Growatt UE series inverters are grid-tied inverters which convert DC current

generated by PV modules into AC current and feed it into the public grid in three-

phase. Growatt UE series inverters are multi-string inverters with multi-MPP trackers,

which mean they are able to connect to different PV module arrays.

As drawings shown above, a complete Grid-tied PV system consists of PV modules,

PV inverters, public grid and other components. Moreover, PV inverters always act as

key components.

When design a PV system contains Growatt UE series inverters or any other Growatt

inverters, the system designing software ShineDesign (download from site:

www.ginverter.com) will provide adequate supports.

Growatt UE is designed to use worldwide, hence the inverters meet different safety

standards of variety countries and regions：

DANGER!

Danger to life due to high voltages in the inverter!

All work on the inverter may be carried out by qualified personnel only.

The appliance is not to be used by children or persons with reduced physical, sensory

or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been

given supervision or instruction.

Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

CAUTION!

Danger of burn injuries due to hot enclosure parts!

During operation, the upper lid of the enclosure and the enclosure body may become

hot.

Only touch the lower enclosure lid during operation.

CAUTION!

Possible damage to health as a result of the effects of radiation!

Do not stay closer than 20 cm to the inverter for any length of time.

Grounding the PV generator

Comply with the local requirements for grounding the PV modules and the PV

generator.

Growatt recommends connecting the generator frame and other electrically

conductive surfaces in a manner which ensures continuous conduction and ground

these in order to have optimal protection of the system and personnel.

CAUTION!

Possible damage the PV modules as a result of Identification

of String Failure!

The GROWATT UE Inverter is equipped with a system which recognizes total failure of

individual strings or part-strings.

Before opening the packing box of Growatt UE, please note that whether there are

any visible external damages.

Once open the packing box, please check the delivery for completeness and for any

visible external damages of the inverter. If there are anything damaged or missing,

please contact your dealer. Complete delivery should contain as follows:

2.2 Information of Label

The label contains information as below:

The inverter type/model (Model Name);

The certificates and approvals (Certificate

Number and Logos at the bottom of the

label);

Specifications of the inverter (From UDCmax

to Operation Ambient Temperature.

3 Mounting

3.1 Selecting Mounting Location

This is guidance for installer to choose a suitable installation location, to avoid

potential damages to device and operators.

The wall selected to install the inverter must be strong and firm

enough to support and bear the weight of the inverter for a long

period time. (Refer to Chapter 10 Specifications)

The location selected must be suitable for inverters’ dimension.

(Refer to 3.2 Dimensions and Required Clearances)

Do not install the inverter on structures constructed of flammable

or thermolabile materials.

Never install the inverter in environment of little or no air flow, nor

dust environment. That may derate the efficiency of the cooling fan

of the inverter; hence derate the efficiency of PV inverter.The

cooling fans and air grills should be cleaned every half or a year.

The Ingress Protection rate is IP65 which means the inverter can be

installed outdoors and indoors.

Do not expose the inverter to direct sunlight, in order to avoid the

power and efficiency derating caused by excessive heating.

The humidity of the installation location should be 0~95%

without condensation.

The ambient temperature of the inverter should be -25℃~+60℃.

The installation location must be freely and safely to get at all

times.

Vertically installation and make sure the connection of inverter

must be downwards. Never install horizontal and avoids forward

and sideways tilt.(Refer to drawings below)

Notice the minimum clearances of the inverter. (Refer to 3.2

Dimensions and Required Clearances).

Do not install the inverter near television antenna or any other

antennas and antenna cables.

Do not install the inverter in living area, the noise caused by the

machine may affect on daily life.

For security reasons, DON’T install the inverter in place where the

children can reach.

However, additional clearances are needed to guarantee running and operation of

the inverters. Especially when several inverters are installed together, the clearances

between the inverters and objects are necessary.

3.3 Mounting the Bracket

To mount the inverter on the wall, we should mount the bracket to the wall firmly

first of all.

Overview of the Bracket:

Hint: Data units in mm

Steps:

Drill holes for screws while use the mounting frame as template.6 holes for

Growatt 10000/12000UE and 8 for Growatt 18000/20000UE.

Fix the mounting frame on the wall as the figures shown below, combine as

the screws as the Items overview picture shows (items C, D, E, F).

Notes

mounting frame is really firmly mounted on the wall after carefully checking.

: Never mount the inverter on the bracket unless you are sure that the

3.4 Mounting Inverter

After the bracket is firmly mounted on the wall, then mount the inverter on the bracket.

Hang the inverter on the bracket through the match hooks on bracket and the

back of the inverter.

4Electrical connections 

4.1 Wiring AC Output

Measure the public grid voltage and frequency (Voltage: 400Vac;

Frequency: 50Hz/60Hz; in 3-Phase);

Open the breaker or fuse between the PV inverter and utility;

Screw torsional force is 8 kg/cm;

Rise up the Growatt UE a little higher than the bracket. Considered the weight of

Growatt UE, you need handles (items G shown in chapter 2.1) to hang on the

inverter. During the process please maintain the balance of the Growatt UE.

The open circuit voltage of each string should never exceed 1000Vac, while the

length must be less than 30m;

The diagram drawing of DC side is shown as below, notice that the connectors

are in paired (male and female connectors). The connectors for PV arrays and

inverters are MC (multi-connector) connectors;

Commissioning 5

If the inverter is connected with PV panel arrays and the input voltage is

higher than 300Vac, while the AC grid is not connected yet, LCD will

display messages in order as below:

Company info  Basic info  State info 

The LCD will repeat clue to No AC connection at State info and the LED

turns red.

In State info, operate by knocks will change the LCD display:

State info  (knock) Input info  (knock) Output info  (knock) E_day

power curve

Turn on the AC breaker or close the fuse between inverter and grid, the

system will operate normally.

Under normal operating conditions, the LCD displays ‘Power: xx.xx Kw’ at

State info, this is the power fed into grid. The LED turns green.

Finish commissioning.

6Operation Modes 

6.1 Normal Mode

In this mode, the inverter works normally and LED turns green.

Whenever the DC voltage is lower than 300Vac, the inverter will work in waiting

state and attempt to connect the grid. In waiting state the inverter consumes

just enough power generated by the PV panel to monitor the internal system

status;

Whenever the DC voltage is higher than 350Vac, inverter converts power to grid

as generated by the PV panels;

Notes:

sufficient.

The inverter starts up automatically when DC power from the PV panel is

6.2 Fault Mode

The internal intelligent controller can continuously monitor and adjust the system

status. If inverter finds any unexpected conditions such as system fault and inverter

fault, the fault information will be displayed on the LCD. In fault mode the LED turns

red.

Notes:

LCD. Detailed fault information refers to Chapter 9.2 ERROR messages displayed on

6.3 Shutdown Mode

Inverters automatically stop running during periods of little or no sunlight. In

shutdown mode the inverters take no power from the grid and panel, and the LCD

and LED turns off.

Notes:

Mode. If the PV string DC voltage is too low, the inverter will also turn to Shutdown

LCD display7

In the lower right corner of inverter there is the LCD display. We can check inverter

running status, historical generation data, etc, on the LCD screen. Items displayed

can be changed by knock, you can also set some parameters by knock.

7.1 General LCD display
