As an electronic device frequently used in daily life in off-grid areas, we need to understand the correct use of off grid solar inverters, their functions, and their applications.
1. The hybrid off grid inverter power must be greater than the rated power of the electrical appliance used
Considering that some electrical appliances have a high current when starting, an off grid hybrid solar inverter with a higher output power should be selected. The power of the off grid solar inverter must be greater than the total power of all electrical appliances combined to ensure the normal operation of all electrical appliances.
2. The DC voltage of the hybrid off grid inverter should match the battery voltage
If a battery needs to be connected during the operation of the off grid hybrid solar inverter, and the off grid solar inverter has indicated the DC power supply (such as 12V, 24V, etc.) to be connected, then the voltage of the battery you are connected to must be consistent with it. If the hybrid off grid inverter voltage is DC12V, then the voltage of your battery must also be 12V, otherwise the off grid hybrid solar inverter will not work or be damaged.
3. The positive and negative poles must be connected in pairs
The positive pole of the off grid solar inverter must be connected to the positive pole of the battery (red), and the negative pole of the off grid solar inverter must be connected to the negative pole of the battery (black). Only when the positive and negative poles are correctly connected can the hybrid off grid inverter and battery work properly to supply power to the electrical appliances.
4. Charging usage (some users may not need this function)
There are various charging methods for the hybrid inverter of Xindun Power, including solar charging, mains charging, or generator charging. Although most of the time it may be off grid, when your mains power is available, you can also use mains power to charge the battery as a backup power source.
4.1 Connect the mains power to the AC input, connect the battery to the hybrid inverter correctly as required, connect the positive pole to the positive pole (red to red), and connect the negative pole to the negative pole (black to black). Turn on the relevant switch, and the built-in AC charger of the hybrid inverter will convert AC power into DC power, automatically charge the battery, and automatically switch to float charging when sufficient.
4.2 When solar energy is connected to the DC input, the off grid hybrid solar inverter charges the battery through the controller, which can adjust the charging and discharging of the battery to improve charging and discharging efficiency.
5. Uninterruptible power supply
5.1 In addition to the charging function, the hybrid inverter also has an automatic bypass function. When the mains power is input, it can automatically bypass and output to the load. When the mains power is cut off, it automatically switches to battery power output. The DC power of the battery is converted into AC power through the off grid solar inverter, which continuously supplies power to the load.
5.2 When the solar energy is sufficient during the day, the hybrid off grid inverter can directly convert DC solar energy into usable AC power supply for the load to use. When the solar energy supply is insufficient at night, it can switch to battery mode. The DC power supply of the battery is converted into AC power supply for the load to use through the off grid hybrid solar inverter, achieving uninterrupted power supply throughout the day.
6. AC and DC Outputs, Application Scenarios
Xindun Power off grid solar inverters not only supply power to most AC appliances, but also have DC 12v and 5v output ports, which can be plugged into the interface to directly supply power to mobile phones, laptops, light bulbs, etc.
Xindun Power hybrid off grid inverters can be used not only indoors, including: homes, agriculture and industry, small and large commercial centres, important data centres, etc., but also as portable mobile power, such as for cars, camping, caravans, outdoor stalls, etc. So choose Xindun off grid hybrid solar inverter to meet your needs for different applications, consult our customer service for specific inverter types.
7. Environment
The environment in which the off grid solar inverter is placed should also be noted. It should be kept dry and ventilated, especially not in contact with rain and explosive materials, and do not cover other things on top of the hybrid off grid inverter when it is in use, and the temperature of the off grid hybrid solar inverter should not exceed 40 degrees when it is running and 60 degrees when it is stored.
8. Other precautions
The interval between two consecutive power ons of the off grid solar inverter should preferably be more than 5 seconds, so that the hybrid off grid inverter will not be prone to burn out. And you must bear in mind that you must not open the off grid hybrid solar inverter for operation while it is in use, otherwise it will easily become dangerous. If you want to connect the off grid solar inverter to the battery, you must also be careful not to have any other metal substances on your hands, otherwise a short circuit could easily occur and cause harm to the human body.
In conclusion, it is very important to understand how to use the hybrid off grid inverter and its role. Although these are relatively minor issues, it is precisely because of the minor issues that it is difficult to draw attention to them. Many off grid hybrid solar inverter damages and safety accidents occur due to carelessness on your part. If you take these precautions, your off grid solar inverter may have a much longer service life and be more efficient than others' inverters.
