Does anyone know what would happen if I connect more panels power than nominated... example... I connect 4.500W of solar panels to 4000W nominated device That level of "overclocking" is safe and is commonly used. The solar charge controller just stops "trying harder" when it reaches its power limit...

Hi guys, Does anyone know what would happend if I connect more panels power than nominated... example... I connect 4.500W of solar panels to 4000W nominated device, each of course (3 devices connected together)? What will happend if PV input is greater than nominated device input power? Will it burn...

Thank You for explanation, but is there any way to fix this? I already told you how to fix it, if it is due to a difference in battery voltage calibration. Follow the link in my previous post. If you get all three inverters reading the same battery voltage within ±0.1 V and the problem still occurs...

Thank You for explanation, but is there any way to fix this? I can make video so that you can see what is happening during charging when batteries are almost full or full. On older FW battery icon was working fine, not always perfect but icon was not showing charging from 0 bars when batteries was f...

Hi again ;) Is there any way to "calibrate" battery charging icon on display...? Even when my batteries are full, icon still show that it is charging empty battery (icon is with no bars, then one, than two,...and so on) It is different battery status on each inverter (total 3) :shock: Thank You.

So my observation is that temperature is not displayed properly (max temperature on inverter). I assume that this is happening during the day while the Solar Charge Controller is running. It could be that the SCC sensor is on the MOSFET heatsink, and not on the heatsink on top, which I believe is f...

What temperature is measured and than displayed on my Pips 4048MS with your latest "e" FW? It's the highest of 3 or 4 temperatures: The battery-side MOSFET heatsink The inverter proper (IGBT) heatsink The transformer temperature (there is a bead sensor near the transformer) The SCC heatsink tempera...

Hi guys, What temperature is measured and than displayed on my Pips 4048MS with your latest "e" FW? It shows about 31 and upper heatsink is for sure about 50 degrees Celsius. Other question is: Is it possible to get all display menu items on both left and right side od display? That would be most us...

Ebay seller said that V2 model is EOL and new model is: https://www.ebay.com/itm/163192198388 ? But the one shown in the Ebay advertisement is a V2. Perhaps he/you meant that the V are now at end-of-life, and the V2 are replacing them. But the V2 are 450 V max MPPT models, so you'd need to add insu...

I did not find 4048V model on ebay? Do you have some link to it?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/163192198388

Could it be connected in parallel with my 3 existing 4048MS? No. I did not find 4048V model on ebay? Do you have some link to it? https://www.mppsolar.com/v3/hybrid-v-series/ The V series are hybrids, not off-grid models... Thank You... things are now much more clearer. :) [ Edited Coulomb: trimmed...

4048V can export to grid

Hi,

Could it be connected in parallel with my 3 existing 4048MS?

I did not find 4048V model on ebay? Do you have some link to it?

Could You please give some more info?

Do you know if 5048MK can export to grid?

Thank You and best regards

Does anyone know is it possible to "return" excess power, when batteries are full, to grid (power company) with PIPs or I have to buy new 10kW grid inverter to do that? My understanding is that the models that can operate without a battery (so that excludes yours) can in some modes push power from ...

Hi,

I have 3xPIP-4048MS with 5400W PV and I am adding 5500W more...

New type scc pcb USD59

From where do you get spare parts?

Thank You.

What is the difference between old and new ssc board? Basically, the new board is much longer, the new SCC heatsink is better positioned in front of the fans, and the PV terminal block connects to the SCC PCB via a pair of metal bars attached to the PCB. Old board (sorry for the poor photo, all I c...

New type scc boards can be fitted to old type 4048ms with the big black heatsink. Leave the heatsink but remove the old scc pcb. Mount the new type scc pcb between the 2 main board heatsinks sand connect to the 2 inductors which remain on the big black heatsink Hi, What is the difference between ol...

Does anyone knows how to resolder original fan connector to Arctic fan? This post may be helpful. Available from the index. Edit: but take note of this post , where Weber put back the original fans due to intermittent fan locked warnings. Also available from the index in the first post of this topi...

Hi,

Today have finally made some time to update my PIP firmware from 52.30 to 73.00e on my 3 inverters.

Everything works excellent for now.

Thank you guys.

Best regards

Its shown in video, arctic f8 pwm, this are very quiet. Until now has only two times occurred the fan lock error. And thats long time ago. If you can live with that is fine, you have been warned. Don't forget to reorient the fan to blow upwards, the inverter is much cooler. Hi again, :D Does anyone...

A story about fans> I have changed all mine so they push air up I have also added two more 120mm fans to the top vents on the inverter drawing air out. I have used a 12v version of this temperature controller to operate them you could use a 240v version and my friend has aswell https://www.ebay.com...

@daimyo can you look on Youtube for that, I have posted a video. Is very easy with the right tool and skills (I'm an obstetrician)....... No I'm not, is a joke. But you get the idea?

Forget to ask... what fan did you use as replacement?

Thank You very much and best regards

Thank You guys so much for answers!

Will try to figure something out.

Is there any web place from where to buy original fans? Ebay or...?

Thank you and best regards

Hi guys.

Oldest of 3 inverters has error 01... fan not working.

What is the simpliest way to replace defective fan?

What fan do i need, what connector on fan?

Do I need to unmount inverter from the wall to replace it?

Thank you and best regards
