2. DESCRIPTION 2.1 In general The basis of the Quattro is an extremely powerful sine inverter, battery charger and automatic switch in a compact casing. The Quattro features the following additional, often unique characteristics: Two AC inputs; integrated switch-over system between shore voltage and generating set The Quattro features two AC inputs (AC-in-1 and AC-in-2) for connecting two independent voltage sources. For example, two generator sets, or a mains supply and a generator set. The Quattro automatically selects the input where voltage is present. If voltage is present on both inputs, the Quattro selects the AC-in-1 input, to which the generating set is normally connected.

Two AC outputs Besides the usual uninterruptable output (AC-out-1), an auxiliary output (AC-out-2) is available that disconnects its load in the event of battery operation. Example: an electric boiler that is allowed to operate only if the genset is running or shore power is available. Automatic and uninterruptible switching* In the event of a supply failure or when the genset is switched off, the Quattro will switch over to inverter operation and take over the supply of the connected devices. This is done so quickly that operation of computers and other electronic devices is not disturbed (Uninterruptible Power Supply or UPS functionality).

This makes the Quattro highly suitable as an emergency power system in industrial and telecommunication applications. Virtually unlimited power thanks to parallel operation Up to 4 Quattros can operate in parallel. Four 48/15000/200 units, for example, will provide 48 kW / 60 kVA output power and 800 Amps charging capacity. Three phase capability Three units can be configured for three-phase output. But that’s not all: up to 6 sets of three units can be parallel connected to provide 144 kW / 180 kVA inverter power and more than 2400 A charging capacity. PowerControl – maximum use of limited shore current The Quattro can supply a huge charging current.

This implies heavy loading of the shore connection or generating set. For both AC inputs, therefore, a maximum current can be set. The Quattro then considers other power users, and only uses 'surplus' current for charging purposes. - Input AC-in-1, to which usually a generating set is connected, can be set to a fixed maximum with DIP switches, with VE.Net or with a PC, so that the generating set is never overloaded. - Input AC-in-2 can also be set to a fixed maximum. In mobile applications (ships, vehicles), however, a variable setting by means of a Multi Control Panel will usually be selected.

In this way the maximum current can be adapted to the available shore current in an extremely simple manner. PowerAssist – Extended use of your generating set and shore current: the Quattro “co-supply” feature The Quattro operates in parallel with the generating set or the shore connection. A current shortfall is automatically compensated: the Quattro draws extra power from the battery and helps along. A current surplus is used to recharge the battery. Three programmable relays The Quattro is equipped with 3 programmable relays. The relays can be programmed for all kinds of other applications however, for example as a starter relay for a generating set.

Two programmable analogue/digital input/output ports The Quattro is equipped with 2 analogue/digital input/output ports. These ports can be used for several purposes. One application is communication with the BMS of a lithium-ion battery. Frequency shift When solar inverters are connected to the output of a Quattro, the excess solar energy is used to recharge the batteries. Once the absorption voltage is reached, the Quattro will shut down the solar inverter by shifting the output frequency to 1 Hz (from 50 Hz to 51 Hz, for example). Once the battery voltage has dropped slightly, the frequency returns to normal, and the solar inverters will restart.

Built-in Battery Monitor (optional) The ideal solution is when Quattros are part of a hybrid system (diesel generator, inverter/chargers, storage battery, and alternative energy). The built-in battery monitor can be set to start and stop the generator: - start at a preset % discharge level, and/or - start (with a preset delay) at a preset battery voltage, and/or - start (with a preset delay) at a preset load level. - Stop at a preset battery voltage, or - stop (with a preset delay) after the bulk charge phase has been completed, and/or - stop (with a preset delay) at a preset load level. * Not evaluated for UL 1741 3

Solar energy The Quattro is extremely suitable for solar energy applications. It can be used for building autonomous systems as well as mains-coupled systems. Emergency power or autonomous operation on mains failure Houses or buildings provided with solar panels or a combined micro-scale heating and power plant (a power-generating central heating boiler) or other sustainable energy sources have a potential autonomous energy supply which can be used for powering essential equipment (central heating pumps, refrigerators, deep freeze units, Internet connections, etc.) during a power failure.

A problem in this regard, however, is that mains-coupled solar panels and/or micro-scale heating and power plants drop out as soon as the mains supply fails. With a Quattro and batteries, this problem can be solved in a simple manner: the Quattro can replace the mains supply during a power failure. When sustainable energy sources produce more power than necessary, the Quattro will use the surplus to charge the batteries; in the event of a shortfall, the Quattro will supply additional power from its battery energy resources. Programmable with DIP switches, VE.Net panel or personal computer The Quattro is supplied and ready for use.

Three features are available for changing certain settings if desired: - The most important settings (including parallel operation of up to three devices and 3-phase operation) can be changed in a very simple manner using Quattro DIP switches. - All settings can be changed with a PC and free-of-charge software, downloadable from our website, www.victronenergy.com . 2.2 Battery charger Adaptive 4-stage charging characteristics: bulk – absorption – float – storage The microprocessor-driven adaptive battery management system can be adjusted for various types of batteries. The adaptive function automatically adapts the charging process to battery use. The right amount of charge:

variable absorption time In the event of slight battery discharge, absorption is kept short to prevent overcharging and excessive gas formation. After deep discharging, the absorption time is automatically extended in order to fully charge the battery. Preventing damage due to excessive gassing: the BatterySafe mode If, in order to quickly charge a battery, a high charge current in combination with a high absorption voltage has been chosen, damage due to excessive gassing will be prevented by automatically limiting the rate of voltage increase once the gassing voltage has been reached. Less maintenance and ageing when the battery is not in use:

the storage mode The Storage mode kicks in whenever the battery has not been subjected to discharge during 24 hours. In the Storage mode float voltage is reduced to 2,2 V/cell (52,8 V for 48 V battery) to minimise gassing and corrosion of the positive plates. Once a week the voltage is raised back to the absorption level to “equalize” the battery. This feature prevents stratification of the electrolyte and sulphation, a major cause of early battery failure. Increasing service life of the battery: temperature compensation The temperature sensor (supplied with the product) serves to reduce charging voltage when the battery temperature rises.

This is particularly important for maintenance-free batteries, which could otherwise dry out by overcharging. Battery voltage sense: the correct charge voltage Voltage loss due to cable resistance can be compensated by using the voltage sense facility to measure voltage directly on the DC bus or on the battery terminals.

For more information on adaptive charging, please also refer to the General Technical Information on our website.

2.3 Self-consumption solar energy storage systems (ESS)* When the Quattro is used in a configuration that will feed back energy to the grid, it is required to enable grid-code compliance by selecting the grid code country setting with the VEConfigure tool to comply with the local rules. Once set, a password will be required to disable grid code compliance or change grid-code-related parameters. If the Quattro does not support the local grid code, an external certified interface device should be used to connect the Quattro to the grid.

The Quattro can also be used as a bidirectional inverter operating parallel to the grid, controlled by an external source, and integrated into an energy storage system (ESS).
