What changes at 2.5 kW

2 inputsOn one MPPT
19 AInput current
3.8 kWRecommended PV
2.75 kVAMax AC output

This is the first Mini on the larger hardware. It has two string connections, 19 A instead of 14 A, and a 30 A short-circuit rating. The case weighs 7.7 kg.

Two strings, one tracker

Both inputs run into the same MPPT, so they are tracked as one. Two matching strings on the same roof face work well. The tracking window moves up to 80–500 V, generation starts at 90 V and the rated voltage is 330 V. For an east/west split, where each face needs its own tracker, look at the S6 2.5 kW dual tracker.

In the box

  • Integrated DC isolator (the -DC in the part code)
  • Export Power Manager built in
  • AFCI arc-fault protection, needs activating on commissioning
  • A CT, so the EPM can see the supply
  • A Wi-Fi or GPRS stick for monitoring (RS485 is standard)

Grid rules

Still G98 at 2.5 kW

10.9 A rated output at 230 V keeps it under the 16 A (3.68 kW) G98 limit. The G100 certificate for SOL-2.5-MINI-S6-DC is in the Documents tab with the G98 and G99 certificates.

Order with this inverter

  • 100 A export-limiting CT

    Listed for single-phase Solis S6 inverters. It is what lets the built-in EPM hold export to a set level.

  • Solis GPRS stick

    Mobile-network monitoring for any Solis inverter, so no router is needed on site. SIM not included.

  • Extend cover to 20 years

    The 15-year extension for the S6 Mini series, on top of the standard 5.

Installer notes

Can one string of panels run on it?

Yes. The second input is optional. One string just needs to clear the 90 V start-up and stay inside the 80–500 V window.

How much PV is sensible?

Solis recommends up to 3.8 kW, for example eight 475 W panels split into two strings of four.

Is export limiting possible without the EPM box?

Yes. The export manager is inside the inverter and only needs the CT.

What does a pallet hold?

24 units of the S6-GR1P2.5K-M. Packs of 5 and 10 are also available, and the table below lists what each works out at per unit.
