Why Choose the Deye 12kW Hybrid Solar Inverter?

12kW Single-Phase Power Output

With a rated AC output of 12,000W, this inverter is suitable for larger residential properties, guest houses, farms, offices and small commercial installations. It provides sufficient capacity for multiple electrical loads when the system is correctly designed.

Three Independent MPPT Trackers

The three MPPT trackers allow solar panels to be arranged across different roof orientations or installation areas. This is particularly useful when panels cannot all face the same direction, helping the system make better use of available sunlight.

Up to 24kW Solar PV Array Capacity

The inverter supports a maximum PV array capacity of 24kW, allowing a suitably designed solar installation to generate more energy during daylight hours. Correct panel string configuration must comply with the inverter's voltage and current limits.

48V Battery Storage Compatibility

The Deye SUN-12K-SG02 LP1-EU-AM3 supports compatible low-voltage battery systems operating between 40V and 60V. It offers maximum battery charging and discharging currents of 250A, making it suitable for substantial battery storage installations.

Reliable Backup During Load Shedding

When connected to a compatible battery bank, the inverter can supply designated backup circuits when Eskom electricity is interrupted. Keep essential appliances, refrigeration, security systems, lighting and office equipment operational, subject to available battery capacity and connected loads.

Eskom and Generator Integration

The hybrid system intelligently manages solar generation, battery charging, grid electricity and generator input. Configurable charging schedules also allow you to manage battery usage according to your household or business requirements.

Parallel Expansion Capability

For installations requiring additional capacity, the Deye inverter supports parallel operation of up to 16 units in compatible configurations, offering flexibility for larger solar projects.
