2. DESCRIPTION

SinusMax - Superior engineering

Developed for professional duty, the range of inverters is suitable for the widest range

of applications. The design criteria have been to produce a true sine wave inverter

with optimised efficiency but without compromise in performance. Employing hybrid

HF technology, the result is a top quality product with compact dimensions, light in

weight and capable of supplying power, problem-free, to any load.

Extra start-up power

A unique feature of the SinusMax technology is very high start-up power.

Conventional high frequency technology does not offer such extreme performance.

These inverters, however, are well suited to power up difficult loads such as

compressors, electric motors and similar appliances.

Virtually unlimited power thanks to parallel and 3-phase operation capability

Up to 6 inverters can operate in parallel to achieve higher power output. Six 24/5000

units, for example, will provide 30 kVA output power. Operation in 3-phase

configuration is also possible.

To transfer the load to another AC source: the automatic transfer switch

If an automatic transfer switch is required, we recommend to using the MultiPlus or

Quattro instead. The switch is included in these products and the charger function of

the MultiPlus/Quattro can be disabled. Computers and other electronic equipment will

continue to operate without disruption because the MultiPlus/Quattro features a very

short switchover time (less than 20 milliseconds).

Programmable relay

The Inverter is equipped with a programmable relay, which by default is set as an

alarm relay. The relay can be programmed for all kinds of other applications however,

for example as a starter relay for a generating set.

Programmable with DIP switches or personal computer

The Inverter is supplied ready for use. The following features are available for

changing certain settings if desired:

─ The most important settings can be changed in a very simple manner, using DIP

switches.

─ All settings can be changed with a PC and free of charge software,

downloadable from our website www.victronenergy.com

4. INSTALLATION

This product may only be installed by a qualified electrical engineer.

4.1 Location

The product must be installed in a dry and well-ventilated area, as close as possible to

the batteries. There should be a clear space of at least 10 cm around the appliance for

cooling.

Excessively high ambient temperature will result in the following:

• Reduced service life.

• Reduced peak capacity, or shutdown of the inverter.

Never position the appliance directly above the batteries.

The Inverter is suitable for wall mounting. For mounting purposes, a hook and two

holes are provided at the back of the casing (see appendix G). The device can be

fitted either horizontally or vertically. For optimal cooling, vertical fitting is preferred.

The interior of the product must remain accessible after installation.

Try to keep the distance between the product and the battery to a minimum in order to

minimize cable voltage losses.

For safety purposes, this product should be installed in a heat-resistant

environment. You should prevent the presence of e.g. chemicals, synthetic

components, curtains or other textiles, etc., in the immediate vicinity.

4.3 Connection of the AC cabling

This is a Safety Class I product (supplied with a protective grounding

terminal).

The neutral output of the inverter is connected to the enclusure.

This to ensure proper functioning of a GFCI (or RCCB) to be installed in the

AC output of the Inverter.

The chassis of the product must be connected to ground, or the frame (of a

vehicle) or the ground plate or hull (of a boat).

The terminal block can be found on the printed circuit board, see Appendix A. Use a

three-wire cable with a flexible core and a cross section of 2.5 or 4 mm²

Procedure

The AC output cable can be connected directly to the terminal block "AC-out".

4.4 Optional Connections

A number of optional connections are possible:

4.4.1 Remote Control

The product can be remotely controlled in two ways.

- With an external switch (connection terminal H, see appendix A). Operates only if the

switch on the Inverter is set to “on”.

- With a Inverter Control panel (connected to one of the two RJ48 sockets C, see

appendix A). Operates only if the switch on the inverter is set to “on”.

Only one remote control can be connected, i.e. either a switch or a remote

control panel.

4.4.2. Programmable relay

The inverters are equipped with a multi-functional relay that by default is programmed

as an alarm relay. (VEConfigure software needed to change relay functionality).

