Hi,
I am looking to buy a 5kW solis hybrid inverter, because it seems to be the only model I can find in the UK that will integrate with 48V LiFe
Model number is RHI-5K-48ES-5G.
I am trying to get my head around the badly worded manual and hopefully someone has this model (or similar) and can confirm its operation.
I want to use the battery and inverter with the following schedule
04:30 to sunrise -> Use the battery power available - charging battery from grid OFF
sunrise to sunset -> charge the battery from PV - charging battery from grid OFF
sunset to 12:30 -> Use the battery power available - charging battery from grid OFF
12:30 to 04:30 -> Charging battery from grid on - I have an economy tariff between these times so if the battery is at a very low state of charge, charge it from the grid during this period to a preset charge.
Repeat daily
I am confused by the instruction manual for the "self use" mode and the functions "time of use for self use" and "Charging from grid for self use", which suggests there is only one battery charge/discharge period and this is not possible ??
Does anyone have experience and if this schedule achievable with this inverter ?
Many Thanks !
