Hi,

For s:

Jinko 440w x 12 = 5,280w
Cworth 500w x 10 = 5,000w

Total 10,280w

Average sustained production per hour when skies are almost clear of clouds is 8,150wh

For batteries:

51.2v x 486ah (the max I am willing to discharge) = 24.8kwh

Bms is Jk with communication board and 2Amp active balancer

Full charge 55v, float at 54.9v

For inverter:

6kw Deye SUN-6K-OG01LP1-EU-AM2.

It use to be a 10.2kw sms, but i have documented my dissatisfaction with it, so I got the Deye instead. Besides, I realised I dont use more than 4kw at a time, and if eventually I will need more than 6kw at a time, I can always parallel the deye with another deye 6kw inverter to get 12kw.


For monitoring:

1. Inbuilt deye wifi for Deye cloud
2. Solarman
3. Solar Assistant Raspberry Pi 5

Current Load (they are not all turned on at the same time):

Average total daily load is 25kw - 30kw (24hrs)

13kw - 15kw is average night time load (7pm - 7am)

On average I have 50 percent battery left in the morning, except for multiple rainy days.

Is 48v a good cutoff voltage for lifepo4 battery??
dollarnaira: 12:06pm On Apr 22
bbally:


Please clear me as I want to learn more. 12v set up on powmr allowed max of 80v and 48v set up allowed max of 160v.
Are you saying you can subject your cc to 160v on a 12v battery configuration because it's within parameters?
Am just confused....
Attached was my cc before I changed to SMS Hybrid

You weren't wrong from onset?

How does that Nexus inverter AC perform?
olopan(m): 12:34pm On Apr 22
Hello!

You will need a 5kVA/6kVA inverter hybrid (Deye, Growatt, Tbb) or conventional type (victron, Tbb, felicity) if you need to run both the AC and pump simultaneously

But if you plan to be self-conscious and know you won't run both together, then going for 3.5 kVA is a better choice.

For the ideal solar power, you will need around 6,500 Wp of solar s (Jinko, JA, Longi, Canadian) and a 120A solar charge controller.

Battery choice (Vestwoods, Deriy, Pylonytech, Growatt)

Lastly, with your budget i see things coming together in a 3.5 kVA range, especially when inverter, solar s and BOS are all factored in.

quote author=Ahyjo post=135077118]Hello experts in the house. I’ve been following all the discussions diligently especially the recent ones with regard to the lithium batteries. I am about to upgrade my system to be able to take a 1.5HP AC and also my 1HP submersible pump. Please I need your advice on the appropriate inverter to get ( both KVA (minimum required) and brand ) , the best lithium battery (14-15kwh) and CC (if the suggested inverter is not hybrid), and lastly the appropriate PV array. Thank you. As we all know these things don’t come cheap, so it’s better for one to do due diligence before investing in them, and there’s no better place to get appropriate information like here. Please advise me based on experience and not brand specifications.

My working budget is 3M - 3.5M

Please I am not a technical person. I just need advice. Last month a Yohako 2.5kva 24volt non hybrid inverter,, with 4 units of 350 watts Canadian solar was installed for me. This was my first time and I knew nothing about it. I observed that using grid power alone on the inverter works fine but when there is sun, and there is no load on the inverter, it start blinking fault light and sound and this happens when the charge controller shows 31+. The moment I switch on electeical devices, the fault disappears after sometime and the charge controller number goes down too. If you don't keep the inverter loaded, it will start blinking fault light again. But if it's just grid light without sun, it works perfectly fine. I hardly use grid light because of prepaid meter except when there is no sun and the battery is low. The installer would only ask me to put off the inverter and on again without any explanation or solution.

Within one month, the battery water reduced drastically and we had to refill. I was told that's too early.

Kindly advise me please.

Attached is the pic of the UI of the inverter

Is the Jinko pv1 as seen in the image ?
Is there any reason you decided to go for diffrent s, giving that pv1 seems to be more efficient than pv2?
Do you know if this particular deye model has a "no batt" mode ?
Whats the maximum total power you pv1 giving ?
What technology does the jinko use, If possible can you please share the model ?

how many %dod will 48v translate to on lifepo4 ..??
olopan(m): 3:42pm On Apr 22
that will be like 8-5% DoD or SoC

So, too low to continue, else you may have to start looking for ways to wake the battery up

From the image you attached, I see it is a hybrid inverter you use.

There is a need to reduce the charging voltage to 28.8V as opposed to the 31V you currently do have and float voltage to 27V.
What is happening now is that your battery is undergoing an unprepared equalisation charging state, which should only be once a month.

You will need to consult our manual to understand what i have written above.

Maybe because the is either fake/used and rebranded or it’s from an unserious company making such an unreasonable mistake.

A s Voc is always greater than Vmp because when a is not under load it can hold a higher voltage.

