Common Questions

What does "zero transfer time" mean?

Zero transfer time (0ms) means the inverter switches instantly from mains power to battery power in the event of an outage. This is crucial for sensitive electronics like computers and servers, ensuring uninterrupted operation.

Can this inverter operate without batteries?

Yes, a key feature of this Iconica hybrid inverter is its ability to power AC loads directly from the solar panel input, even without a battery bank connected.

What type of batteries are compatible?

This hybrid inverter is suitable for 48V flooded and sealed GEL/AGM lead-acid batteries with pre-defined charging programs. A user-defined battery type with customisable settings is also available for other lead-acid battery types.

Can I expand my system with more inverters?

Yes, this inverter supports parallel operation with up to 8 additional identical units, allowing for large-scale system expansion up to 45kW total capacity. It also supports three-phase configuration with parallel connection kits (sold separately).

Installation Notes

  • Installation should be performed by a qualified professional to ensure safety and compliance with local regulations.
  • Ensure adequate ventilation around the inverter to prevent overheating.
  • The solar array must meet the minimum MPPT input voltage of 60V DC (achieved by connecting multiple panels in series) to enable solar charging or direct load operation.
  • Refer to the detailed user manual for comprehensive wiring diagrams and operational instructions.

Before You Buy

  • Verify your total power requirements (continuous and surge) to ensure this 5000W inverter meets your needs.
  • Confirm your battery bank voltage is 48V for compatibility.
  • Consider future expansion needs; parallel connection kits are sold separately if you plan to link multiple units.
  • Review the MPPT operating voltage range (60-115V DC) to match your solar panel configuration.

Always verify product specifications and compatibility with your specific system components before purchase. Consult a qualified installer for system design and installation advice.
