INVERTER SWITCHGEAR MODULE All Switchgear in a Single Enclosure
ISM 120/240
The entire electronics for a battery based PV system in a single enclosure for quick, easy installation. The Apollo Solar ISM 120/240 comes factory assembled with the Inverter Breakers for DC input and AC input / output / bypass breakers, ready to add breaker Pacs from Apollo Solar for Charge Controller, GFP and Generator / Grid Selector. Thus, the AC and DC disconnects, bus bars, shunt and connectors are in a single enclosure. The installer need only connect the PV Input, Battery Cables, AC Load, and optional AC Line/Generator Input from the outside, providing a complete plug-and-play solar power switchgear package.
•
Fits all Apollo Solar Inverters: TrueSineWaveTM TSW3224 and TSW4048
•
Fits all Apollo Solar T80 or T80HV TurboChargerTM Charge Controllers
Lower Costs Using a Factory-Built Appliance The ISM can provide 240/120VAC split phase, 120VAC single phase or 230V AC power for the global market with the selection of our available AC Circuit Breaker Pacs. The ISM is easily installed into tight spaces while enabling the Apollo Solar TSW Inverters and TurboChargersTM, thus providing a complete power center with PV input.
Simply Connect PV Input, Battery Cables & AC Save time on every installation Small Footprint: 11” wide, 15” tall, 7”deep (shown installed with a TSW3224) Modular Design – One ISM per Inverter UL1741 certified, NEC compliant Inverter / Battery breaker included Slots for 18 DIN rail ½” wide breakers: • DC Breakers for Charge Controller • GFP on PV input • AC Breakers and bypass for Inverter • AC Generator / Grid input selector
The wiring box has clearly labeled connectors for the PV array input, the battery cables, and a second bypass toggle space is provided for optional generator input.
The ISM 120/240 Ships Fully Assembled with: Powder coated Aluminum cabinet and mounting hardware • Three 40Amp, 120/240 VAC, two-pole, DIN-rail breakers for AC input, inverter bypass, and AC output to load. • One F frame 250A 3/8” stud inverter DC input breaker • One Ground bus bar • One AC Neutral bus bar • One System negative terminal bus bar • One Battery positive terminal bus plate • One 500Amp/50mV shunt • AC Input and Output wires (THHN) for the TSW Inverter • Room to expand – total knock-out positions for 18 single pole ½” (13mm) wide DIN rail AC or DC breakers.
