To connect an ambient or module temperature sensor to the power supply
and to the SolarEdge gateway:
The same power supply can be used for both sensors.
1
Use a flat screwdriver to open the sensor cover screws and remove the cover.
2
Insert the cable through the supplied gland and rubber seal, and into the sensor opening.
3
Depending on the sensor type, connect as follows (see Figure 18):
For ambient temperature sensor:
Connect the wires to the 3-pin connector: Loosen the screws and insert the wire ends into the
OUT
,
UB
and
GND
pins.
Connect the other ends of the wires to the external power supply and the SolarEdge gateway as
follows:
o
UB to V+ of the power supply
o
GND to V- of the power supply
o
Out to V2 of the SolarEdge gateway
For module temperature sensor:
Connect the wires to the 2-pin connector: Loosen the screws and insert the wire ends into the
UB
and
GND/OUT
pins.
Connect the other ends of the wires to the external power supply and the SolarEdge gateway as
follows:
o
UB to V+ of the power supply
o
GND/OUT to I+ of the SolarEdge gateway
Verify that the pins are configured to -10 to 120C. If required, move the black covers to the
necessary configuration as shown in Figure 19.
