Powervortex 5200TL hybrid inverter
2. Description
2.1 General System Description
GMDE Powervortex 4600/ 5200TL hybrid inverter is designed for new PV storage system
installation. The Solar battery hybrid system with Powervortex 4600/ 5200TL is consisted of 3
modules: Powervortex 4600/ 5200TL storage inverter, battery packs and meter.
Powervortex 4600/ 5200TL storage inverter
The storage inverter converts the DC power generated by PV modules into AC power. The
generated electricity from PV is used by the household loads, being charged into the battery
packs or being fed into the grid.
48V Lithium/Lead battery packs
Battery packs stores the energy generated from solar energy and increases self-use up to 70%.
Energy meter
Adopt the 1-phase bi-directional energy meter for communication, and hybrid inverter controls
when to charge/discharge according to the data from the meter.
Solution: Integrated Energy Management Solution
Through RS485 communication cable, the hybrid inverter communicates with the power meter
installed between the AC grid and load. With the power-related information sent from the
power meter, the hybrid inverter can automatically decide when to charge or discharge the
battery packs.
Note that:
With lithium batteries, an independent BMS is compulsory to maintain battery’s lifetime. Make
sure the Powervortex 4600/ 5200TL has integrated the BMS communication protocol.
The power meter used in this application must be recommended or confirmed by GMDE since
the integration of communication protocol between power meter and GMDE hybrid inverter is
required.
