/60Hz). The AC current now available can be used to operate common consumers, such as radios, TV sets, or refrigerators. For many applications, this can be much more favorable than buying expensive 12V devices, which are often weak in terms of power but exhibit high energy consumption. Due to the fact that the output voltage of the inverter is a genuine sine voltage, even sensitive devices can be operated. Good examples are energysaving lamps, TV sets, refrigerators, SAT devices or laptops. Solutions with “modified sine voltage” (trapezoidal or triangular waveform), or square-wave voltage may damage sensitive consumers.

The ENS26 isolation unit has been conceived as an independent unit for monitoring one-phase power feeding systems. It prevents uncontrolled island effects following failure or shutdown of the public electricity supply. The ENS26 complies with DIN VDE 0126-1-1 and is approved as a substitute for manual isolation devices up to a 5.75 kW feeding power. By implementing this automatic isolation unit, it is possible to dispense with a manual isolation unit which must be accessible to the public electricity supply authorities at all times. The feeding systems (one-phase systems) can be: • photovoltaic systems, • small hydroelectric power stations, • block-type thermal power stations, • fuel cells, • small wind energy plants. Page 4 of 20 Product Description ENS26 Version: A.02 Issue: 20.09.2005 Chapter 2 System Description 2 2.1 System Description Principles of functioning The ENS26 automatic isolation unit continually monitors • overvoltage and undervoltage • frequency deviation • impedance jumps in the public electricity supply. In the event of faults in the mains supply, the ENS26 interrupts the feeding of electricity in the mains to prevent island effects. The disconnection of L and N is accomplished by two relays. Each relay is specified for a switching current of 25 A. The contact distance within the relay is in accordance to the overvoltage category 2 at 250 V AC. The safety functions are executed in a dual channel system, whereby each channel monitors the proper function of the other channel. In case of a failure the channels disconnect independently from each other. The channels monitor each other mutually (refer to the error protection in accordance with DIN VDE 0126) to increase error protection. Therefore, recurrent tests can be dispensed with. Note Further information on the principles of functioning is available on our Internet site at www.ufegmbh.de.

Version: A.02 Issue: 20.09.2005 Product Description ENS26 Page 7 of 20 Chapter 3 Behaviour of the Isolation Unit 3 3.1 Behaviour of the Isolation Unit General information The ENS26 monitors the mains power supply and prevents uncontrolled island effects developing in the event of a power failure or the mains being switched off. It reacts to fluctuations in: • voltage, • frequency, • impedance. Note The default settings can be changed, if necessary. The ENS manufacturer must be informed of these requirements, however, prior to configuration. 3.2 Fluctuations in the mains power supply The threshold values for the mains power supply are set as follows: Fluctuation Page 8 of 20 Threshold value Test interval Overvoltage 300 V Every 20 ms (fast shutdown) Overvoltage 264 V Every 200 ms Undervoltage 130 V Every 20 ms (fast shutdown) Undervoltage 184 V Every 200 ms Average of the mains voltage above set value 253 V 10-minute average Product Description ENS26 Version: A.02 Issue: 20.09.2005 Chapter 3 Behaviour of the Isolation Unit 3.3 Deviation of the mains power frequency The testing of the frequency is performed directly at the mains voltage. The threshold values for the mains frequency are set as follows: Fluctuation Threshold value Test interval Overfrequency 50.2 Hz Every 200 ms Underfrequency 47.5 Hz Every 200 ms Channel 1 also measures the phase position between the outer conductors. In the event of a phase difference in excess of 30 degrees, the feeding point is disconnected from the power supply. If the rate of change of the frequency (RoCoF) exceeds 1 Hz/s, disconnection from the supply is also triggered. 