12

4.4.3 Parallel Connection

The Inverter can be connected in parallel with several identical devices. To this end, a

connection is established between the devices by means of standard RJ45 UTP

cables. The system (Two or more Inverters plus optional control panel) will require

subsequent configuration (see Section 5).

In the event of connecting units in parallel, the following requirements must be met:

• A maximum of six units connected in parallel.

• Only identical devices with the same power ratings may be connected in parallel.

• Battery capacity should be sufficient.

• The DC connection cables to the devices must be of equal length and cross-

section.

• If a positive and a negative DC distribution point is used, the cross-section of the

connection between the batteries and the DC distribution point must at least

equal the sum of the required cross-sections of the connections between the

distribution point and the Inverter units.

• Place the units close to each other, but allow at least 10 cm for ventilation

purposes under, above and beside the units.

• UTP cables must be connected directly from one unit to the other (and to the

remote panel). Connection/splitter boxes are not permitted.

• Only one remote control means (panel or switch) can be connected to the

system.

4.4.4 Three-phase operation

The Inverter can also be used in 3-phase wye (Y) configuration. To this end, a

connection between the devices is made by means of standard RJ45 UTP cables (the

same as for parallel operation). The system (Inverters plus an optional control panel)

will require subsequently configuration (see Section 5).

Pre-requisites: see Section 4.4.3.

Note: the Inverter is not suitable for 3-phase delta (Δ) configuration.

5. CONFIGURATION

• Settings may only be changed by a qualified electrical engineer.

• Read the instructions thoroughly before implementing changes.

5.1 Standard settings: ready for use

On delivery, the Inverter is set to standard factory values. In general, these settings

are suitable fo stand-alone operation.

Standard factory settings

Inverter frequency 50 Hz

Inverter voltage 230 VAC

Stand-alone / parallel / 3-phase stand-alone

AES (Automatic Economy Switch) off

Programmable relay alarm function

5.2 Explanation of settings

Settings that are not self-explanatory are described briefly below. For further

information, please refer to the help files in the software configuration programs (see

Section 5.3).

Inverter frequency

Output frequency

Adjustability: 50Hz; 60Hz

Inverter voltage

Output voltage of the Inverter.

Adjustability: 210 – 245V

Stand-alone / parallel operation / 2-3 phase setting

Using several devices, it is possible to:

• increase total inverter power (several devices in parallel)

• create a 3-phase system.

To this end, the devices must be mutually connected with RJ45 UTP cables.

Standard device settings, however, are such that each device operates in stand-alone

operation. Reconfiguration of the devices is therefore required.

AES (Automatic Economy Switch)

If this setting is turned ‘on’, the power consumption in no-load operation and with low

loads is decreased by approx. 20%, by slightly 'narrowing' the sinusoidal voltage.

The AES Mode can be set with a DIP switch.

Applicable in stand-alone configuration only.

14

Search Mode (Applicable in stand-alone configuration only)

If search mode is ‘on’, the power consumption in no-load operation is decreased by

approx. 70%. In this mode the inverter is switched off in case of no load or very low

load, and switches on every two seconds for a short period. If the output current

exceeds a set level, the inverter will continue to operate. If not, the inverter will shut

down again.

Not adjustable with DIP switches.

The Search Mode “shut down” and “remain on” load levels can be set with

VEConfigure.

The standard settings are:

Shut down: 40 Watt (linear load)

Turn on: 100 Watt (linear load)

Programmable relay

By default, the programmable relay is set as an alarm relay, i.e. the relay will de-

energise in the event of an alarm or a pre-alarm (inverter almost too hot, ripple on the

input almost too high, battery voltage almost too low). Not adjustable with DIP

switches.

5.3 Configuration by computer

All settings can be changed by means of a computer.

The most common settings can be changed by means of DIP switches (see Section

5.5).

NOTE:

This manual is intended for products with firmware xxxx400 or higher (with x

any number)

The firmware number can be found on the microprocessor, after removing the

front panel.

