No problems that I know of and about 15 that work fine. I only use the XW for my clients but many out there. You said the voltage decreased below absorb when you tried, EQ will not start unless it has gone thru absorb to float. The work around to start EQ without going thru the cycle is to pr

It is of grid and, yes, the generator was running when I attempted to equalize. Schneider has no solution and it is just outside the 2 year warranty. I am going to try a couple of things when I go back: - setting the battery type to the default for FLA battery - it is set to Custom battery r

Is this an off grid system? If so, the generator needs to be running to execute EQ on the inverter. Thank you, Maverick > On Jan 31, 2020, at 1:50 PM, Eric Smiley wrote: > >  > I recently discovered a critical problem with a client's SW inverter and I > want to know if others have encounte

That was an issue back in the 90s with the original Trace SW 4024 inverters as well.  The solution was just to temporarily set the normal bulk setting to the required EQ voltage.  Never did figure that one out, but they were otherwise great inverters that are still in service today. Ray Walter

I recently discovered a critical problem with a client's SW inverter and I want to know if others have encountered this. It's an SW4024 with Flooded Lead Acid batteries. The system is configured using the Custom Battery setting: Bulk and Absorption are set to 29.2 V. Equalize is set to 32 V. The pr
