Thanks Coulomb. My client is not at the site-he will be back on Monday. So i don"t know the firmware version. Another two strange thinks: -Before using dry contact, the inverter start charging from gen without any problem.Now, when the generator starts and by-pass is on, there is some relay(s) click...

[ Moderator note: moved from the general 5048MS topic to this one. ] Hello everyone! I have a problem with a PIP 5048GK which is working with a diesel generator with ATS and automatic start. I used the dry contact in order to start and to stop the generator. It works OK, but after the first cycle ru...

Hello everybody. I have a question:Why a 30 mA RCCBO connected at the AC output of Effekta is not working in battery mode, as a residual current protection? The grounding (PE) oh the site is properly done. Either if I connect with a wire the L or N inverter output to the grounding, the RCCBO does no...

The 100th inverter installed.


Thanks to your help I could manage some problems occurred.(Error 90, fan problems, firmware compatibility, etc, etc.)
You can see my works here:

@coulomb , thank you for your links in order to upgrade the 73.00 to 73.00c version.
I had a stupid Error 90 at three inverters, and I solved the problem.

Yes, I supposed is reactive power and I know that 300W transformed in heat inside inverter's volume should give a high temperature. The problem is that a lot of electronic power meters installed in Romania are measuring a part of reactive power, even in single-phase grid connection. You confirmed my...

I have discovered a strange think at Effekta AXM 4048:When the inverter is working in by-pass mode, with the AC OUT fuse disconnected(so is no output consumption) the inverter takes 1.2-1.5 Amps from the grid. I checked with different measuring instruments (AC clapmeter, Am meter in series with live...

The firmware is 72.60.
Yes, the LEDs has the same behavior like at startup.
This happens not for one, but for two inverters-one is MPP Solar, the second one is Effekta(Voltronic branded for Germany)

Hello again. I have a strange situation with a PIP-4048.In the meniu 16 I set OSO(only solar charging)option.If I shut down the inverter from On-Off button and the AC grid is connected, after about 30 seconds the inverter try to start for few seconds: the LEDs and the display are lighting and after ...

Have you got 72.70 firmware to upgrade?

Not yet, I'll send a mail to MPP Solar

[ Edited Coulomb: repaired formatting ]

New firmware 72.70 has 2 extra programs. 32 and 38. Anyone know what they do 32 param is bulk charging time. Options: Automatic (default) or time (5-900 minutes) That is a good information.It seems that we had a good feed-back to our emails sent to MPP Solar.We asked them to include that parameter....

Ok. Another problem with this firmware 72.60A lead-acid version: If I setup: Param 1: sbu Param 5: use Param 12: 47 Param 26: 57 Param 27: 54 Param 29: 46 Inverter is shutdown with 49V in batt.   Why?? Because of param 29 (low voltage cut off) set to 46 V, the inverter shut off when the battery wen...

Joaquin did you think how to balance the elements?

I have a question regarding MS4048 in parallel. In the Instruction Guide is like that: AC output mode *This setting is only available when the inverter is in standby mode (Switch off). But, on the other hand the say Step 2: Turn on each unit and set “PAL” in LCD setting program 28 of each unit. And ...

If the relay is clicking once, is a normal behavior due to the MPPT algorithm initializing.In my opinion is better to open the inverter case and check the 3300uF caps if they are swollen.Because if they will explode, will damage all the electronics around.I know how is it http://forums.aeva.asn.au/s...

Did you notice any leakeage below the inverter?
Do you see the PV icon on the display?

The cost of 70USD was for shipping.They send me the boards under guarantee terms.The real value is bigger, for sure. http://forums.aeva.asn.au/uploads/4111/20151214_162635_-_Copy.jpg I had also the same problems with the generator connected to AC in. I use the method to start the generator with a sm...

Hello everyone. It seems that the new type of 4048MS(which is build in a new case, without the black heatsink at the upper side)has problems with the 3300uF capacitors. I had problems with my inverter, a friend of mine has the same fault: with only 500W load the inverter collapsed after 5min.The ca...

The battery are lead acid Banner Energy-Made in Austria-8 pcs 12V 230Ah. I set the absorbtion voltage at 57V.The first inverter failed after 10 days of use, without any high loads-maximum 3000W. The second one is connected with Sunlight gel batteries, 16 pcs 12V 100Ah and failed after 5min http://fo...

Here are the pictures

The unit is MPPT.When I opened the box i thought that is a wrong delivery, but the label is MS 4048.MPP solar confirmed that they changed the case after July 2015.
The problem is the MPPT board, the compacted construction and the capacitors very close to the heatsink.

Yes, is the only one.