It is possible to update older units, as long as that same 7 digit number starts with

either 26 or 27. When it starts with 19 or 20 you have an old microprocessor and it is

not possible to update to 400 or higher.

For changing settings with the computer, the following is required:

• VEConfigure3 software: can be downloaded free of charge at

www.victronenergy.com.

• A MK3-USB (VE.Bus to USB) interface.

Alternatively, the Interface MK2.2b (VE.Bus to RS232) can be used (RJ45 UTP

cable needed).

5.3.1 VE.Bus Quick Configure Setup

VE.Bus Quick Configure Setup is a software program with which systems with a

maximum of three Inverters (parallel or three phase operation) can be configured in a

simple manner. VEConfigure3 forms part of this program.

You can download the software free of charge at www.victronenergy.com .

5.3.2 VE.Bus System Configurator

For configuring advanced applications and/or systems with four or more Inverters,

VE.Bus System Configurator software must be used. You can download the

software at www.victronenergy.com . VEConfigure3 forms part of this program.

5.4 Configuration with DIP switches

A number of settings can be changed using DIP switches (see appendix A, position I).

Procedure:

• Turn the Inverter on, preferably unloaded.

• Set the DIP switches for:

o AES (Automatic Economy Switch)

o Inverter voltage

o Inverter frequency

• To store the settings after the required values have been set: press the 'Up'

button for 2 seconds (upper button to the right of the DIP switches, see

appendix A, position J).

16

Remarks:

- DIP switches ds8,ds7 ,ds6 ,ds2 and ds1 are not assigned and should remain off.

- The DIP switch functions are described in 'top to bottom' order. Since the uppermost

DIP switch has the highest number (8), descriptions start with the switch numbered 5.

- These settings are not relevant for slaves. They are however relevant for followers. If

you don’t want to bother about an Inverter being a master/slave/follower then the

easiest and most straight forward way is to set all settings identically on all Inverters.

5.4.1 AES (Automatic Economy Switch)

Procedure: set ds5 to the required value:

ds5

off = AES off

on = AES on

Note: The AES option is only effective if the unit is used ‘stand alone’.

5.4.2 Inverter voltage

Procedure: set ds4 to the required value:

ds4

off = 240V

on = 230V

5.4.3 Inverter frequency

Procedure: set ds3 to the required value:

ds3

off = 60Hz

on = 50Hz

5.4.4. Important note on ds2 and ds1

If the last 3 digits of the firmware is in the 100 range (so the firmware

number is xxxx1xx (with x any number) then ds1 & ds2 can be used to set

the inverter in stand-alone, parallel or three-phase. Please consult the

appropriate manual.

Appendix

7.2 VE.Bus LED indications

Inverters included in a VE.Bus system (a parallel or 3-phase arrangement) can

provide so-called VE.Bus LED indications. These LED indications can be subdivided

into two groups: OK codes and error codes.

7.2.1 VE.Bus OK codes

If the internal status of a device is in order but the device cannot yet be started

because one or more other devices in the system indicate an error status, the devices

that are in order will indicate an OK code. This facilitates error tracing in a VE.Bus

system, since devices not requiring attention are easily identified as such.

Important: OK codes will only be displayed if a device is not inverting!

• The "inverter on" LED must flash.

• A flashing "overload" LED indicates that the device can perform inverter

operation.

• A flashing "temperature" LED indicates that the device is not blocking

charge operation. (This is just a formal indication which originates from the

relationship with the Multi. This indication has no special meaning on a

Inverter)

NOTE: The "low battery" LED can function together with the OK code that indicates

that the device does not block charge.

7.2.2 VE.Bus error codes

If a VE.Bus error occurs (example: a broken UTP cable) the system will switch off and

the ‘inverter on’ LED will flash.

If such an error occurs one should switch all units off, verify all cabling and switch the

units on again.

Additional information about the errror can be retrieved from the Inverter with the

VE.BUS System Configurator or the VE.BUS Quick Configure tool.
