Important
Please note that this inverter does not include a data logger, CT, meter or export power manager. The meter "SOL-METER-3PH-CT3" is needed for export power control of one inverter, for more than one inverter use the EPM3-5G-PLUS. The meter requires a data logging stick but EPM3-5G-PLUS has a built in data logger. These items are sold separately.8 kW at a glance
A mid-size three-phase inverter for larger houses, farm buildings and workshops. Up to 12 kW of panels, still a G98 connection.
String design
There are two independent MPPTs, 16 A and one string each, with a 20 A short-circuit rating. Tracking covers 160–1,000 V and the input limit is 1,100 V. Two roof faces or ground rows can each have their own string. Twenty-four 500 W panels, twelve per tracker, fill the 12 kW recommendation.
Built in vs separate
- DC switch in the inverter
- Surge protection (Type II) for DC and AC
- Integrated AFCI, activation required
- Export control: a meter for one inverter
- Data logger (not supplied)
Grid connection
Rated output of 11.5 A per phase keeps it under the 16 A per-phase limit (11.04 kW over three phases). The G98 certificate is in the Documents tab.
