2. Product introduction

2.1 Product description

PowerAdapt is a power blending solution that uses solar power as primary source and tops up the missing power with the connected AC power supply to create a constant power output. It enables a continuous operation experience and provides the option to operate even if the AC power source is missing.

TM077192

2.2 Variants

PowerAdapt works only with the RSI connected externally. PowerAdapt is available in 3 variants:

  • PowerAdapt, 16 A
  • PowerAdapt, 31 A
  • PowerAdapt, 72 A.

See the separate installation and operating instructions for MP 204 and RSI.

2.2.1 MP 204 control unit

MP 204 protects RSI by disconnecting the AC power source when one of the trip limits is reached.

Trip conditions:

  • temperature
  • missing phase
    • overvoltage
  • undervoltage.

Sensor inputs and outputs:

- Pt100 or Pt1000 sensor.

2.2.2 RSI

Grundfos Renewable Solar Inverter (RSI) is an off-grid solar inverter converting the DC power output from the solar panel to AC power supply for pump operation. RSI can be used in both new and existing systems as long as the motor specifications are compatible and are suitable for use with a variable frequency drive. The following Grundfos pump types can be used in applications with RSI:

• CR
SP
• NB, NK
• MTR
• CM
• TP.

2.3 Intended use

Grundfos PowerAdapt is a power blending solution that ensures a constant power output by supplementing solar power with AC electricity from an additional source to the necessary extent. The solution allows solar power to be the main source of energy while benefiting of a stable operation.

8. Starting up the product

RSI needs to be configured according to the installed motor and pump. See the installation and operating instructions for RSI.

Check that RSI with the motor and the pump operates according to the specifications.

8.1 Operation

The system ensures an automatic operation. When the system is powered up, the DC source powers directly the RSI. The AC source is connected with a 3 minutes power-on delay. The 3 minutes delay protects against voltage transients during start-up in the generator application.

8.2 Derating and ambient temperature

Under maximum operation conditions, the ambient temperature cannot exceed 40 °C . Higher ambient temperatures are allowed, but only with a derating current indicated in the figure below.

DANGER

Electric shock

Death or serious personal injury

- Maintenance and inspection must be performed by a qualified electrician.

Grundfos PowerAdapt - Electric shock - 1

DANGER

Electric shock

Death or serious personal injury

- Disconnect the power sources and ensure continuous disconnection during maintenance of the drive and load.

If the variant has heatsinks attached, they must be maintained for proper functionality. If the heatsinks are covered in dust or any other materials, such as a spider's web, the heatsink does not dissipate the heat sufficiently.

To prevent this issue, frequently inspect the heatsinks and clean or remove any material preventing airflow from going through the fins of the heatsink.