3.4 Impedance jumps The mains impedance is monitored. The time-dependent change of voltage near the crossover (phase shift), caused by test signals, with various voltage values forms the basis for calculating the mains impedance. All the impedances measured in one second are used to establish an average value. The number of measuring pulses is dependent on the number of ENS connected in the network. Depending on the power characteristics, the triggering threshold for an impedance jump is adapted between 1 ohm and 0.2 ohm. Note A threshold of 0.5 ohm is set ex works. The automatic adaptation of the switching threshold is described in Section 3.8. Version: A.02 Issue: 20.09.2005 Product Description ENS26 Page 9 of 20 Chapter 3 Behaviour of the Isolation Unit 3.5 Influence of isolation units on each other When isolation units of the type ENS26 are used, they can be implemented in dense proximity in the public electricity supply without it leading to operational problems. Even in the case of long network spurs and a mains supply subject to frequent faults, unproblematic operation can be guaranteed. The ENS26 automatically adapts to these difficult power supply conditions. To achieve this, the following processes are integrated in the ENS26: • optimised impedance measurement process, • automatic calibration of the measured impedance change, • automatic adaptation of switching thresholds to frequent fluctuations and interference levels • automatic synchronisation and limitation of signal strength in the case of frequent use of the ENS 3.6 Optimised impedance measurement process The optimised impedance measurement process improves the resolution and interference resistance of the impedance measurement on a large scale. Centralised ripple control signals and frequency converters hardly influence measurements. An island effect is recognised by a sudden increase in the mains power impedance. average voltage supply phase shift measured by the ENS test signal ENS island formation Page 10 of 20 local power supply Product Description ENS26 Version: A.02 Issue: 20.09.2005 Chapter 3 Behaviour of the Isolation Unit 3.7 Automatic calibration of the impedance measurement A precision resistor in the ENS performs an automatic, continuous calibration of the impedance measurements and, at the same time, a continuous, automatic self-test. Manual calibration is no longer necessary. To complete the calibration, the precision resistor is electronically bridged several times per second and the resulting impedance changes used as a reference for the calibration. ENS Version: A.02 Issue: 20.09.2005 Product Description ENS26 mains Page 11 of 20 Chapter 3 Behaviour of the Isolation Unit 3.8 Automatic adaptation of switching thresholds to the mains power conditions A distinction can be made between an overreaction of the ENS and an uncontrolled island effect. In the case of an overreaction by the ENS, the power supply remains available after disconnection of the feeding point from the mains. If an overreaction is detected, the switching threshold for the next shutdown is adapted to a value which is a little above the current threshold value that has lead to a shutdown. Before the switching threshold is adapted to a less sensitive value, the ENS26 switches off briefly in order to check whether the power supply is still available. The threshold is only changed to a less sensitive value when it is recognised that the situation does not concern an uncontrolled island effect. In the case of stable, undisturbed mains supply feeding points, the switching threshold is slowly set to a value (i.e. over several days) which is about double that of the recurrent fluctuations which occurred (safety clearance). As a result of this automatic adaptation to the mains power conditions, safety is considerably increased without limiting the availability of the system. If the interference level repeatedly exceeds the switching threshold, the switching threshold is incremented and the slow adaptation begins again from the start. switching threshold interference level Page 12 of 20 Product Description ENS26 Version: A.02 Issue: 20.09.2005 Chapter 3 Behaviour of the Isolation Unit 3.9 Automatic synchronisation / limitation of signal strength in the case of frequent use of the ENS A “team” of parallel connected ENS units at the same feeding point generate a joint, stronger test signal through synchronisation. This enables even higher measuring accuracy. Faulty triggering is practically zero and operation is more stable. The parallel connected ENS units generate a “decentral test tone”. As the number of ENS devices increases, more and more enter a passive operating state. They only generate a few signals themselves and use the jointly generated test signal as a pilot tone which can be measured at the mains power connection point.

