2 Safety
2.1 Intended use
The sonnenBackup-Box is an emergency power unit designed to supplement the
sonnenBatterie eco 8.0, hybrid 8.1 or pro 2.0. The Backup-Box - in conjunction with the ap-
propriate storage system of the sonnen GmbH - serves to supply power in the event of a
power failure. Any other use is considered improper use.
Improper use poses a risk of death or injury to the user or third parties as well as damage to
the product and other items of value. The following points must therefore be observed in
order to comply with the intended use of the product:
• Only operate the Backup-Box together with the right storage system.
• The Backup-Box must be installed by a licensed electrician.
• The Backup-Box must only be connected to the storage system as described here.
• Isolated operation is not possible with the Backup-Box. A generator (e.g. a PV system)
must never be connected after the output of the Backup-Box.
• Intended use includes observing this document as well as all accompanying product doc-
umentation of the appropriate storage system.
• The Backup-Box must only be used at suitable installation location.
• The transport and storage conditions must be observed.
Especially the following uses are not permissible:
• Operation in flammable environments or areas at risk of explosion.
• Operation in locations at risk of flooding.
• Operation outdoors.
Failure to comply with the conditions of the warranty and the information spe-
cified in this document invalidates any warranty claims.
2.2 Requirements for the electrician
Improper installation can result in personal injury and/or damage to components. For this
reason, the Backup-Box must only be installed and commissioned by licensed electricians.
Licensed electricians must meet the following criteria:
• The electrician must be a person with a technical knowledge or sufficient experience to
enable him/her to avoid dangers which electricity may create.
• The electrician must has successfully completed the sonnen Australia installer training
and have valid installer accreditation at the time of installation.
2.3 Operating the product
Incorrect operation can lead to injury to yourself or others and cause damage to property.
• The Backup-Box must only be operated as described in the product documentation.
• This device can be used by children from the age of eight (8) years old and individuals
with impaired physical, sensory or mental capabilities or individuals with limited know-
ledge and/or experience of working with the device, as long as they are supervised or
2 | Safety
6 / 20 Operating instructions sonnenBackup-Box
have been trained to safely use the device and understand the resulting risks of doing so.
Children must not play with the device. Cleaning and user maintenance must not be car-
ried out by children without supervision.
2.4 Product modifications or changes to the product environment
• The Backup-Box must only be used in its original state without any user modifications
and only when in perfect working order.
• Safety devices must never be overridden, blocked or tampered with.
• The interfaces of the Backup-Box and the storage system must be wired in accordance
with the product documentation.
• All repairs on the Backup-Box must be performed by authorised service technicians
only.
2.5 Voltage inside the Backup-Box
5 min
The Backup-Box contains live electrical parts, which poses a risk of electrical shock. The
Backup-Box and storage system inverter also contain capacitors which carry voltage even
after the storage system is switched off.
Therefore:
Do not open the Backup-Box.

4 Operation
NOTICE Using three-phase consumers in backup operation
Damage to components/devices!
Do not switch on any three-phase (polyphase, high-voltage) electrical con-
sumers during backup operation. These consumers may be damaged be-
cause the Backup-Box only supplies electricity on one phase.
4.1 Function
A storage system with Backup-Box automatically switches from grid to backup operation
(and vice versa). The two operating modes are described in the following.

In grid operation the consumers in the building (4 - 6) are connected to the public elec-
trical mains. All consumers in the house are supplied with electrical power. The storage sys-
tem controls - as described in the product documentation of the storage system - the en-
ergy flows in the building.

The Backup-Box (3) automatically detects a grid outage. As soon as the voltage of the
electrical mains drops to approx. 180V, the connection to the public electrical mains (9)
and to the PV system (7) is disconnected.
Backup power is generated after approx. 3 seconds. In this case, the direct current of the
battery of the storage system (8) is converted into alternating current using the inverter of
the Backup-Box (2). The consumers connected to the phase L1 in the house (4) are thereby
supplied with electrical power. Consumers connected to the phase L2 (5) or L3 (6) will not
be supplied with electrical power.
The sonnen Eclipse (light ring) of the storage system switches off as soon as the backup
operation starts. The sonnen Eclipse of the Backup-Box illuminates white during backup
operation.
The storage system with Backup-Box switches from backup to grid operation as soon as
the public electrical mains (9) start to deliver electrical power again.
Automatic stop of the backup operation
The storage system with Backup-Box generates electrical power until a minimum state of
charge of the battery is reached. Thereafter, no further discharge is allowed.
