Hi,

I have 2 Trace/Xantrex SW4024 inverters that although are old are working just fine. I am replacing my bank of 20 year old Absolutyte IIP 24VDC batteries with 6 SimpliPhi 3.8 KW 24VDC batteries. Does anybody have the inverter set points for the SW4024 and these LiFePO4 batteries? I also will be installing the smart battery protect (x2) and the smart shunt.

Any help will be appreciated.

    Google, Simpliphi use with Schneider inverters, there is a pdf available with all the information needed, you may want to consider a Schneider battery monitor if Xanbus communication between is useful to you, hustle a thought.

    Thanks for the response mcgivor. I do have the SimpliPhi Schneider doc for their new SW4024 inverters. I have the original Trace/Xantrex SW4024s installed in 2005. Was wanting to know if the setpoints for new SW4024s translate exactly to the older Trace/Xantrex SW4024s for LIFePO4 SimpliPhi batteries.

    Using the same values would make sense assuming it's possible, perhaps SimpliPhi could answer the question. The settings in the document were what I used as a guide when programming my newe style SW 2524  with a DIY LFP bank, FWIW.