Bei negativem Stromfluss erscheint ein Minus vor dem Messwert. 4. Erhalten Sie eine Überlaufanzeige („OL”), so schalten Sie bei manueller Messbereichswahl sofort in den nächst höheren Bereich. Ist der höchste Bereich eingestellt bzw. automatische Messbereichswahl eingestellt, so schalten Sie bei Erscheinen der Überlaufanzeige sofort die Spannung am Messobjekt ab und trennen das Messgerät vom Messobjekt. 5. Erhalten Sie keine Anzeige und alle Verbindungen sind exakt ausgeführt, kann eine defekte interne Sicherung die Fehlerursache sein, die die Strommessbereiche absichert. Näheres zum Sicherungswechsel finden Sie im Abschnitt „Sicherung”. 6. Hat der Messstrom einen Wert kleiner 400 mA und Sie haben vorher zur Sicherheit den 10 A-Bereich gewählt, so können Sie die rote Messleitung auf die mA-Buchse umstecken und auf den mA-Bereich umschalten. Hier erhalten Sie eine höher aufgelöste Anzeige als im 10 A-Bereich. 13 Bitte beachten! - Bei Messungen von höheren Strömen ab 400 mA im 10 A-Bereich ist eine maximale Messzeit von 30 s je Messung einzuhalten. Anderenfalls kann das Gerät durch zu starke Erwärmung beschädigt werden. 8. Widerstandsmessung Achtung - Vor der Messung von Widerständen, Kontinuität (Durchgang), Dioden den Strom des Stromkreises abschalten und alle Kondensatoren entladen. Bedienung: 1. Schalten Sie den Drehschalter in den Widerstandsmessbereich (CAP/Ω/ ) und wählen Sie mit der Taste „MODE” die Widerstandsmessung (Anzeige „MΩ”) an. 2. Stecken Sie den Stecker der roten Messleitung in die Messbuchse V/Ω und den der schwarzen Messleitung in die Messbuchse COM. 3. Verbinden Sie die Messleitungen mit dem Messobjekt. Beachten Sie bei der Messung auch die folgenden Hinweise: - Bei Messungen im höchsten Messbereich braucht das Messgerät u. U. einige Zeit, um einen stabilen Wert anzuzeigen. Dies ist im Messprinzip begründet und stellt keine Fehlfunktion dar. - Weitere Hinweise siehe Kapitel „Messbereiche”. - Bei sehr niedrigen Widerstandswerten (400 Ω-Bereich) können bereits die internen Widerstände der Messleitungen und Messbuchsen zu einer verfälschten Anzeige führen. Bei kurzgeschlossenen Messspitzen wird der angezeigte Widerstandswert notiert und bei den folgenden Messungen vom Messwert abgezogen. 9. Diodentest Diese Funktion ermöglicht den Test von Halbleiterstrecken auf Durchgang und Sperrfunktion. Achtung - Vor der Messung von Widerständen, Kontinuität (Durchgang), Dioden oder Kapazität den Strom des Stromkreises abschalten und alle Kondensatoren entladen. 14 Bedienung: 1. Schalten Sie den Drehschalter auf „CAP/Ω/ / ” und wählen Sie mit der Taste „MODE” den Diodentest (Anzeige „ “) an. 2. Stecken Sie den Stecker der roten Messleitung in die Messbuchse V/Ω und den der schwarzen Messleitung in die Messbuchse COM. 3. Verbinden Sie die Messleitungen mit dem Messobjekt, z. B. einer Diode. Zeigt das Display dabei sofort Overload (OL) an, so tauschen Sie die Anschlüsse der Messleitungen am Messobjekt. 4. Zeigt das Display nun einen Wert an, so ist das Bauelement in Ordnung, es wird die Durchlassspannung des Bauelements angezeigt (bei GEDioden ca. 0,2 V, bei SI-Dioden ca. 0,5 V). 5.Zeigt das Display trotz Messleitungstauschs Overload („OL”) an, so ist die gemessene Halbleiterstrecke unterbrochen. 6.Zeigt das Display in beiden Anschlussrichtungen, also auch nach dem Tausch der Messleitungen, einen Spannungswert nahe Null an, so ist die Halbleiterstrecke kurzgeschlossen. Die Polarität des Bauelements ist wie folgt feststellbar: Wenn Sie z. B. die Diode mit dem Messgerät verbunden haben und das Gerät zeigt eine Spannung an, so liegt die rote Messleitung (an Buchse „V/Ω”) an der Anode des Bauelements. 