AEA 5000 - Self-consumption cabinet with storage
1. Product presentation
The AEA 5000 cabinet was developed with the aim of delivering a reliable power supply from various
sources of conventional and renewable energy.
This cabinet promotes self-production and facilitates self-consumption of the electrical energy
generated, in order to reduce the consumption of electricity from the electrical network.
The AEA 5000 cabinet offers the possibility of measuring and optimizing a single-phase consumption
point and controlling a resistive domestic hot water tank (option).
1.1 Dimensions
AEA 5000 Slim
AEA 5000+
Warning
Do not put anything on it.
Leave a clearance of at least 5 cm on the sides and back of the cabinet, and at least 20 cm
above the cabinet.

1.4 Safety instructions and warning
Attention
Any damage resulting from non-compliance with this user manual will void the warranty! We do
not accept any liability for damage to property or personal injury caused by incorrect handling or
failure to observe the safety instructions.
From a safety point of view, this equipment has left the factory in perfect condition. In order to
maintain this equipment in good condition and to ensure its correct use without risk, the user must
observe the safety instructions and warnings contained in this manual. In industrial installations, the
accident prevention regulations for electrical installations and equipment must be observed.
The installation of this type of equipment must always be carried out by a competent professional.
Opening covers or disassembling parts may expose live parts; before working on the equipment, it
must be disconnected from all voltage sources. However, the unit's capacitors may still be charged
even when the AEA3000+ has been disconnected. The AEA3000+ cabinet must be installed in a room
with an ambient temperature. If the unit is no longer functioning properly, it should be disconnected
from the power supply and prevented from being switched on again. In this case, contact your
installer.
Please observe the following pictograms:
Caution. On the product label,
this symbol indicates that the
notice must be consulted. In
this manual, this symbol
indicates important
information.
Direct current
This device is CE approved and
complies with national and
European guidelines.
1.5 Protective device
A short circuit protection system must be fitted to the 24 volt DC supply to the PLC. These fuses shall
be sized according to the number of devices in series behind the feeder.
1.6 Elimination
Old electronic devices are recyclable products that should not be thrown in the trash. If
the device reaches the finish of its life, it must be disposed of in accordance with the legal
regulations in force at the recovery centres in your municipality. Disposal in household
waste is prohibited.
1.7 Cleaning
For cleaning, use a clean, dry, antistatic, lint-free cloth without corrosive products.

1.8 Identification of the AEA 5000
To identify the AEA 5000, a label with a barcode is attached to the inside of the cabinet door. The
serial number (SN) is shown in the third row of the table.

1.9 Operating principle
Energy from the renewable source is used for consumption as a priority. If there is excess energy
production, it is stored in the battery. If the battery reaches a full charge level, the power of the panel
will be limited so as not to send power to the grid (in case of sale to the grid, refer to paragraph 2.4)
For the case where the renewable energy production is insuffisante, the additional energy needed for
consumption is provided primarily by the battery. If the battery reaches a low charge level, the
missing energy is drawn from the power grid.
In case the demand is higher than the maximum power of the cabinet, the additional power is
supplied by the grid.

2. Commissioning
2.1 Installation of the batteries
The AEA 5000 cabinet is designed to accommodate Phenix Batteries. For further information on the
batteries, please refer to the enclosed manual. The batteries are delivered with their power cables.
The communication cable to be connected to the battery is already connected in the cabinet.
2.2 Installation of batteries
Caution
Before dismantling the door, make sure that the power sources are switched off via all
circuit breakers.
2.2.1 Removing the front door
1. Unscrew the 4 screws above the cabinet and lift the roof.
2. Pull out the front of the cabinet
2.2.2 Installing several batteries
1. Slide the battery on the guide rails to the bottom to leave room for
the next one. Facing the cabinet, the DB9 communication socket should be
on the left.
2. Slide the second battery onto the guide rails, always with the DB9
socket on the left.
