03 Introduction
3. Introduction
3.1 Basic Instruction
The Afore AF-SL series hybrid inverters are designed to increase energy
independence for homeowners. Energy management is based on time-of-use
and demand charge rate structures, significantly reduce the amount of energy
purchased from the public grid and optimize self-consumption.

Note:
However if an external residual current device (RCD) (type B is recommended) is mandatory,
the switch must be triggered at a residual current of 300 mA (recommended). RCD of other
specifications can also be used according to local standard.
To maintain the neutral continuity in standalone mode, as required by Australian safety code,
the neutral cable on the AC Load output port and AC-Grid Port must be connected together.
3.2 Operation Modes

3.2.1 Self-Use
The Self-Use mode is for the regions with low feed-in tariff and high electricity
prices. The energy produced by the PV system is used to optimize
self-consumption needs. The excess energy is used to recharge the batteries,
any remaining excess is then exported to the grid.
Energy flow:

Introduction 04
Note: Advance Setting
When select 0 W under P_Feed menu, the inverter will export zero energy to the
grid.
When select xx W under P_Feed menu, the inverter will export customized
energy to the grid.
3.2.2 Time of Use

The Time of Use mode is designed to reward customers who do their part to
reduce demand on the electric grid, particularly during peak usage periods. Use
most of your electricity from PV energy and during off-peak time periods, and you
could significantly lower your monthly bill.

3.The Afore inverter does not include a connection terminal for a remote battery
temperature sensor. If installing Afore inverter with lead acid batteries please check
with Afore inverter for advice regarding charge settings.

4.3.4 AC Connection
The AC terminal contains “GRID” and “EPS”, GRID for load, and EPS for
emergency load.
Before connecting, a separate AC breaker between individual inverter and AC
input power is necessary. This will ensure the inverter be securely disconnected
during maintenance and fully protected from current of AC input.
An extra AC breaker is needed for On-Grid connection to be isolated from grid
when necessary. Below are requirements for the On-Grid AC-breaker.
Inverter Model AC breaker specification
AF1-3.6K-SL-1 32A/200V/230V AC breaker
AF3-6K-SL 63A/200V/230V AC breaker
Note:
Qualified electrician will be required for the wiring.
Model Wire Size Cable（mm²） Torque value
1-6kW 8-10AWG 4-6 1.2N·m
Please follow steps for AC connection

• Connect DC protector or breaker first before connecting.
• emove insulation sleeve 11mm(0.5 inch) length, unscrew the bolts, insert the
AC input wires according to polarities indicated on the terminal block and
tighten the terminal screws.
Step 1
10±0.5mm
Note:
Cable suggestion
Cross-section 8-10AWG
Installation 20
Note:
The wiring terminals should be wrapped with insulation tape,
otherwise it will cause a short circuit and damage the inverter.
Note:
The Max. power load connects to EPS port should not
exceed the inverter's EPS Max. output power range.

4.3.5 DRM
The inverter provides a terminal block for connecting to a demand response enabling device
(DRED). The DRED asserts demand response modes (DRMs). The inverter detects and
initiates a response to all supported demand response commands within 2s.
The inverter only supports DRM0 : The inverter is in the state of “Turn off”.

Warranty Terms (Overseas)
Afore New Energy Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (Hereinafter referred to as the "Afore") Product Warranty Terms
Afore offers standard factory warranty for the inverters which is valid 5 years from the date of installa�on and no more
than 5 and a half years from the delivery date from Afore.
The warranty applies to:
AF1K-SL-1 / AF1.5K-SL-1 / AF2K-SL-1 / AF2.5K-SL-1 / AF3K-SL-1 / AF3.6K-SL-1/

AF3K-SL / AF3.6K-SL / AF4K-SL / AF4.6K-SL / AF5K-SL / AF5.5K-SL / AF6K-SL
1.Product Quality Standards and Warranty

1.1 Afore inverters comply with local safety regulations related to the national grid and grid standards.
1.2 The inverter warranty is decided by Afore and its distributor.
1.3 Spare parts warranty is valid 3 months (beginning from the date of shipment), during the warranty period, Afore is
responsible for the replacement.
Spare Parts
NO. Item
1 DC PV Connector（MC4）
2 AC Connector
3 Fuse
4 Enclosure
1.4 The monitoring module warranty is valid for 12 months (beginning from the date of shipment).
1.5 After the products leaving the factory, the appearance damage (scratches, rust, chemical damage) is beyond
warranty.
2.Warranty Exceptions
2.1 Damage or lose to inverter or accessory caused by logistics.
2.2 Inverter failure caused by non-compliance with national utility grid standard which lead to eg. abnormal grid
voltage, grid frequency etc.
2.3 Inverter malfunction or damage caused by non-professional or non-qualified personnel
2.4 Failure to observe the user manual, the installation guide, and the maintenance regulations
2.5 Remove or damage warranty seal
2.6 Change or remove specification label, serial number (SN)
2.7 Product malfunction or damage due to disobey to relevant laws and regulations or technical requirements in
power plant design, construction or installation works
2.8 Solar panels’ input parameters exceed the inverter’s allowed range
2.9 Product malfunction or damage due to installation on movable device or in vibration occasions
2.10 Failure or damage caused by corrosion, lightning and other natural damage or force majeure
2.11 Unauthorized alteration or disassembly of the product
2.12 Damage or malfunction caused by other facilities eg. Surge damage caused by switching on/off high power
generator
2.13 Low electricity generation because of inverter self-protection caused by environmental reasons (such
as the installation environment, natural environment, grid environment, etc.) is not a quality problem.
3.Repair and Replacement

3.1 When a failure occurs, the user should check and record from the screen display the error code, DC voltage, AC
voltage data or phenomena ect., then contact your local dealer.
3.2 When the dealer or Afore confirm that it is the product quality problem , PCB/components or the whole faulty
product will be replaced.
3.3 For the product has been replaced or repaired, the remaining warranty entitlement will be transferred to the
