2.3 System connection diagram
The diagram below shows the system application scenario of this product. A complete system consists of the
following components:

1. PV modules: converts light energy into DC energy, which can be used to charge the battery via an inverter or
directly inverted into AC power to supply the load.

2. Utility grid or generator: connected to the AC input, it can supply the load and charge the battery at the same
time. The system can also operate generally without the mains or generator when the battery and the PV
module power the load.

3. Battery: The role of the battery is to ensure the regular power supply of the system load when the solar energy
is insufficient and there is no mains power.

4. Home load: Various household and office loads can be connected, including refrigerators, lamps, televisions,
fans, air conditioners, and other AC loads.

5. Inverter: The energy conversion device of the whole system.

The actual application scenario determines the specific system wiring method.

5.5 Time-slot charging/discharging function
The ASF series is equipped with a time-slot charging and discharging function, which allows users to set different
charging and discharging periods according to the local peak and valley tariffs, so that the utility power and PV
energy can be used rationally.

When mains electricity is expensive, the battery inverter is used to carry the load; when the mains electricity is
cheap, the mains electricity is used to carry the load and charge, which can help customers to save electricity
costs to the greatest extent.

The user can turn on/off the time-slot charging/discharging function in setup menu parameter 46 and 53.and set
charging and discharging slot in parameter 40-45, 47-52. Below are examples for users to understand the function.

NOTICE
Before using this function for the first time, please set the local time in parameter items 54, 55, then the
user can set the corresponding time slot according to the local peak and valley tariff charges.

8.1 Protection features
No Protection Feature Instruction

When the charging current or power of the PV array configured

PV input current/power
1 exceeds the PV input rated value, the inverter will limit the input
limiting protection
power and charge at the rated.

If the PV voltage exceeds the maximum value allowed by the

2 PV input over-voltage hardware, the machine will report a fault and stop the PV boost to
output a sinusoidal AC wave.

At night, the battery is prevented from discharging through the PV

3 PV night reverse current module because the battery voltage is greater than the voltage of PV

module.

AC input over-voltage When the AC input voltage of each phase exceeds 140V, the mains
4 protection charging will be stopped and switched to the inverter mode.

5 protection charging will be stopped and switched to the inverter mode.

When the battery voltage reaches the over-voltage cut-off point, the
6 Battery over-voltage PV and the utility will automatically stop charging to prevent the
protection
battery from being overcharged and damaged.

When the battery voltage reaches the under-voltage cut-off point,

7 Battery under-voltage the inverter will automatically stop the battery discharge to prevent
protection
damage from over-discharging the battery.

After a period when the battery current exceeds that allowed by the
8 Battery over-current hardware, the machine will switch off the output and stop
protection
discharging the battery.

When a short-circuit fault occurs at the load output terminal, the AC

output is immediately turned off and turned on after 1 second.If the
9 AC output short-circuit output load terminal is still short-circuited after 3 attempts, the
protection
inverter must be manually restarted after first removing the short-
circuit fault from the load before the normal output can be restored.

When the internal temperature of the inverter is too high, the inverter

8.2 Maintenance
To maintain optimum and long-lasting working performance, we recommend that the following items are checked
twice a year.

1. Ensure that the airflow around the inverter is not blocked and remove any dirt or debris from the radiator.

2. Check that all exposed conductors are not damaged by sunlight, friction with other surrounding objects, dry rot,
insect or rodent damage, etc. The conductors need to be repaired or replaced if necessary.

3. Verify that the indications and displays are consistent with the operation of the equipment, note any faults or
incorrect displays and take corrective action if necessary.

4. Check all terminals for signs of corrosion, insulation damage, high temperatures or burning/discolouration and
tighten terminal screws.

5. Check for dirt, nesting insects and corrosion, clean as required.

6. If the lightning arrester has failed, replace the failed arrester in time to prevent lightning damage to the inverter
or other equipment of the user.

DANGER
• Make sure that the inverter is disconnected from all power sources and that the capacitors are fully
discharged before carrying out any checks or operations to avoid the risk of electric shock.

The Company shall not be liable for damage caused by :

1. Damage caused by improper use or use in a wrong location.

2. Photovoltaic modules with an open circuit voltage exceeding the maximum permissible voltage.

3. Damage caused by the operating temperature exceeding the restricted operating temperature range

4. Dismantling and repair of the inverter by unauthorised persons.

5. Damage caused by force majeure: damage during transport or handling of the inverter.
