Frequently Asked Questions - X-Connect STUDER

Which inverters are compatible with the X-Connect?

The X-Connect is designed for Xtender inverters from the XTH series. It allows centralized, parallel, three-phase, or parallel + three-phase systems.

How many inverters can be installed with a single X-Connect?

A single X-Connect can accommodate up to 3 inverters. By combining multiple frames, up to 9 inverters can be installed.

What maximum power can be achieved with an X-Connect system?

With 3 X-Connect systems, the maximum total power is 72 kW.

What does the X-Connect kit include?

The kit includes 400 A DC circuit breakers, 400 A DC fuses, DIN rails, interconnection tubes, cable glands, a 90 mm² DC cable with lugs, and the necessary fasteners.

How to install cables in the X-Connect?

The frame has four 50 mm holes on each side for AC and DC inputs/outputs. Plugs, cable glands, or installation channels can be used. It is recommended to install plugs to facilitate by-pass.

Is the X-Connect suitable for a three-phase installation?

Yes, the X-Connect supports three-phase configurations as well as parallel + three-phase configurations.

How to ensure ventilation of the system?

The openings at the bottom of the frame must not be obstructed as they ensure air intake for ventilation of the inverters.

Can the system be maintained without cutting off all power?

Installing plugs/sockets at the input/output allows a simple by-pass of the system during maintenance operations.

What safety precautions should be taken?

Installation must be carried out by a qualified professional. It is imperative to cut off the power before any intervention.

How to maintain the X-Connect on a daily basis?

Clean with a dry, non-abrasive cloth, regularly check connections, circuit breakers, and fuses.

INTRODUCTION

Congratulations! You just purchased the X-Connect, a mounting frame to assemble a multi-Xtender system.

The X-Connect will offer you a flexible and economical solution for high power systems based on inverters from the XTH product range. Indeed, it will make the cabling of centralized, parallel, 3-phase or even parallel + 3-phase systems much easier.

Supply list

In order to simplify the installation of an X-Connect system as much as possible, the mounting frame is supplied with the following items:

Pre-installed DC circuit breakers 3 x 400A

Pre-installed DC fuses 3 x 400A

Pre-installed DIN rails

Interconnection pipes and glands for auxiliary contacts wiring Interconnection pipe and gland for AC wiring

Interconnection pipes and glands + 90mm ² wire terminated with appropriates ring tongues for DC wiring from Xtender to breakers and fuses

Screws set for frame assembly.

Cabling flexibility*

The X-Connect has been designed to offer a large range of cabling possibilities in order to best adapt to each environment.

Four 50 mm holes on each side of the frame enable input and output cabling (AC and/or DC) by either plugs/sockets or glands or installation channels. These inputs/outputs can likewise be carried out downwards via channels. If this later solution is chosen, the installer will take care not to seal the apertures down of the fixing frame. These apertures allow on one side the cables input and on the other side the Xtender ventilation air entrance.

Studer Innotec highly recommends the installation of plugs/sockets at the input/output of the system. This allows a simple and secure by-pass of the system during maintenance operations.

Multi X-Connect systems

It is possible to combine up to 9 Xtender inverter/chargers (3 X-Connect systems) allowing to reach a total power of 72kW.

*The output cabling as well as the glands (or 400VAc plug and socket) are not supplied with the X-Connect.
