November 25, 20214 yr Hi Guys, I have noticed that the radiator temperature displayed by Solar Assistant seems way out compared to the values that I get from the Solarman Smart app and my node-red modbus readings. Any one else noticed?
November 25, 20214 yr That is interesting. However, I have just done a check on my inverter and I have the following readings: DC-T = 54.3 and AC-T = 44.4 At the same time, the Solar Assistant inverter temperature reading is 54.3. So it appears that SA is reading the DC-T value. MdF
November 25, 20214 yr Author Interesting. So where inside is it measuring the DC-T, Because mine is currently sitting at 70,7 degrees. Should I be worried that something is frying? GR.
November 25, 20214 yr 70.7 degrees seems rather high 🤔. Are the fans not kicking in to cool the unit down?
November 25, 20214 yr Author OK. I need to do some investigation. Seems like I had an error in a function node reading the DC temperature and it is now giving a correct reading. Now 64,2 degrees and AC (or radiator) at 44 degrees. The 70 degrees must have been just before the fans kicked in. The inverter is in the garage so cannot hear when fans come on.😜
October 4, 20223 yr Sorry for adding to this old post, but the only one I can find. I feel my temps are dangerously high or not? According to the manual, the normal operating temperature is 60 degrees.
October 4, 20223 yr Author Apparently the 5kW Sunsynk is passively cooled. I found mine was inclined to run hot so I have "mounted" a AC panel fan on top of the inverter to suck air up through the heatsink. Using a sonoff and Home Assistant to control the fan. Switches on when to temperature goes above 60 degrees.

I have been searching for it, but can't find it If you click on parameter you can select the DC and AC temps In the app there is a Details tab if you are on the inverter window I believe just swipe left to the end of the tabs. Hope this helps if you haven't found it yet.
