MAX inverter's working principle is like following:
1>The PV panels gather solar to generate DC power to inverter. 230V 230V

2>With input current detection circuit, it can monitor all the PV panels' working status 480V

and use MPPT to track the maximum power point.

3>With inverter circuit change DC power to AC power, and feed power back to grid per

6.1 Connection on AC side
• Before electrical connection, please ensure the inverter DC switch is at ”
OFF” also disconnect AC switch, otherwise the high voltage from inverter
may cause life risk.
DANGER •Only trained authorized electrical technician can do the electric
connection also please follow the connection procedures in this manual
along with local country's regulations.
•High voltage may cause electric shocks and serious injury please do not
touch the inverter.
•Please do not store inverter in area with flammable and explosive material.

• Each inverter must install one AC breaker, AC breaker is forbidden to share

with other inverters.

WARNING •If the cable is thick, after tightening the cable do not shake it and ensure
the cable is well-connected and then start the inverter. Loose connection
may cause overheat.

Preparation before connection:

1>Disconnect inverter DC switch and AC breaker or switch
2>When you lock the AC cable's screw the torque force should be 9N•m.

9.1 Routine Maintenance
9.1.1 Cleaning Inverter

•Before any operation, please disconnect the DC switch and AC switch, and
wait for at least 5 minutes until internal capacitance discharge completely.
DANGER
Fig 9.1 External fan view
1>Check the ambient temperature and dust of the inverter, clean the inverter when
necessary.
2>Observe whether the air outlets is normal, when necessary, clean the air outlets or
clean the fan step by step, steps refer to 9.1.2.

9.1.2 Fan Maintenance

• It must be carried out by qualified, trained personnel and comply with all
prevailing local code and regulations.
•Please disconnect the DC switch and AC switch before any operation, and
DANGER wait for at least 5 minutes until the internal bus capacitance discharge
completely.
Fig 9.2 Internal fan view

•Do not use the air pump cleaning fan, which may cause fan damage.
WARNING 3>Disconnect the wire connector of the fans with a flat head screw driver and remove
the fans from the fan guards, it is shown as below.

When the Growatt MAX series inverter work in high temperature environment, good venti-
lation and heat dissipation can effectively reduce the chance of load derating . Inverter
equipped with internal cooling fans, when the internal temperature is too high, the fans
work in to reduce the internal temperature. When the inverter is derating because of the
internal temperature is too high, the following are the possible reasons or solutions;
1)Fan is blocked or the heat sink gathers too much dust, it needs to clean the fan, fan cover
or heat sink.
2)Fan is damaged, it need to replace the fan. Fig 9.3
3)Poor ventilation of the installation location, it needs to select the appropriate installation
location according to the basic installation requirements.
Fan cleaning and replacement procedure;
1>Please ensure that the DC side and AC side of the inverter have been disconnected
before cleaning or replacement of the fan.
1) Turn off DC switch.
2)Disconnect DC terminals from inverter(Users need tools to disconnect the DC connection
terminals).
3)Turn off AC switch；

2>Remove the screws on the fan guards with a cross screwdriver. it is shown as below:
