1 phase Kit 6Kva - 5kwh

Description

This compact ESS package is ideal for situations where a limited amount of energy storage is sufficient, or as an entry-level configuration for an expandable Victron battery system. The kit consists of one Voltsmile V10 Classic battery, coupled to a powerful Victron Multi RS Solar 48/6000 and includes all the necessary components and cabling to create a fully functioning energy storage system. Thanks to the included wall mount, the installation is compact, convenient and easy to expand to two or more batteries.

Victron Multi RS Solar 48/6000 - powerful, quiet and smart

The Victron Multi RS Solar is the heart of the system. This inverter, battery charger and MPPT solar charger in one offers a capacity of 6 kVA and is suitable for 48V battery systems. What makes the Multi RS special is the presence of two completely separate MPPT tracking inputs. Each of these MPPTs supports an input of up to 3 kWp at a voltage range of up to 450 V. This allows a total of up to 6 kWp of solar panels to be connected directly to the Multi RS, split between two orientations or string lengths. Each tracker can easily connect 8 to 10 standard panels of, for example, 435 Wp. In addition to this DC solar coupling, the Multi RS also supports AC coupling, making it possible to integrate an existing PV inverter into the system.

Thanks to modern high-frequency technology, this inverter is extremely light (only 11 kg), energy-efficient and whisper quiet with a maximum noise level of only 43 dB.

Cerbo GX - the brains of the system

For controlling, monitoring and optimising the system, the Cerbo GX is indispensable. This communication centre ensures that all components in the system - from the Multi RS to the batteries, energy meter and PV inverters, if any - work together perfectly. Through the Cerbo GX, the ESS system is intelligently controlled: it determines whether to charge or discharge, whether to supply energy to the grid, and keeps real-time data on the entire system. The Cerbo GX enables monitoring via a local display (GX Touch), via the Victron Remote Portal (VRM) or via direct access via LAN or WiFi.

The set also includes a 0.9-metre UTP cable to connect the Cerbo GX directly to the Multi RS.

Victron energy meter - accurate net metering

An energy meter is essential for an ESS system. This Victron meter is measured via current transformers (CT terminals) and is suitable for both single- and three-phase main connections. On a 3-phase grid, this meter allows the Multi RS (a single-phase inverter), to control based on the total energy consumption of the building. This makes it possible - depending on the ESS configuration - to balance the total power on all phases together to 0 W.

See the following example: ESS is connected to L1 and by compensating phases L2 and L3, it regulates the total power at the distribution panel to 0 W.

If the "Individual phase" option is selected, the (1 phase) ESS uses the battery to balance only L1 to 0 W. L2 and L3 are visible on the GX device, but are not used in any way by the ESS.

With a single-phase grid connection, the energy meter will of course simply operate as a measurement point on the L1 phase.

Use in a three-phase grid - smart integration with single-phase Multi RS

Although the system is built around a single-phase inverter, it can operate fine on a three-phase grid connection. There are two ways to integrate the Multi RS:

Option 1: Only AC-in is connected. The inverter is then connected to the grid in parallel. Only one cable is needed, but in case of a power failure, the whole system fails.

Option 2: AC-out 1 is also connected. This output is uninterruptible power supply (UPS), which means that all equipment behind this output continues to function in case of mains failure. For example, the entire L1 phase can be powered via this output. This does require modifications to the distribution board and a separate cable for AC-out.

Compatibility with AC PV inverters

The system also supports existing grid-connected PV inverters. If the PV inverter is connected to AC-out 1, it continues to operate during grid failure - provided it is properly configured. The Multi RS automatically detects whether there is feed-in via AC PV and, if necessary, increases the frequency to prevent overloading once the batteries are full. This requires proper setting of the PV inverter to respond to frequency increase. A 1:1 rule applies here: the inverter must not have more power than the Multi RS itself (max. 6 kVA).

Voltsmile V10 Classic batteries - powerful, safe and scalable

The two included Voltsmile V10 Classic batteries provide a combined capacity of 10.24 kWh. These high-quality LiFePO4 batteries offer high energy density, a life of over 6000 cycles at 80% DOD and a usable capacity of 95%. Each battery is fully compatible with Victron via CAN bus and comes with an integrated BMS for active protection.

The V10 modules come with a wall mount (V-Cabinet) for two batteries. This Plug & Play mounting system saves floor space, keeps the installation orderly and allows batteries to be hung safely and neatly. On the front of each battery is an SOC indicator that makes it easy to read the remaining charge.

Security and distribution through the Lynx Distributor

A Victron Lynx Distributor is used for the 48VDC part. This bus bar makes it possible to connect the batteries neatly and safely and to secure them with supplied mega-fuses: two of 100 A (one per battery) and one of 150 A (towards the Multi RS). All connections are via pre-assembled cable sets:

2x 2-metre cable sets (25 mm²) from the batteries to the Lynx;

1x 1-metre cable set (50 mm²) from the Lynx to the Multi RS.

Each cable is fitted with M8 cable lugs and designed for a secure, low-voltage connection. Also included is the CAN bus cable for communication between the batteries and the Cerbo GX.