Your installer did a poor job and set the wrong voltage on the inverter/charge controller...for flooded batts you shud set it no more than 29.4v for bulk and 27.4v float.
I doubt your installer understands all this, so best u take ur destiny into ur hands and change rhe settings...or find someone technical who can help u

Higher current means higher cable costs and higher losses.

There's a reason why electricity is transmitted at high voltage, not high current.

By connecting more s in series what do you think I'd get? More current? Please do help answer me.

Lemme be clear I prefer to run as much s in series as I can so I'd use lower gauge wire without issues related to the crazy current people get by running many parallels.

Both of you are saying the same thing in different ways sha. Both of you don’t like the crazy high currents due to their issues (hotness, losses etc), and so both of you advise that voltage should be the high parameter (series connection) and not current (parallel connection).

I use same 10.2kw sms inverter, but max capacity based on my testing is 8.2kw. It's capacity is overated. Solar generation too is overated, about 300-400w always dey miss when charging my battery. PV generation is showing 2800w but only 2400w dey enter battery with no load , where the 400w Waka go now. One thing going for it is the inverting efficiency. Compared to my previous inverters, the DC(battery power) to AC output is quite good. I didn't expect a 10kva inverter to be that efficient, it's not a power consuming hog. Even the standby consumption(for me DC conversion efficiency is more important than this as most times our inverters are never idle) isnt that bad, roughly 70w

Some of you don't ven know how mppt works

First image at just 8:30am cc is getting 55.6V from the s and delivering 164w of power.

Second image , the cc is actually charging the battery at 13.3v and 13.1amps.


So you can see the high pvc voltage doesn't matter so long you stay within the parameters of the cc
You both saying the same thing. There is a reason the manufacturer put VOC limit to each battery voltage ie 12/24/48v as its based on their research

Gradually we are marketing products we don't produce. Giving free adverts to companies that don't even know us personally.

They are like football club fans that know all about players lives but refused to be known. Real fans are at the stadium watching life matches.

No carry people product for head like gala. There are several products working better than popular ones.

Please what is your total battery capacity?
Hi,

For s:

Jinko 440w x 12 = 5,280w
Cworth 500w x 10 = 5,000w

Total 10,280w

Average sustained production per hour when skies are almost clear of clouds is 8,150wh

For batteries:

51.2v x 486ah (the max I am willing to discharge) = 24.8kwh

Bms is Jk with communication board and 2Amp active balancer

Full charge 55v, float at 54.9v

For inverter:

6kw Deye SUN-6K-OG01LP1-EU-AM2.

It use to be a 10.2kw sms, but i have documented my dissatisfaction with it, so I got the Deye instead. Besides, I realised I dont use more than 4kw at a time, and if eventually I will need more than 6kw at a time, I can always parallel the deye with another deye 6kw inverter to get 12kw.


For monitoring:

1. Inbuilt deye wifi for Deye cloud
2. Solarman
3. Solar Assistant Raspberry Pi 5

Current Load (they are not all turned on at the same time):

Average total daily load is 25kw - 30kw (24hrs)

13kw - 15kw is average night time load (7pm - 7am)

On average I have 50 percent battery left in the morning, except for multiple rainy days.

1xLg 1hp inverter ac (average 9hrs daily)
1xLg 1.5hp inverter ac (currently faulty, usually 3hrs daily)
1xNexus 1hp inverter ac (average 11hrs daily)
1xMicrowave (20mins daily)

Hello!

You will need a 5kVA/6kVA inverter hybrid (Deye, Growatt, Tbb) or conventional type (victron, Tbb, felicity) if you need to run both the AC and pump simultaneously

But if you plan to be self-conscious and know you won't run both together, then going for 3.5 kVA is a better choice.

For the ideal solar power, you will need around 6,500 Wp of solar s (Jinko, JA, Longi, Canadian) and a 120A solar charge controller.

Battery choice (Vestwoods, Deriy, Pylonytech, Growatt)

Lastly, with your budget i see things coming together in a 3.5 kVA range, especially when inverter, solar s and BOS are all factored in.

quote author=Ahyjo post=135077118]Hello experts in the house. I’ve been following all the discussions diligently especially the recent ones with regard to the lithium batteries. I am about to upgrade my system to be able to take a 1.5HP AC and also my 1HP submersible pump. Please I need your advice on the appropriate inverter to get ( both KVA (minimum required) and brand ) , the best lithium battery (14-15kwh) and CC (if the suggested inverter is not hybrid), and lastly the appropriate PV array. Thank you. As we all know these things don’t come cheap, so it’s better for one to do due diligence before investing in them, and there’s no better place to get appropriate information like here. Please advise me based on experience and not brand specifications.

My working budget is 3M - 3.5M
Kindly advice please.

Thank you.

Is this solar compatible for a 48v inverter?

Chineke nna, how is Voc lesser than Vmp? 👀
