[RE-wrenches] Alpha Solaris 3500 xp

[Ray]

Greetings Wrenches;

I have recently decommissioned a 2007(?) Alpha Solaris 3500 XP grid tied 
battery backup system.  The batteries were cooked and the whole unit was 
off line.  The customer was no longer interested in the recurring costs 
of backup, so we elected to rewire the array for higher voltage and add 
a GT only inverter for about the cost of battery replacement.

My question: Is this unit worth reusing as a UPS or off grid inverter?  
I don't think GTB is feasible again as I doubt this meets the latest 
UL1741, and the PV control is not even MPPT.   I might reuse the 
enclosure for batteries, and pull the inverter out for someone else's 
discount 48 v Craig's list experiment.

Does anyone have a manual for it?   I know Alpha purchased Outback 
Power, but there is no mention of the Solaris in a search of the various 
Alpha Group websites. Anyone interested on a great deal on this thing 
can contact me off list.

As always, thanks in advance for all of your knowledgeable replies,

--
