The EG4 18kPV hybrid inverter/charger is a powerful, adaptable solution for solar energy users who need flexibility, efficiency, and resilience in their energy systems. Designed to harness solar power, charge batteries, and provide reliable backup power during outages, the EG4 18kPV is ideal for homes and businesses seeking energy independence or cost-effective grid integration.
Flexible Operation and Cost Savings
This all-in-one hybrid inverter is versatile in its operation modes, offering three key options:
- Off-grid: Ideal for locations where grid access is unreliable or unavailable.
- Grid assist: For users looking for independence but want to retain the grid as a backup when needed.
- Grid-tied: Sell excess power back to the grid, maximizing return on investment.
High Capacity and Scalability
With an impressive capability of 18kW of PV input and 12kW output, the EG4 18kPV provides robust energy handling, allowing users to optimize their solar production. Its scalability is a major advantage—up to 10 units can be paralleled, making it suitable for larger systems that need additional power capacity.
High Voltage Input
The EG4 18kPV’s 600V DC input allows for more efficient cable management, reducing the need for larger cables and external combiner boxes. With three MPPTs (Maximum Power Point Trackers) and a recommended PV input of 21kW, this inverter ensures optimal energy conversion from your solar array.
Split-Phase Output for Maximum Flexibility
With high-frequency, split-phase output, the EG4 18kPV delivers both 120/240V in a single-unit and 120/208V service operation, catering to a wide range of energy needs and installation setups.
Easy Installation and Safety Features
Installation of the EG4 18kPV is user-friendly and designed with safety in mind. Meeting strict safety standards, it ensures peace of mind for users. Additionally, the inverter is EMP-hardened, meaning it can withstand electromagnetic pulses (EMPs), making it more resilient in the face of disruptive surges—an increasingly important feature in today’s energy landscape.
Battery Compatibility and Communications
The EG4 18kPV is designed for seamless closed-loop communication with EG4’s 48V batteries and other battery brands. This ensures efficient battery management and optimal energy usage.
Monitoring and Remote Access
For enhanced control and flexibility, the EG4 18kPV includes a mountable Wi-Fi device that connects the inverter to EG4’s new monitoring platform. Users can monitor system performance, receive updates, and make adjustments via the EG4 app or EG4 Monitor system, ensuring that they always have access to the latest data and remote control features.
Achieve Energy Independence with the EG4 18kPV
Whether you’re aiming for complete energy independence, grid assistance, or maximizing solar savings, the EG4 18kPV hybrid inverter offers a powerful, flexible solution. With its impressive capacity, ease of installation, remote monitoring, and resilience against EMP surges, it’s a smart investment for anyone looking to take control of their energy future.
