Re: Solis inverter alarm

Thanks guys.
I've got the installers coming back next week, in the meantime I've switched off charging from the grid to prevent it alarming at night, and wonder if I should limit charging the batteries during the day as we are generating a lot from the panels at the moment.

Re: Solis inverter alarm

The panel BMS info attached shows SOH 97%. Is that bad? You have previously mentioned that your first battery was installed at the end of Jan 2023 . . . ( ? Are there any more now ? ) SOH 97 % - suggests to me that the battery(s) need some proper diagnosis / fixing of the ongoing alarms. My primary...

Re: Solis inverter alarm

Hi Moxi Ah, problem is I don't have the app. The dongle needed for the app is an optional extra I'd get as there's s so much info on the panel I didn't think I'd need it. I will invest in one as it may be useful in the future. The panel BMS info attached shows SOH 97%. Is that bad? https://i.postimg...

Re: Solis inverter alarm

Thank you guys I have done as you suggest. I'll let you know if it solves the problem. If it doesn't, I'll call the guy that commissioned the system. Thanks again Hi Chaps I adjusted the floating charge to 52.5 and the battery overcharge to 54.5, the equalising charge can't be reset. Unfortunately,...

Re: Solis inverter alarm

I have the same set up, Solis with a bunch of Pylon-techs, and get the same warning codes when fully charged . Also a couple of days ago we had an alarm on the master battery itself when the SOC was at 18%, after sun-up and a bit of charge the red Led went out and hasn't come back since. Is this el...

Re: Solis inverter alarm

Had a look at the settings this morning. The Pylontech manual says the charging voltage is between 52.5 ~ 53.5 (Vdc) In the Control Parameter screen: Floating Charge was already on 053.5V Equalising Charge was above the 053.5 so reduced to 053.2V Battery Overvoltage was set to 060V so reduced to 053...
