1.0 Introduction
Dear customer, thank you for choosing this quality Phocos product. The Any-Grid™ p ure sine wave hybrid inverter /
charger series has numerous outstanding features and use-cases such as:
• Function as purely Off-Grid inverter for applications with no AC power source
• Function as solar enabled (optional) uninterruptible power supply (UPS) functionality for intermittentor
unstable AC sources
• Function as grid-conne cted or AC-generator-connectedinverter to reduce energy demand from the AC
source by prioritizing solar and/or battery power, thus saving energy costs
• Grid injection of excess energy possible where it is legal, with or without a connectedbattery. Accidental
injection is prevented by requirement of a PIN code for activation
• Bot h neutral (N) and live (L) wires of the AC input are automatically disconnected (break-before-make relays)
from the AC output when the Any-Grid operatesinOff-Grid mode
• Hig h-voltage MPPT solar charge controller allows the connection of more solar panels in series (compared to
other Off-Grid solar charge controllers), typically eliminating t he need for expensive combiner boxes
• Battery charging from an AC source such as the public power grid or a genset
• Compatib ility with multiple battery types including lead-acid (gel, AGM and liq uid e lectrolyte) and Lithium-
based batteriessuch as LiFePO4
• Battery-free mode: if an AC source is available, photovoltaic(PV / solar) power can be used as first priority,
even wit h no battery attached
• Removable wired display unit c an be installed in a different room (up to 20 m / 66 ft cable can be used)
• All-in-one hybrid unit allows simple and fast installation, and easy configuration
• Monitor the unit in real-time with the PhocosLink Mobile BLE smartphone App
• Optional accessor y: Phocos Any-Bridge™ AB-PLC Monitoring & Control Gateway (s old separately) to conne ct
to the PhocosLink Cloud from anywhere with any internet-capable device via its web b rowser
This manual describes the assembly, installation, operation and troubleshooting of this unit.
2.0 Important Safety Information
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains important instructions for models PSW-H-5kW-230/48V,
PSW-H-8kW-230/48V, PSW-H-6.5kW-120/48V and PSW-H-5kW-120/48V (referred to as 48 Vdc models), as well
as the PSW-H-3KW-230/24V and PSW-H-3kW-120/24V (referred to as 24 Vdc models) that shall be followed
during installation and maintenance of the hybrid inverter/charger. The PSW-H-8kW-230/48V, PSW-H-5kW-
230/48V and PSW-H-3KW-230/24V are also referred to as 230 Vac models, the PSW-H-6.5kW-120/48V, PSW-H-
5kW-120/48V and PSW-H-3KW-120/24V as 120 Vac models. Read and save this manual for future reference.
WARNING: The installation of this unit may only be undertaken by qualified personnel with appropriate
training. High voltages in and around the unit can cause serious injury or death. This unit must be installed in
accordance with rules and regulations at the site of installation.
CAUTION: A battery can present a risk of electrical shock, burn from high short-circuit current, fire or
explosion from vented gasses. Observe proper precautions.
WARNING: This unit must be connected to a permanent grounded wiring system. Be sure to comply with local
requirements and regulations when installing this unit.
BATTERY TYPE: Suitable for use with lead-acid(gel, AGMand liquid electrolyte) and Lithium-based batteries such as
LiFePO4.
OVERCURRENTPROTECTION FOR BATTERY: Install an overcurrent protection device with a minimum of 1000 A
interrupt rating as close as possible to the battery terminal. Select a device rated for 1.25 times the nominal current
rating of t he inverter/charger . An overcurrentprotection device must be purchased separately.
1. Before using the unit, read all inst ructions and cautionary markings on this unit, the batteries, the solar modules,
any connected loads.
