All-in-One Inverter
An All-in-one inverter combines the functions of an inverter, charger and grid-tie into one device. This is ideal for homes and buildings that want to use both renewable energy and traditional electricity sources.
It can store solar energy and provide backup power to appliances. It also has a grid-tie function that can sell excess energy back to the utility grid.
EG4 6000XP
The EG4 6000XP is a cutting-edge 48V split-phase off-grid inverter and charger that revolutionizes your energy needs. It is capable of utilizing 8kW of PV power and efficiently outputting 6kW while simultaneously charging your battery bank. It can parallel up to 16 units to achieve 96kW of output power and controls multiple stations and devices seamlessly through the new EG4 monitoring software. It also features built-in breakers and disconnects that enhance cost-efficiency and bolster safety measures.
Unlike other inverters, the 6000XP’s pass-through mode supports 240-volt loads without the need for a separate pair of inverters or a combiner box. It also has a lower idle consumption than other inverters, with under 50 watts. Moreover, the inverter’s split phase output allows you to run 240 volt loads at full power without any interference.
This inverter also supports Time of Use settings, which allow you to power loads during peak demand times using solar/battery and grid. It has a surge capacity of 12,000 watts for 240 volts, which is enough to power most home appliances. It can even run the most demanding loads, such as electric dryers. The 6000XP can also be powered by Grid or PV in an off-grid configuration, making it a versatile choice for power backup and load shifting. It can also participate in your system’s Rapid Shutdown architecture by providing ports for an external Rapid Shutdown Initiator and a 12V auxiliary power supply for the Rapid Shutdown transmitter.
EG4 8K
This EG4 inverter is the perfect solution for residential energy storage and backup power systems. It features a built-in MPPT solar charger, battery management system (BMS), and grid-tied interface. It can be connected to up to 12,000 watts of PV panels and offers uninterrupted power support in a single package. It also comes with a comprehensive LCD display that offers user configurable and easy-access button operation including battery charging current, AC/Solar charger priority, and acceptable input voltage based on different applications. Backed by a 5 year product warranty with EG4 batteries in closed loop and 3 years standalone use.
This innovative hybrid inverter seamlessly integrates grid-tied and off-grid functionality, eliminating the need for charge controllers or transformers. It also features a comprehensive list of battery solar panel certifications that help it meet typical electrical regulations. It is the culmination of countless hours of research and development and provides uncompromising utility to new and existing solar power systems.
It has a built-in MPPT solar charger that maximizes the power output of your PV array. It also has a battery management system that helps you maximize your solar energy savings. The EG4 8K is an easy-to-install, high performing, 12,000 watt, 240VAC continuous power system that can be used as either a grid-tied or stand-alone power source. It is an ideal choice for homes, light commercial, and small off-grid projects.
Sol-Ark 15kW
Sol-Ark inverters are easy to install and operate. Their user-friendly interface, transformerless architecture, and all-in-one hybrid design make them a popular choice for DIY off-grid solar systems. The company’s engineering team in Plano, Texas also provides direct phone and email support 7 days a week. This is a significant advantage over other inverter manufacturers, which often employ offshore call centers and don’t provide the same level of support that American customers appreciate.
The Sol-Ark 15kW is a pre-wired hybrid inverter system that includes an inverter, charge controllers, and a display with remote monitoring. It is designed to manage power to and from solar, grid, battery, and loads. It has a 200A transfer switch and three onboard MPPTs, which can handle up to 15,000W of PV and AC load. It also supports multiple modes, including peak shaving and grid sell.
The Sol-Ark 15K features a powerful, efficient MPPT technology that maximizes the power output from the panels. It also comes with a backup feature that will allow the system to run on a battery bank during an outage. Its pre-wired design reduces installation time, and it can be connected to either the GEN or LOAD breaker. Connecting it to the LOAD breaker is recommended, as it can handle a higher startup current than the 50A GEN terminal. It can also be hardened against EMP.
Sol-Ark 24V
The Sol-Ark is a hybrid inverter that works with solar and batteries. It can be used in grid-tied or off-grid applications, and it supports many different functions. This includes parallel stacking, grid sell, meter zero, time of use, AC coupling, and peak shaving. It also has a built-in transfer switch that can switch between grid-tied and off-grid mode in 4ms, making it an excellent Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).
All Sol-Ark inverters have DC coupled PV inputs and are battery agnostic, meaning they work with any 48V lead or lithium batteries. They also have two (three for the Sol-Ark 15K) MPPT inputs, allowing long PV strings. They have a built-in rapid shutdown, and come with arc fault and ground fault protection. In addition, all of them are EMP hardened.
Sol-Ark inverters are transformerless, which means that they don’t need heavy, expensive transformers. This makes them lighter and more compact, which allows all-in-one-ess you to install them in a smaller space. However, the main drawback of transformerless inverters is that they cannot start large 120V induction motors like window air conditioners or power tools. Sol-Ark has overcome this limitation by adding an on-grid AC coupling feature that will allow you to connect your battery bank to critical loads panels, running only the most important appliances when the grid goes down.