10. Durchgangsprüfung Die Durchgangsprüfung ermöglicht den Test von Stromkreisen, Leitungen, Bauelementen usw. auf elektrischen Durchgang (d. h., Widerstandswerte unter ca. 150 Ω). Achtung - Vor der Messung von Widerständen, Kontinuität (Durchgang), Dioden den Strom des Stromkreises abschalten und alle Kondensatoren entladen. Bedienung: 1. Schalten Sie den Drehschalter auf (CAP/Ω/ ) und wählen Sie mit der Taste „MODE” die Durchgangsprüfung (Anzeige „ “) an. 2. Stecken Sie den Stecker der roten Messleitung in die Messbuchse V/Ω und den der schwarzen Messleitung in die Messbuchse COM. 3. Verbinden Sie die Messleitungen mit dem Messobjekt, z. B. einem zu überprüfenden Leiterzug. 15 4. Liegt der Widerstand des Messobjekts unter ca. 150 Ω, so ertönt der Summer und der exakte Widerstand wird im Display angezeigt. 11. Kapazitätsmessung Achtung! Entladen Sie jeden Kondensator vor der Messung! Im Kondensator gespeicherte Restspannung kann das Messgerät zerstören! Entladen Sie den Kondensator nicht durch einen Kurzschluss, sondern durch Überbrücken der Anschlüsse mit einem 100 kΩ-Widerstand. - Verbinden Sie die Messleitungen niemals mit einer Spannungsquelle. Dies zerstört das Messgerät. - Messen Sie zur Sicherheit vor einer Kapazitätsmessung nach, ob sich noch eine Restladung im Kondensator befindet (DCV-Bereich benutzen). Bedienung 1. Schalten Sie den Drehschalter auf„CAP/Ω/ / ” und wählen Sie mit der Taste „MODE” die Kapazitätsmessung (Anzeige „nF”) 2. Stecken Sie den Stecker der roten Messleitung in die Messbuchse V/Ω und den der schwarzen Messleitung in die Messbuchse COM. 3.Schließen Sie den zu testenden Kondensator an die Messspitzen an. Elkos sind polrichtig anzuschließen (+ an Rot, – an Schwarz). Da die Ladevorgänge im Kondensator eine gewisse Zeit beanspruchen, erfolgt die Anzeige um bis zu 30 s verzögert. Dies ist kein Fehler, sondern systembedingt. Warten Sie eine stabile Anzeige ab, bevor Sie den Messwert ablesen. Bitte beachten: - Ein defekter Kondensator äußert sich mit der Anzeige „Null” bzw. um Null herum in allen Bereichen, wenn er unterbrochen ist. - Beachten Sie, dass Elektrolytkondensatoren innerhalb ihres Toleranzbereiches erhebliche Streuungen aufweisen können. - Restspannungen im Kondensator, beschädigte Isolierschichten/Dielektrika können erhebliche Ergebnisverfälschungen hervorrufen. 16 12. Frequenz-/Tastverhältnismessung Bedienung: 1. Schalten Sie den Drehschalter auf den Frequenzmessbereich (Hz%). 2. Stecken Sie den Stecker der roten Messleitung in die Messbuchse V/Ω und den der schwarzen Messleitung in die Messbuchse COM. 3. Verbinden Sie die Messleitungen mit dem Messobjekt. Jetzt wird die Frequenz angezeigt. 4. Für Tastverhältnismessungen drücken Sie die Taste „Hz%“. 13. Temperaturmessung - Verbinden Sie die Messeingänge niemals mit einer Spannungsquelle. Dies zerstört das Messgerät. Bedienung: 1. Schalten Sie den Drehschalter auf „° C” oder „° F”. 2. Stecken Sie die Anschlüsse des Temperatursensors polrichtig in die Buchsen „COM” und „V/Ω”. 3. Führen Sie die Messpitze des Temperatursensors an das Messobjekt und warten Sie, falls möglich, ca. 30 Sek. ab, bis ein stabiler Messwert angezeigt wird. 4. Trennen Sie den Temperatursensor von den Messbuchsen, bevor Sie in eine andere Messart schalten. 14. Sicherungswechsel Achtung! Schalten Sie das Gerät ab und entfernen Sie die Messleitungen aus den Messbuchsen, bevor Sie das Gerät öffnen! Ersetzen Sie die internen Sicherungen stets nur durch eine Sicherung des jeweils gleichen Typs, nie einer höheren Stromstärke oder gar durch ein Provisorium! Unfallgefahr, Zerstörung des Gerätes und Garantieverlust sind die Folge. 1. Öffnen Sie die Rückwand durch Lösen der Schraube am Sicherungsfach. 17 2. Wechseln Sie die defekte Sicherung aus: 400 mA-Bereich: 0,5 A/1000 V F 10-A-Bereich: 10 A/1000 V F 3. Setzen Sie die Abdeckung wieder ein und sichern Sie diese durch Festziehen der Schraube. Arbeiten Sie erst wieder mit dem Gerät, wenn das Gehäuse komplett und sicher verschlossen ist. 15.
