Introduction

Welcome to OutBack Power Technologies

Thank you for purchasing a GS Load Center (GSLC) from OutBack Power Technologies. The GSLC is
part of an OutBack Grid/Hybrid™ system. It is a balance-of-systems enclosure intended to work with
Radian Series (GS) inverter/chargers, FLEXmax Charge Controllers, and an OutBack HUB
Communications Manager.

It is designed in the following configurations:

GSLC – GS Load Center for Radian Series. Recommended for custom-built systems. Recommended for use

with multiple Radian inverters (one GSLC per inverter). Can be used with other inverter models. The term
“GSLC” is also used to refer generically to the product line.

GSLC175-120/240 – GS Load Center for AC Applications (split-phase). Factory-prepared with dual 175 Adc

inverter circuit breakers, dual AC inputs, and 120/240 Vac maintenance bypass assembly. Recommended for
systems which have a single Radian inverter and an AC source, but can be customized in other ways.

GSLC175-230 – GS Load Center for AC Applications (single-phase). Factory-prepared with dual 175 Adc

inverter circuit breakers, dual AC inputs, and 230 Vac maintenance bypass assembly. Recommended for
systems which have a single Radian inverter and an AC source, but can be customized in other ways.

GSLC175-PV-120/240 – GS Load Center for PV and AC Applications (split-phase). Factory-prepared with

dual 175 Adc inverter circuit breakers, dual AC inputs, 120/240 Vac maintenance bypass assembly, PV GFDI,
and two PV array inputs, FLEXnet DC battery monitor and three shunts. Intended as a “plug-and-play”
solution for systems with a single Radian inverter, two FLEXmax charge controllers, and battery monitoring.

GSLC175-PV-230 – GS Load Center for PV and AC Applications (single-phase). Factory-prepared with dual

175 Adc inverter circuit breakers, dual AC inputs, 230 Vac maintenance bypass assembly, PV GFDI, two PV
array inputs, FLEXnet DC battery monitor, and three shunts. Intended as a “plug-and-play” solution for
systems with a single Radian inverter, two FLEXmax charge controllers, and battery monitoring.

The enclosure provides mounting holes for the HUB Communications
Manager and for up to two FLEXmax charge controller mounting brackets.

NOTE: OutBack FLEXmax Extreme charge controllers are mounted beside
the inverter or the GSLC. The FLEXmax Extreme does not require
additional mounting brackets. See the Radian Series Installation Manual for
more information.

The removable front cover
allows for opening from
either side of the enclosure.
