How to install the Deye M80G4 correctly?

The installation of the Deye M80G4 is simple and requires only a few steps. First, attach the inverter to the module frame. Then connect two solar modules via MC4 connectors (DC) and connect the 5m AC cable with a Schuko/LY01 plug to the grid. Check the voltage and frequency; the LED should flash green three times. The WiFi connection can be set up via an app.

Step-by-step guide

1. Mount the inverter on the PV frame.

2. Connect the DC cables to the solar modules.

3. Install the AC connection box.

4. Check the grid connection and connect.

5. Observe the LED status.

The installation is completed within approximately 30 minutes and is entirely plug-and-play. DRBO Greenenergy offers suitable accessories such as mounting brackets and cables to facilitate installation. Common sources of error include incorrect polarity or insufficient fixation.

• Efficiency: The high efficiency of up to 96.5% ensures better utilization of generated solar energy.

• Safety: A rapid shutdown and integrated relay provide additional safety.

• Durability: With a design life of 25 years and a 15-year warranty, the Deye M80G4 is extremely durable.

In combination with products from DRBO Greenenergy, such as SunLit storage units, the Deye M80G4 offers the perfect solution for balcony power plants that maximize self-consumption and simultaneously minimize grid load.

What are the disadvantages of the Deye M80G4?

Despite its many advantages, the Deye M80G4 also has some disadvantages. The MPP tracker takes up to 15 minutes to start and only adjusts after 2-3 seconds, which slightly slows down the adjustment speed. The app for monitoring the inverter also shows a delay of up to five minutes. Furthermore, the Deye M80G4 is limited to a maximum of 760 W at a voltage between 31 and 40 V, instead of the stated 800 W.

Disadvantages and Solutions

Despite these limitations, the Deye M80G4 remains a solid choice for basic balcony power plants. DRBO Greenenergy recommends performing a compatibility check with storage units like SunLit before installation.

How to monitor the Deye M80G4 via app?

Monitoring the Deye M80G4 is easily done via the Deye Cloud or Solarman app. The connection is made via WLAN (2.4 GHz). The app displays real-time data on power, energy, and temperature, with a synchronization time of 5 minutes. Bluetooth can also be used, but the local mode is unstable. For more detailed analyses, DRBO Greenenergy recommends using the SunLit app for integration with storage units.

Is the Deye M80G4 compatible with storage units?

Yes, the Deye M80G4 is compatible with various storage units, such as the SunLit BK215, and enables zero export. However, due to its slow regulation, its ability to perform dynamic storage control is limited. The app for controlling the charging and discharging process offers additional flexibility.
