[RE-wrenches] AC Coupling Situation

2013-03-18 Thread Jeremy Rodriguez- All Solar Inc.
Wrenches,
Here is my situation:  GT string inverter - 3 strings of mods, 10KW DC. We need 
to reduce the PV when the grid is down as to not overload the AC coupled 
inverters.  
Is there a good way to limit PV input like shunt off some power or short part 
of the array? (part)
I was first thinking of dropping off 2 of the three strings, but that would not 
leave enough input for the critical loads. 
Has anyone done such a thing?

[RE-wrenches] Battery Trays and the NEC

2013-01-12 Thread Jeremy Rodriguez- All Solar Inc.
Hi
I have an inspector requesting info on Surrette 5000 series batteries. I have 
told him they are dual container and that there is not a listed enclosure for 
them. In fact I see no mention in the code book about requirement for a listed 
enclosure, only that the tray must be able to resist acid. 
Since they are dual container, will there ever be a chance of leakage?
Maybe someone has some documentation on this. Surrette Rep?

[RE-wrenches] Trace Parts - colorado

2013-01-09 Thread Jeremy Rodriguez- All Solar Inc.
Hello
Does anyone know if the One Stop Cop shop in Colorado Springs still repairs 
inverters?  I just spoke with a client who may need an AC board for an SW. 
Maybe best to just upgrade him to an OB!  The SW will start the genny 
automatically, but he must stop it manually.  (AC board has the relays 
correct?). He has an Onan genset, which sounds like it may be 3 Or 4 wire 
start. Also thought of maybe a Solar Converters auto gen start module or 
equivelant so he could still use the inverter, as is. Any recommendations would 
be helpful.

Jeremy:

31.25 is the minimum allowable Ampacity (25 Amps continuous) so a 35 Amp 
breaker would be the minimum size per Code.
The inverter may have a higher pass through rating to support the loads and 
so is likely the reason a 60 Amp breaker is specified.
The pass through rating is typically based on the size of the isolation relay 
and is usually higher than the inverter's continuous power rating.

Re: [RE-wrenches] Magnum MS 4448 AE issues

2012-12-23 Thread Jeremy Rodriguez- All Solar Inc.
We have installed 3 Systreams in off grid settings with the Whisper 500 DC dump 
load (from SWWP) with good results. Used 2 Morningstar TS 60's, one set a 
little lower, as a secondary diversion (per code) in case the other fails. I 
have an SW Plus set up this way at our office, and the others use VFX 
inverters. All with OB transformers and the Skystream AC coupled of course. 
DC dumping with the Tristar is modulated and does not affect the AC at all.  
My Skystream has been modified by SWWP to reduce the 5 min. delay to about 30 
seconds, but they do not want to change the others. This is ok if you have PV 
as well.

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Magnum  MS 4448 AE issues

Hi All,

I am trying to help my brother-in-law figure out if he can continue using
his Magnum MS 4448 AE in his now off-grid home in Nova Scotia which we
installed about 3 years ago as at the time a battery backup inverter.  I
would preface the following with the information that he is a very
knowledgeable/hands on physicist (chair of the Physics department at
Dalhousie U. in Halifax, as well as an intrepid sailor having sailed all
over the world in 2 different sailboats he built himself).  I mention this
to explain that he is very capable and understands the inner workings of
his equipment much better than most wrenches I know (and certainly me).

About a year ago he installed a SkyStream 3.7 to add to the roughly 3 kW
of solar on an FM80, and then a short time later disconnected himself from
the grid.  He immediately started having problems with the Skystream
regularly disconnecting from his system and shutting down, then
reconnecting and cycling off again, were as there hadn't been a problem
while grid-tied.  After much investigation and conversation with SW
WindPower tech support and some software patches from them, things
improved somewhat.  But the regular disconnections continued.

Since then he has spent a great deal of time on the phone with Magnum's
tech support but they have not been able to answer his more technical
questions.  The best they've offered is to have him send the inverter in,
but of course that is now not practical.

The basic problem seems to be the voltage regulation during loading and
unloading of the inverter (even with medium sized loads). He tried to get
an internal wiring diagram and/or service manual from Magnum with no luck.
 He has not been able to get through to any engineers that would be able
to answer his more technical questions.  He is trying to figure out if
there are any internal set points that he can adjust or components that
can use tweaking. He has looked at the wave form with a scope and would
like to see if there are changes that he can make to the electronics to
allow for better regulation.

Here is what he has written me:

Here is my report on the Magnum MS4448AE observing the AC output with a
Fluke 189, measuring the max and min values in slow mode (not it's fast
mode which would look at spikes for short times):

I have checked several water heater elements running on 240 V (they are
between 2000 and 2500 Watts - immersion heaters). When switching any one
of them on, the voltage drops from around 240V to 197 V on average,
sometimes going as low as 170 V. These are serious drops, the lights dim
drastically and the radio may cut out for .5 s or so! Switching the
thermal heaters off again raise the output voltage to 271 V sometimes
reaching 282 V.

The battery bank during those test were at 53 V at the DC input side of
the inverter, measured at the inverter. The voltage drop for the DC was
around 1 V DC. The battery bank is a 800 AH (Rolls S530) with 2/0 copper
cables 5 - 6 ft inverter cables.

We had great wind yesterday and I had to switch to the hock up the
diversion load to 240 V so it would draw 2.5 kW.  Needless to say it
stalled the windmill each time my outback kicked on the diversion load. I
had to leave  the windmill off during the day. When I run the heating
element on 120 V (and therefore 625 W) it works beautiful if the wind
isn't too strong. Obviously the inverter handles 625 W quite well!

He is also thinking about replacing the inverter with a newer split phase
inverter (an XW or a Radian).  If anyone has an opinion about which might
work for him, I'd appreciate any feedback.  I am not a fan of Xantrex,
although I know some on the list really like the XW. If anyone has any
ideas of either a fix or someone we can get through to at Magnum, that
would be a great help.

Thanks,
Howie

[RE-wrenches] 48 VDC timer

2012-10-07 Thread Jeremy Rodriguez- All Solar Inc.
Anyone know of a reliable 48vdc timer to control a well pump?  Pump will be a 
Grundfos SQ 240VAC. 
The idea is to limit the run time to prevent over discharge of the battery 
bank. The only charging source for now will be wind power, and the wind gen 
requires AC voltage to connect. I'm concerned that the batteries may discharge, 
inverter (VFX 3648) shut down, and we loose input from the turbine. 
May be something else that works too. Right ??

[RE-wrenches] Trace ICM cable

2012-08-14 Thread Jeremy Rodriguez- All Solar Inc.
Hello,
Anyone have a source for a Xantrex PS series inverter control panel cable?
It's the 25 pin cable. Looks like an old printer cable. Also any luck with 
splicing (repairing) them as it's been cut. 
Contact me off list if u have one.

Re: [RE-wrenches] Thermal storage water stabilizer

2012-08-13 Thread Jeremy Rodriguez- All Solar Inc.
I've wondered about this as well with our unpressurized drainback systems. My 
HVAC supplier had told me that once you heat the water above 165 or so, that 
you basically have distilled it. Not sure. I thought you would need to boil it. 
Though we have had no issues with corrosion as we have had  some tanks in the 
field for years.

Look for burnt or hot spots near the top of the modules under the Jbox area. We 
have replaced a lot of modules of that age
Ameresco solar is supposedly making the replacement modules

Wrenches
Can someone advise how to best check for a bad cell and or battery in a bank of 
sealed AGMs
I have not installed many of these and have a client that I did for about a 
year ago. 
One looks like it may have leaked out some fluid from the top as it has some 
white residue there
