I am in the early stages of designing and installing a PV system based around a Quattro 24V 8k.
Initially the system will only function on the 8000W generator.
I have x4 12.8V 200A lithium batteries series/Parallel connected (make: Bate with integral BMS - no external connections to this). System voltage thus 25.6V.
The on battery displays all show a charge state of 72%.
I can find only the most minimal documentation for these batteries.
With the generator set running and warm (with no problems presently supplying the house needs of ~4kW) when I connect and turn on the Quattro the generator fails to deliver the power required and dies.
All dip switches are set to factory configuration(Off) and have not been touched so Power Assist 11A and Power Control 6A ought to be enabled. ds3 and ds 4 are both in the Off position thus charge normally limited to 25% despite the data sheet saying the default position 75% (ds4 On and ds3 Off). whilst clearly stating factory setting Off for ALL dip switches, all rather confusing
I have two principal questions:
1) Will the BMS integrated system handle the battery management more or less regardless of the Quattro's battery settings?
2) Most importantly, what is causing the generator to shut down/overload and where should I start looking?
Quattro SN: HQ2239PJPEH.
Many thanks.
