1. Introduction

1.1. Introduction

This manual describes TRITEC photovoltaic inverters. These products are among the most tech-

nologically advanced and efficient inverters on the market and are designed to supply the owner

with reliable solar energy for many years.

Illustration 1.1: TRI-Xi Range - Outdoor with Display

CE marking - This certifies the conformity of the equipment with the regula-

tions which apply in accordance with the directives 89/336/EWG and 72/23/

EWG.

2. Function Description

2.1. Definition of Operation Modes

The inverter has four modes:

Standby mode:

In standby mode, the inverter is ready to switch into connecting mode. As decision variable the

input voltage of the PV generator is used. If the input voltage exceeds a preset nominal value,

the inverter shifts from “standby” to “connecting”, or continues into the operation mode “OFF” if

the PV voltage drops.

Connecting mode:

After performing the system tests, which check whether all connection conditions are met, the

inverter goes from standby mode to connecting mode. During the specified cut-in time, the in-

verter continues testing the system values and connects the inverter to the grid if the system tests

are okay. The minimum cut-in time is specified by the supplier and authorities and can vary from

region to region.

Grid mode:

In this mode, the inverter is connected to the grid and supplies power to the grid. The inverter is

only uncoupled from the grid in case of abnormal grid conditions or when PV power is not available.

Off:

If there is no PV power available to supply the inverter, the inverter waits ten minutes (specified

value) before it disengages. In this mode, the power supply to all processors is switched off to

conserve energy. This is the normal night mode.

2.1.1. Grid Surveillance

In order to safeguard the people working on AC power lines and the inverter, the inverter shuts

down in the event of abnormal grid conditions or failures. The inverter continuously monitors grid

voltage and frequency by means of an internal control circuit. Subsequently, the inverter will re-

connect as soon as the grid is within limits.

2.1.2. PV Configuration

Upon connecting to grid an automatic test of the PV module wiring is performed by the inverter.

This test is made in order to determine the wiring configuration of the modules. It is established

whether the modules are connected in individual string configuration or in parallel string config-

uration and the inverter is automatically configured accordingly.

The test works by activating the inputs one by one. The test takes 1-2 minutes and the inverter

continues to produce energy meanwhile.

For TRI-Xi 5.4, 2 out of 3 DC modules must be powered for the test to run. If not enough PV

power is available to power 2 modules, the test is postponed until sufficient PV power is available

for the second DC module to run.

2. Function Description

4L00410353-02

For inverters with display, the result of the test can be read in menu B in the display menu called

PV configuration. Upon test completion the display will automatically show the PV configuration

detected; however, only if the buttons on the display have not been used in the past 3 minutes.

The status field may show the following:

Display Text Description

IDLE PV configuration test has not yet been run. Shown before the inverter con-

nects to grid.

OFF PV configuration test is disabled. Applicable to TRI-Xi 1.8 and to inverters

where the test is otherwise disabled.

WAITING The PV configuration test is ready to run, but only solar radiation for one PV

input is available. (Applicable to TRI-Xi 5.4 , the inverter can only determine

the configuration of all three modules, when two are running)

TECTING

The PV configuration test is running. No result yet.

INDIVIDUAL The PV modules are connected in individual string configuration

PARALLEL 1-2* The PV configuration has ended, concluding that inputs 1 and 2 are connected

in parallel string configuration.

PARALLEL 1-3* The PV configuration has ended, concluding that inputs 1 and 3 are connected

in parallel string configuration.

PARALLEL 2-3* The PV configuration has ended, concluding that inputs 2 and 3 are connected

in parallel string configuration.

PARALLEL 1-2-3 The PV configuration has ended, concluding that inputs 1, 2 and 3 are con-

nected in parallel string configuration.

Table 2.1: PV Configuration Test Status Field Text

*) The “PARALLEL 1-2” is only allowed for the TRI-Xi 3.6 inverter. The “PARALLEL 1-2”, “PARALLEL

1-3”, and “PARALLEL 2-3” is not allowed for the TRI-Xi 5.4 inverter.

2.1.3. LEDs

The green LED indicators show the production in percentage of the nominal inverter power rating.

The leftmost green LED is always lit when the inverter is connected to the grid. While connecting

to grid both the red LED and the leftmost green LED will be on. When the inverter is off grid, the

red LED to the left is lit to indicate that the inverter is in standby mode. No green LEDs are lit. If

no LED’s are on the inverter is off. If the inverter is forced into standby mode because of an event

in the inverter or the peripheral connections, e.g. disconnection from the grid, the red LED starts

flashing.

For a description of events, please refer to the section on

Troubleshooting

2.1.4. Display

Through the integrated display on the inverter front, the user has access to all information about

the PV system and the inverter. When the inverter is in OFF mode (at night), the inverter can be

activated by pressing the left button (ESC).

Table 2.4: Overview Menu Structure B

*) The PV2 and PV3 menus are only displayed in inverters equipped with two or three inputs.

In menu section A the display will continue to show the menu point last chosen by the user.

In menu B the display automatically switches to menu A when there has been no keyboard activity

for 3 minutes.

If the inverter is off grid and no keys have been pressed for a certain number of seconds, the

display will automatically switch to the operation mode display.

If the inverter is on grid and there has been no keyboard activity for 3 minutes, the display au-

tomatically switches to the display Production today. When the PV configuration test initiates and

terminates the display temporarily changes to menu B to show the state of the PV configuration

test.

If the inverter is disconnected from the grid because of a failure, the red LED will start ﬂashing,

and the display automatically switches to menu B, where the event is shown.

2. Function Description

8L00410353-02

If an earthing fault occurs, the display will indicate this by a flash of the lit green LEDs. The display

will change to “current event”, if it has not been operated in the past 10 minutes. The inverter

will continue to produce energy. In case an earth fault occurs, this does not indicate an inverter

error and technical assistance must be called to check the PV panel connection.

Only applicable if earth fault detection is enabled. By default, earth fault detection is enabled for

the following countries: Austria, France and Spain.
