Note z The first thing after receiving is to check for any visible damage to the package or to the inverter. If there is something suspected, contact the shipping company and local dealer before installing. z Only qualified electricians are allowed to operate on the inverter. z Do not carry out any wiring and inspection or changing components when the power supply is applied. z This product can cause a residual current in the external protective earth conductor. Where a residual current-operated protective (RCD) or monitoring

(RCM) device is strongly recommend to be used for protection in a case of direct or indirect contact, only an RCD or RCM of Type B is allowed on the supply side of this product. z Ensure that there is no electromagnetic interference from other electrical and electronic equipments on the installation site. z Do not refit the inverter unauthorized.

6

iMars grid-tied solar inverters

Safety precautions

z All the electric installation needs to be compliance with the national or local laws and standards. z The temperature of individual parts or the enclosure of the inverter – especially the heat sink may become hot in normal operation. There is a danger of burning. Do not touch. z Do not open the cover of inverters unauthorized. The electrical parts and components inside the inverter are electrostatic. Take measurements to avoid electrostatic discharge during relevant operation. z The inverter must be reliably grounded.

z Ensure that DC and AC side circuit breakers have been disconnected and wait at least 5 minutes before wiring and checking.

Note: Technical personnel who can perform installation, wiring, commissioning, maintenance, troubleshooting and replacement of the iMars series grid-tied solar inverters must meet the following requirements: z Operators need professional training. z Operators must read this manual completely and master the related safety precautions. z Operators need to be familiar with the relevant safety regulations for electrical systems. z Operators need to be fully familiar with the composition and operating principle of the entire grid-tied photovoltaic power generation system and related standards of the countries/regions in which the project is located. z Operators must wear personal protective equipment.

1.2.1 Delivery and installation z Keep the package and unit complete, dry and clean during storage and delivery. z Please remove and install the inverter with two or more people, because of the inverter is heavy. z Remove and install the inverter with appropriate tools to ensure safe and normal operation and avoid physical injury or death. The people also need mechanical protective measures, such as protective shoes and work clothes. z Only qualified electricians are allowed to install the inverter. z Do not put and install the inverter on or close to combustible materials.

7

iMars grid-tied solar inverters

Safety precautions

z Keep the installation site away from children and other public places. z Remove the metal jewelry such as ring and bracelet before installation and electrical connection to avoid electric shock. z

Do cover solar modules with light-tight materials. Exposed to sunlight, solar modules will output dangerous voltage. z The inverter input voltage does not exceed the maximum input voltage; otherwise inverter damage may occur. z The positive and negative pole of solar modules can not be grounded, otherwise irrecoverable damage may occur. z Ensure the proper grounding of the inverter, otherwise, improper connection or no grounding may cause stop of the inverter. z Ensure reliable installation and electrical connection. z When the photovoltaic generator cells are exposed to light (even if it is dim), the generator supplies DC voltage to the inverter.

Note: iMars series grid-tied solar inverters are only for crystalline silicon solar modules.

1.2.2 Grid-tied operation z Only qualified electricians are allowed to operate the inverter under the permission of local power departments. z All electrical connections must meet the electrical standards of the countries/regions in which the project is located. z Ensure reliable installation and electrical connection before operation. z Do not open the cover of inverter during operation or voltage is present.

1.2.3 Maintenance and inspection z Only qualified electricians are allowed to perform the maintenance, inspection, and components replacement of the inverter. z Contact with the local dealer or supplier for maintenance. z In order to avoid irrelevant personnel from entering the maintenance area during maintenance, temporary warning labels must be placed to warn non-professionals to enter or usefence for isolation. z Firstly disconnect all power supplies of the grid to the inverter before any maintenance, and then disconnect the breakers and wait for at least 5 minutes until the inverter is discharged before maintenance.

8

iMars grid-tied solar inverters

Safety precautions

(5) Clean the inverter heat sink and fan with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner.

(6) Install the screws and cover of the heat sink or fan case to their original positions.

(7) Reinstall the inverter to its original position in accordance with section 4.

(8) Repeat the operation contents of section 5.1.

(9) Restart the inverter.

Replace the fan

If the inverter has high temperatures or the fan is running abnormally, replace the fan. This operation must be performed by professionals. z The inverter must be shut down and all power inputs of the inverter must be disconnected before maintenance work begins. z

Wait at least 10 minutes, the maintenance work can only be carried out after the capacitor inside the inverter has been discharged. z

Only professional electricians can perform fan maintenance and replacement work.

The fan replacement steps are as follows:

(1) Disconnect AC circuit breaker.

(2) Turn the DC switch to the "OFF" position.

(3) Wait at least 10 minutes.

(4) Disconnect all electrical connections from the bottom of the inverter.

34

Operation

(5) Lift the inverter with the help of others and remove the inverter from the wall.

(6) Place the inverter on the operating platform.

(7) Disassemble the fan case as shown in Figure 5.2.

(8) As shown in Figure 5.3, remove the damaged inverter fan, install the good fan to the original position, and connect the fan power supply and control cable.

Figure 5.3 Replace the Fan

(9) Install the screws and cover of the heat sink or fan box to their original positions.

(10) Reinstall the inverter to its original position in accordance with section 4.

(11) Repeat the operation in section 5.1.

(12) Restart the inverter.

Note z Once the inverter stops due to an alarm, it is forbidden to start the machine immediately. The cause should be identified and all faults must be eliminated before starting up. Inspections should be carried out in strict accordance with the procedures in section 5.1.

6.1 LED indicators

There are three LED indicators on the panel:

(1) “ Run ” , operation indicator, green;

(2) “ Warn ” recoverable fault indicator, yellow;

(3) “ Fault ” , unrecoverable fault indicator, red.

The inverter state includes 6 states of stand-by, self-inspection, power generation, recoverable fault and unrecoverable fault; LED indicators are on, off and blinking. Please refer to table 6-1 for detailed state of inverter and LED indicators state.

“ ”: LED indicator is off;

“ ” ( green), “ ” ( yellow), “ ” ( red): LED indicator is blinking at every 0.25S or 0.5S;

“ (Green), “ ” ( yellow), “ ” ( red): LED indicator is on.

Connection steps:

(1) Weld communication cables to the RS485 terminals of the inverter as Figure 7.4 shows.

Ensure the cable corresponds to the pin as table 7-1 shows and the welding is tight enough.

Figure 7.4 Detailed connection

(2) According to Table 7-1, connect the communication connector pinout and the user's device, make sure the connection is correct.

(3) Please download the monitoring software “ iMars WinExpert ” and its operation instruction.

7.2 Optional communication

The optional communication modes include Ethernet, WiFi, which also need corresponding communication parts and components. All operation parameters of the inverter are output from port “ RS485-M ” , and then to the communication devices, finally after convertering, to the monitoring system of upper PC as standard Ethernet, WiFi signal. See figure 7.1.
