2. Please do not disassemble or attempt to repair Phocos products. This unit does not contain user serviceable parts.
Damage to the warranty seal will lead to a loss of warranty of the product and can lead to injury.
3. To reduce risk of electric shock, disconnect all wirings before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Switching
off the unit is not sufficient, turn off and / or d isconnect all conne ctions to the unit.
4. For s afe operation of this unit, please adhere to appropriate cable size requirementsin this manual.
5. Be very cautious when working with uninsulated metal tools on or around batteries. They can short-circuit
batteries or ot he r electrical parts and could cause an explosion and / or injury.
6. Strictly follow the installation procedure when connecting or disconnecting AC or DC terminals. Please refer to
the “Installation” section of this manual for details.
7. Appropriate fuses or breakers are required near the battery supply and AC input and AC output of this unit.
8. WARNING: It is highly recommended and legally required in many countries to install aType B residual c urrent
device (RCD) between the AC outputof the unit(s) and the AC loads to protect humans from hazardous electric
shock due to faulty AC wiring, faulty loads or a potential inverter fault.
Only in Off-Grid mode, the neutral (N) and ground (PE) of the AC output are automatically bridgedinside the Any-
Grid to ensure the RCD’s functioning if the AC installationis wired correctly as aTN-S or TN-C-S earthing system. In
a TN-C-S inst allation the bridge bet ween neutral (N) and ground (PE) must be between the publicgrid and AC
input of the Any-Grid to ensure that there is never more than one bridge between N and PE.
9. Never allow any AC or DC connections to be short-c ircuited. Do not connect to the mains when the battery input
is short-circuited.
10. Only qualified service persons may servicethis device.If errors persist after following the “Troubleshooting”
section in this manual, please send this unit back to a local Phocos dealeror service center for maintenance.
11. WARNING: Because this inverter (AC output) is not isolated from the PV input, only solar panels are acceptable for
use which do not require positive or negative grounding as grounding the positive or negative PV cables is not
allowed. To avoid any malfunction, do not connect any PV modules with possible current leakage to the inverter.
For example, positive- or negative-grounded PV modules will cause current leakage to the inverter. Grounding of
the PV module frame is permitted and freque ntly required by local law.
The battery is galvanically isolated from the inverter and PV input, therefore the battery positive or negative
terminal may be grounded if required.
12. CAUTION:When using more than one Any-Grid, ensure that each Any-Grid is connected only to its own PV array.
There may be no electrical contact between units’PV arrays, or the Any-Grids will be damaged.
13. CAUTION: It is highly recommended to use a surge arrester, also named surge protective device (SPD) near the PV
input t erminals of this unit. This is to prevent damage to the unit from lightning, thund erstorms, or ot he r voltage
surges on the PV cables. The max. DC operating voltage of the SPD must be between 450 and 480 Vdc for 230Vac
models ( 500 to 550Vdc for PSW-H-8KW-230/48V). For example, the
Citel DS240-350DC
or
Phoenix Contact VAL-
SEC-T2-2+0-38 0DC-FM
is suitable (
Citel DDC50-21Y-500
for PSW-H-8 KW-230/48V). For120 Vac models themax.
DC operating voltage must be betwe en 250 to 280 Vdc, so for examp le the
Citel DS240-220DC
or
Phoenix Contact
VAL-SEC-T2-2+0 -220DC-FM
is suitable.
14. CAUTION: It is highly recommended to use a surg e arrester, also named surge protective device (SPD) near the AC
input t erminals of this unit, if the AC input is used. This is to prevent damage to the unit from lightning,
thunderstorms or other voltage surgeson the AC input conductors (for example coming from the public grid).
The max. AC operating voltage of the SPD must be between 275 and 300 Vac for 230 Vac models. For example, the
Citel DS41S-230
or
Phoenix ContactVAL-MS 230
(for most public grids or generators, higher protection) or
Citel
DS41S-320
(for public grids with large voltage swings, lower protection) are suitable.
For 120Vac models the SPD must have a max. AC operatingvoltage between 140 and 150 Vac. For example, the
Citel DS41S-120
or
Phoenix ContactVAL-SEC-T2-1S-175-FM
is suitable.
