1. About this manual EN This manual allows you to become acquainted with the product. Observe the safety regulations applicable for each country. You can contribute to the durability and reliability of the product during its use by handling it carefully. These are basic prerequisites for optimum use of your product. 1.1 Purpose of this manual This manual is part of the product and is only valid for the SOLIVIA 5.0 AP G3 TR. Store the manual in a safe place.
This symbol warns of a danger of electric shock due to the presence of high voltages. This symbol is a warning of general dangers. 2. Intended use The solar inverter connects a photovoltaic system to the public power grid. The solar inverter converts DC electricity into AC electricity, which is then fed into the public power grid. The solar inverter is intended for use in photovoltaic systems connected to a power grid. The solar inverter is not intended for mobile use.
●● The solar inverter contains no components that are to be maintained or repaired by the operator or installer. All repairs must be performed by Delta. ●● Observe all points in this installation and operation manual! ●● Before working on the solar inverter, you must disconnect it from the grid and the PV modules. ●● Do not disconnect any cables when the solar inverter is under load, as there is a risk of an arc fault.
5.1 Data evaluation and communication The integrated data display, processing and communication of the device enables easy operation of the solar inverter. Monitoring of the operational status and signaling of operational failures are capable of being called up over the device display. The data interface enables the downloading of data which can be evaluated with a PC system and guarantees continuous recording of operating data.
The solar inverter is functional in on-grid operation exclusively. An automated isolation point, which is approved by a certification agency, guarantees secure disconnection in case of circuit isolation or interruptions in power supply and avoids isolated operation. EN The disconnection equipment allows for automatic isolation for in-plant generation systems of nominal power ≤ 4.6 kVA, with single-phase parallel feed-in through the solar inverter into the grid. 5.3 Equipment overview (5) (4) (1) 1.
6. Installation Installation and commissioning must only be carried out by qualified electrical experts. The recommended local and national safety regulations should be complied with. To carry out an energy measurement, a meter must be attached between the grid feedin point and the solar inverter (in accordance with all local and national safety regulations).
7.2 Minimum requirements EN ●● Free convection around the solar inverter must not be impaired. ●● For proper air circulation to dissipate heat, allow a clearance of approx. 10 cm to the side and approx. 50 cm above and below the unit. ●● The grid impedance requirement at the supply terminal is to be observed (cable length, cable cross-section). ●● The recommended installation position is to be adhered to (vertical).
3. Place the solar inverter onto the mounting plate with at least two persons. 4. Fasten the supplied mounting nuts and washers on the threaded bolt intended for securing the device. 5. Check that the solar inverter is securely sealed. 200 320 Mounting plate 12 38 90 2.5 Ø1 12 6.5 Locking screw 7.5 Locking screw 150 319.5 410 ± 0.5 Ambient temperature The solar inverter can be operated in an ambient temperature between -25°C to +60°C.
7.6 Grid connection The grid (AC output) is connected over a Wieland RST25i3S AC connector. You can find the correct allocation on the screw-type terminal connection of the connector. The solar inverter must be connected to the grid over a three-core line (L, N, PE). The connected AC line must be switched potential-free before the disconnection or the insertion of the AC connector. The connection to the Wieland AC connector must be made with a flexible line and a conductor cross section of 4.0 mm².
The solar inverter has an insulation and grounding monitoring on the DC side. The options can be configured in the Setup menu “S -> Solar ISO / GND” (see „8.2.7.1 Submenu S: Solar ISO / GND“, page 31). The insulation monitoring has two modes: ●● ISO-ON-Error (the solar inverter is disconnected from the grid in the event of an insulation fault) ●● ISO-ON-Warning (the solar inverter indicates the fault but is not disconnected from the grid).
