1. Inleiding
This manual provides essential information for the safe and efficient operation of your Green Cell Off Grid Inverter with MPPT Solar Charger, model INVSOL03. This device integrates an inverter, MPPT solar charger, and battery charger functions to offer an uninterruptible power supply solution. Please read this manual thoroughly before installation and use, and retain it for future reference.
2. Veiligheidsinstruksies
Always observe the following safety precautions to prevent injury and damage to the inverter or connected equipment:
- Installasie moet deur gekwalifiseerde personeel uitgevoer word.
- Maak seker dat alle bedrading korrek gedimensioneer en behoorlik geïsoleer is.
- Moenie die omsetter aan reën, sneeu, spuitwater of enige vloeistowwe blootstel nie.
- Moenie die omsetter uitmekaar haal nie. Daar is geen onderdele binne wat deur die gebruiker onderhou kan word nie.
- Verseker voldoende ventilasie rondom die omsetter om oorverhitting te voorkom.
- Connect the inverter to a properly grounded electrical system.
- Before any maintenance or cleaning, disconnect all power sources (AC, DC, and PV).
3. Produk verbyview
The Green Cell INVSOL03 is a multi-functional inverter designed for off-grid applications, combining the capabilities of a solar charger, battery charger, and inverter into one unit. It provides a pure sine wave output, suitable for sensitive electronics.

This diagram illustrates a typical setup where solar panels charge the battery via the inverter's MPPT controller, and the inverter supplies AC power to household appliances from the battery or directly from solar.
4. Opstelling
Follow these steps for proper installation of your Green Cell Off Grid Inverter:
- Montering: Choose a suitable location indoors, away from direct sunlight, moisture, and flammable materials. Ensure sufficient clearance for ventilation. Mount the inverter vertically on a solid surface.
- Batteryverbinding: Connect the battery bank to the DC input terminals. Ensure correct polarity (+ to + and - to -). Use appropriate cable gauges and fuses. The inverter is designed for a 24VDC battery system.
- Sonpaneelverbinding: Connect the solar panel array to the PV input terminals. Observe correct polarity and ensure the open-circuit voltage (Voc) and short-circuit current (Isc) of your solar array are within the inverter's specifications.
- WS-invoerverbinding (opsioneel): If using a grid or generator as a backup, connect the AC input to the designated terminals. Ensure proper grounding.
- WS-uitvoerverbinding: Connect your AC loads (appliances) to the AC output terminals. Ensure the total load does not exceed the inverter's rated output power.
- Kommunikasieverbindings: For monitoring and advanced settings, connect a USB cable to a computer or use the COM port for other communication devices.
After all connections are secure, you can proceed to power on the system.

5. Bedryfsinstruksies
Once installed, the inverter operates largely automatically. Here are key operational aspects:
5.1 Aan-/afskakel
- Om aan te skakel: Ensure all connections are correct. Turn on the battery breaker first, then the PV breaker (if applicable), and finally the AC input breaker (if applicable). Press and hold the power button on the inverter until the display illuminates.
- Om af te skakel: Disconnect AC loads. Turn off the AC input breaker, then the PV breaker, and finally the battery breaker. Press and hold the power button until the display turns off.
5.2 LCD-skerm en instellings
Use the MENU, UP, DOWN, and ENTER buttons to navigate through the display screens and adjust settings. The display shows:
- Invoer voltage (PV en WS)
- Battery voltage and charge status
- Uitset voltage en vrag persentasietage
- Operating mode (e.g., Line Mode, Battery Mode, Fault)
Refer to the detailed settings section in the full product manual for advanced configuration options such as battery type, charging current, and output voltage reeks.
5.3 Moniteringsagteware

6. Onderhoud
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your inverter:
- Skoonmaak: Periodically clean the exterior of the inverter with a dry cloth. Ensure ventilation openings are free from dust and debris. Do not use liquid cleaners.
- Verbindings: Annually check all electrical connections for tightness and corrosion. Loose connections can cause overheating and poor performance.
- Battery inspeksie: Regularly inspect your battery bank for signs of damage, corrosion, or swelling. Ensure battery terminals are clean and tight.
- Omgewing: Verseker dat die bedryfsomgewing binne die gespesifiseerde temperatuur- en humiditeitsreekse bly.
7. Probleemoplossing
Indien u probleme ondervind, verwys na die volgende algemene probleme en oplossings:
| Probleem | Moontlike oorsaak | Oplossing |
|---|---|---|
| Geen uitsetkrag nie | Battery low; Inverter off; Overload; Fault condition | Gaan battery voltage; Turn on inverter; Reduce load; Check fault codes on display. |
