Installation Cluster Inverter vision three

This page describes how to set up an energy system with several Inverter vision three devices. The Battery vision clusterbox enables the inverters to be operated together.

    Max. Number of devices

    A maximum of 4 Inverter vision three can be connected to the clusterbox if the emergency power outputs of the inverters are to be coupled in parallel operation.

    A maximum of 10 Inverter vision three can be connected to the clusterbox if no emergency power load is connected or the emergency power outputs of the inverters run in individual operation and are NOT coupled.

    Installing the inverters

    • Installing the inverter devices according to the Installation instructions
    • ATTENTION: the step connecting communication to the meter is not required for the individual devices
    • Max. Observe maximum distance of 50 m between first and last inverter
    • Do not put the inverter devices into operation yet!

    ATTENTION

    Max. Distance between the first and last inverter in the cluster system: 50 m.

    Max. Distance between first and last inverter

    Mounting the cluster box

    • Mark the fixing points
    • Fasten the cluster box with screws

    Installation of the cluster system

    Please note the Information on cable requirements for the communication connections between the devices.

    Cable routing

    Cable routing requirements: Power cables and communication cables should be routed in different cable ducts. The distance between the power cable and communication cable should be more than 200 mm. If the cables cross, the crossing angle should be 90°.

    The maximum distance between the first and last inverter in the cluster is 50 m.

    The maximum distance between the cluster box and the first inverter is 10 m. If the distance is greater, the additional power supply (4) for the Clusterbox must be installed.

    • Connect the communication cable to the inverter output of the Clusterbox and connect it to the first inverter
    • To protect the connection in wet room and outdoor installations, use the connector housings included in the scope of delivery

    Note: When using an installation cable, it may not be possible to fit self-assembled plugs through the plug housing. In this case, make sure that the plugs used are UV and weather-resistant for outdoor use and that the required IP rating IP65 is maintained.

    • Connecting communication between the inverters
    • Do not start the inverters yet!

    ATTENTION: The following step is only necessary if the serial number of the last inverter has one of the character combinations listed in the table in the 9th to 11th position. '(...)' can stand for letters and numbers.

    Examples:

    xxxxxxxx48Axxx --> Establish connection as shown in the next step

    xxxxxxxx52Dxxx --> Establish connection as shown in the next step

    xxxxxxxx57Jxxx --> Connection as shown in the next step does not need to be established  

    • Connect pin 1 and 2 of the last RJ45 connector to pin 5 or 6 of the communication connector
    • Set the two DIP switches on the plug of the last inverter to ON
    • Attach the waterproof RJ45 adapter
    • Connect the meter to the cluster box
    • Attach the waterproof RJ45 adapter
    • Connect the cluster box to the router

    Do not use the LAN socket. It is only intended for maintenance purposes!

    In exceptional cases a Wi-Fi connection for a wireless connector can be established via the settings in the Clusterbox WebUI to a Wi-Fi network in the vicinity of the Clusterbox.

    • Establishing a connector between meter and Manager

    ATTENTION

    If the distance between the Clusterbox and the first inverter is more than 10 m, the power supply via the RJ45 connections of the device is not sufficient and the additional power supply (4) included in the scope of delivery for the Clusterbox must be installed.

    • Set up additional power supply
    • Check that all devices are installed safely and reliably.
    • Check that all cables are connected correctly, securely and reliably.
    • Continue with the Commissioning the clusterbox
