[RE-wrenches] Working with SBS 6.0 and LG Chem batteries

Hello Wrenches, We would like to hear from anyone who has had recent experiences dealing with installation and operation of SMA-America SBS 6.0 battery inverters, ABU's etc. along with LG Chem batteries. We would like to discuss the functionality of this combination of inverter/battery in compariso

Re: [RE-wrenches] Puzzle: Dryer does not work during FXR battery charging

Matt/Colleagues: This could be a case of elevated THD on the voltage waveform during battery charging. We wrote a case study on this problem. See this link , Case Study number 25. I hope information contained in this study he

Re: [RE-wrenches] Puzzle: Dryer does not work during FXR battery charging

My bet is these clients are on a budget given the battery voltage and small inverters. So there probably isn't any PV at the moment. I've been coming across a lot of these types of systems lately. Came across a Generac 120v, 6kw Eco Gen with 3,500 hours on it! Ouch and the clients just won't add PV

Re: [RE-wrenches] Puzzle: Dryer does not work during FXR battery charging

Ouch ! 2812 inverter. As a pro, you need to get them away from 12V IMHO. A home with appliances needs 24v and 4kw, both minimum. As Kent said, for now you can't do both gen charging and drying clothes. Why do you need a genset this time of year? Dave Angelini Offgrid Solar "we go where po

Re: [RE-wrenches] Puzzle: Dryer does not work during FXR battery charging

I have the same problem at my place, and a couple client's systems, with Magnum inverter/chargers and small ~2-3kw generators (not just Honda). But the problem appliance is microwave ovens, doesn't matter which microwave brand. They run fine straight from the generator, and fine from the inverter w

Re: [RE-wrenches] Puzzle: Dryer does not work during FXR battery charging

Matt, I haven't looked at what the FXR does to the waveform of a 3000-watt Honda, but I have used an oscilloscope to look at the waveform of a small generator while an FX inverter is charging batteries -- it pretty much makes an ugly mess of the voltage waveform. Not surprised to hear that so

[RE-wrenches] Puzzle: Dryer does not work during FXR battery charging

Hello All, My curiosity was piqued by a recent customer complaint. I'm hoping someone has bumped up against this issue before. The customer has a OB FXR2812 and a 3,000W Honda gen. Her gas clothes dryer runs just fine off the OB inverter. It runs properly on the Honda gen (when the inverter is b
