System introduction

The system is a single stage parallel circuit photovoltaic inverter. As opposed to traditional

photovoltaic inverters, no expensive and bulky batteries are required. Hence, eliminating

large expenses on battery maintenance. It can convert photovoltaic DC energy via solar

panel modules and inverts collected energy into alternate current, which is then fed directly

into the power grid. Such design can benefit from both direct power generating and energy

conservation. The control panel adopts Digital Signal Processor (DSP), with the most

advanced digital control technology, to increase power conversion efficiency and

supplementary functions. Output stage circuit is of single stage with high frequency

switchable IGBT. The circuit design has the advantage of being both simple and high

efficiency. PV inverter system can be monitored remotely via software. It provides users with

convenient power monitoring and recording functions without the need of additional

monitoring systems.

2. Installation

Warning : All electrical installation shall be done in accordance

with local and national codes ANSI/NFPA 70.

Warning : Connecting the Soleil 2000 to the electrical grid shall

only be performed by qualified personnel and only after formal

approval from the utility company.

Caution : For proper circuit isolation, use 2.0KW rated isolating

transformer model SYST1201 supplied by Samlex Solar between

the output of the unit and the utility power line connection.

Placement of Soleil 2000

Soleil 2000 can be installed indoor

where sufficient air circulation is available with ambient

temperature less then 50℃.

Outdoor installation should be under controlled environment where no direct sunlight

would reach, as excessive heating would damage internal components and should minimize

exposure to rain despite her high protection class IP 65 ( NEMA 3R).

The unit should be installed in a location normally inaccessible to persons.

Avoid mounting on wall of resonant materials like wooden

or plastic panels as Soleil 2000

may slightly vibrate when working under load.

Please install this unit at eye-height (over 1 meter),

so that all information and status from

LCD display can be read easily. Also please provide sufficient space on both sid

es of the unit

so that Cautions and Ratings would be easily visible.

Mount only on firm background and with correct position as below :

Fig. 2-1 mount straight or tilted to the back nevermount tilted to front

Outdoor Installation shall not proceed on rainy day. High humidity within the unit may

www.samlexamerica.com Toll free 1-800-561-5885

eventually damage the electronics that are sensitive to humidity.

Ambient temperature should be between –20°C and +50°C.

Heat sink may reach over 70 oC, so pay special attention to air circulation for sufficient

heat dissipation. For indoor unit, please provide external ventilation.

Mounting of Soleil 2000

Place the mounting plate of Soleil 2000 with the slots on two sides bending inwards

against the designated surface of the wall and mark the holes of the screw.

Drill the holes and hammer in the wall anchors. If you are mounting the unit on wooden

wall, be sure that the wall is thick enough for penetration of the screws 1and1/2 “ depth

into it.

Place the mounting plate against the wall again with the slots bending outwards and

fasten the four screws into their respective holes until the mounting plate is firmly held

against the wall.

Fig. 2-2 Mounting plate

Mount the unit on the mounting plate. Be sure that the six hooks

from the side brackets of

the unit get into their respective fixtures on the slots of the plate and settle down.

To secure the unit, fasten a screw on the hole at the left bottom hook of the unit, as in

Fig 2-3.

3. Wiring process

The photovoltaic inverter wiring is as shown above.

Warning :National Electrical Code (NEC) requires that the inverter

connected to a dedicated circuit and no other outlets or device may be

connected to this circuit. See NEC Section 690-64(b)

Warning : Follow local electrical codes and the National Electrical

Code (NEC), ANSI/NFPA 70. Use copper conductors only with

minimum 12 AWG, 105℃, 600V wire for all connections with the

Soleil 2000.

Power cable selection

AC wire: Black copper wires of 12 AWG or above should be used for alternate current

output.

Ground wire: For enclosure grounding, green or yellowish green copper wires of

12AWG or above should be used.

DC wire: For input to the unit

from solar panels, the cross section area is dependent on the

length of the wire. Identifiable colored copper wires of 12 AWG or above, for both positive

and negative power supplies should be used.
