Deye MC-L430-2H2

Compatibility

Compatible with EpiSensor Edge over Modbus TCP, or through an EpiSensor ZEM on the AC feeder

The MC-L430-2H2 and 2H3 manuals list RS485, Modbus TCP and DIDO as the cabinet’s communication interfaces, and Deye’s brochure shows the MS-EMS connected to the storage cabinets over RS485, Modbus TCP and DIDO. Edge is a Modbus TCP client and reads the cabinet with the addresses, data types and units in the project point list from Deye. Edge also measures the cabinet through an EpiSensor ZEM with Rogowski coils on its 380/400 V AC connection: charge and discharge power and energy at the battery’s AC boundary.

MC-L430-2H2 (manual Issue 06, 2026-08-27) and MC-L430-2H3 (manual Issue 07, 2026-07-15) AC cabinets, with up to three MC-L430-BC-2 battery cabinets. Site check: obtain the Modbus TCP endpoint and point list for the installed cabinet and MS-EMS from Deye, and record the nameplate, firmware and battery cabinet count. Read only; dispatch stays with the MS-EMS or the site controller.

Interface

Documented measurements and integration boundaries for MC-L430-2H2.

• Deye does not publish the cabinet’s Modbus TCP point list in the manuals or brochure; the project point list from Deye supplies addresses, function codes, data types, scale factors, word order and power sign.
• From that list, start with identity, operating state, AC active power, state of charge and alarm words, and keep each PCS module, the battery cabinets, the MS-EMS and the site meter as separate sources with their own timestamps.
• Through an EpiSensor ZEM on the AC feeder, Edge records voltage, current and active power per phase and import and export energy at the cabinet’s AC connection.
• Fire alarm and system emergency fault dry contacts stay with the life-safety system. No charge, discharge, export-limit or grid-service command is in scope of this guide; any control needs the site owner’s and Deye’s agreement.

Setup

1. Record the installed system

   Record the AC cabinet nameplate (MC-L430-2H2 or MC-L430-2H3), the number of MC-L430-BC-2 battery cabinets, any MS-MPPT400-2 or STS cabinet, the MS-EMS and the firmware shown in Deye EMS. The brochure allows at most three battery cabinets without a PCS in parallel with one AC cabinet. It states up to 10 cabinets in parallel and the product page 8, so confirm the system limit with Deye for the design.

2. Ask Deye for the Modbus TCP point list

   The 2H2 manual Issue 06 and 2H3 manual Issue 07 list Modbus TCP in the technical specifications but do not publish the register table or name a third-party port. Ask Deye ESS for the endpoint (IP address, TCP port and unit identifier), the point list for the installed firmware and whether the cabinet or the MS-EMS serves it. Ask whether a second client may poll while the MS-EMS is running.

3. Configure the first reads

   In Edge, add a Modbus TCP device at the address Deye gives. From the point list, read identity, operating state, AC active power, state of charge and the alarm words first, with the function code, data type, scale, word order and sign the list states. Compare each value with Deye EMS or the Deye ESS app at the same time before adding more points. A timeout or exception is missing data, not zero.

4. Fit the ZEM on the AC feeder

   The two PCS modules each carry up to 166.7 A at 380 V (159.5 A at 400 V), so the cabinet feeder carries up to about 333 A per phase; 1000 A Rogowski coils suit it. A qualified electrician fits them on the three phases between the AC power distribution unit and the site switchboard and takes the ZEM voltage reference from the same circuit. Record which direction is import.

5. Compare during an existing schedule

   During a charge or discharge the MS-EMS already schedules, compare the ZEM active power with the cabinet power in Deye EMS over the same interval. Keep the site connection meter separate: it includes loads and PV. Send no new command for the check; dispatch stays with the MS-EMS or the site controller.

Common questions

How does the MC-L430-2H3 differ from the MC-L430-2H2?

Power, energy and DC ratings are the same. The 2H3 manual gives IP55 for the battery compartment and chiller control box, IP65 for the PCS, corrosion grade C4M with C5M optional and a noise level of 75 dBA or less at 1 m. The 2H2 manual gives IP54 and C4 or better.^2, 3

What PCS is inside the MC-L430-2H2?

Two SUN-100K-PCS01HP3 modules. Each is rated 100 kW and 110 kVA with a 630 to 1000 V battery voltage range.^2, 4

Can Edge charge or discharge the cabinet?

Not from this guide. It configures reads only. Charge, discharge, export limiting and backup behaviour stay with the MS-EMS or site controller, and any control needs the site owner’s and Deye’s agreement.^2, 5
