Visited a prospect last week who has a larger system that was installed wrong. We are looking at fixing it. One of the issues, the customer was told to buy and install a Kohler 6VSG 48 Volt DC generator. The original installer ran the DC outputs into the AC inputs of the inverters. Needless to say, application does not work. It was mentioned to me that these DC Gensets need a “Buffer “ between the gen and the battery bank.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"> Have reached out to Kohler, no clue, Kohlers top resellers, no clue. Off grid resellers in our industry, no clue. Anybody here have a clue and the proper way to run / use this generator to safely charge the large battery bank.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Any and all help greatly appreciated.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Thx<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Peter Giroux<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">American Solar & Alternative Energy Solutions inc<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Beautiful Norcross Ga<o:p></o:p></p></div><span>_______________________________________________</span><br><span>List sponsored by Redwood Alliance</span><br><span></span><br><span>Pay optional member dues here: http://re-wrenches.org</span><br><span></span><br><span>List Address: RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org</span><br><span></span><br><span>Change listserver email address & settings:</span><br><span>http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org</span><br><span></span><br><span>There are two list archives for searching.
