12SPECIAL FEATURESDigital Energy DisplayNight Time DisconnectParallel OperationNote:Maximum Power Point TrackingProtectionMaintenance CycleThe backlit energy display shows instantaneous power, accumulative power,AC voltage, AC current, AC power factor and AC frequency. See page 14 formore details.After dark when the solar input is no longer available the Inverter willautomatically disconnect from the AC grid. This feature ensures that duringthe night, the Inverter cannot consume any power whatsoever whileremaining idle. Upon sunrise the next morning when solar input becomesavailable again, the PV edge will automatically reconnect to the AC grid andbegin generating power.The PV edge automatically synchronizes to the AC grid, therefore the outputof multiple units can all be connected together, and they will all besynchronized by the AC grid.The optimum power level from the solar input depends on the available solarmodules. Even in cloudy weather with fluctuations in the solar radiationlevel, the PV Edge constantly monitors and tracks the optimum operatingpoint to ensure maximum power from the solar modules is achieved.The AC grid voltage and frequency is closely monitored by the PVEdgealong with anti islanding checks via active phase shifts. Isolation betweenthe DC input and AC output is achieved via the Toroidal Transformer. TheInverter is fitted with a cooling fan, which is temperature controlled and onlyoperates when required.When in Battery mode (MPPT disabled) a maintenance cycle is performedevery 30 days. This is a short boost cycle for sealed batteries or an equalizecharge for flooded cells. In this mode the bottom LED will flash slowly untilthe cycle is completed.The Solar inputs of multiple unit Inverters are not to be parallelledunless used with a battery. Please contact Latronics for more details.9The Latronics Turbine Controller utilizes the latest in micro-controller design to deliver astable and safe supply of power to the grid connect inverter. Designed specifically tointegrate with the PV Edge line of Latronics inverters, it allows battery-less gridconnection of wind and water turbines.NOTE: PV Edge must be in Battery Mode.Turbine controller may require a dump load.(See pg 13)(see Turbine Controller manual)TurbineControllerGrid MainsTurbine3 Phase or DC VoltagePV Edge
