Performance detail
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Recommended breaker | 17 A |
| Overload (off-grid BAT+PV) | 102–125% load ongoing; 10 s at 125–250% |
| Overload (off-grid BAT) | 30 s at 150–170 A; 10 s at 170–200 A; 0.5 s above 200 A |
| Overload (bypass, 25 °C) | 1 min at 17–19 A; 10 s at 19–21 A; 0.2 s above 21 A |
| Transfer time | 10 ms typical (UPS mode) / 20 ms typical (appliance mode) |
| Efficiency, grid mode | >99.5% at 2 kVA full resistive load |
| Efficiency, battery mode | 91% maximum |
| Standby power | <35 W |
The 10 ms transfer time in UPS mode is worth highlighting — fast enough for desktop computers and office equipment to ride through a mains failure without resetting.
Features
- Battery-free operation — runs on PV and grid with no battery connected.
- IP54 enclosure — sealed against dust and water spray, suitable for outdoor installation.
- Anti-reverse-flow hybrid operation — prevents current feeding back into the grid in mixed mode.
- Online monitoring — phone app data monitoring.
- Pure sine wave output.
- CAN / RS485 for BMS — connects to lithium battery management systems.
Where this model fits
The combination of IP54 and battery-free operation makes this the practical choice for outdoor or semi-exposed installations where a battery may be added later: a garden room, an outdoor cabinet, a small workshop with an external power point, a shed used as an office.
At 2000 W it carries a modest load — lights, a fridge, power tools, a small pump. For loads that will grow past 3 kW, move up to a 24 V or 48 V model; the 12 V system becomes cable-heavy above that point.
