Description
Having micro solar system can help address shading issue or limited solar panel locations, this kit consists of 8 panels (425W) and two inverters which are mounted on or near the array.
Each HMS1600-4T has four MPPT inputs allowing you to have four independent panels that are optimal. You may want this system for Bi facial solar panels, and east west configurations as well as your standard array.
We put 425w panels with this kit as it puts it slightly over at peak production. The panel size is 177 x 112cm.
You can ask to make up the difference as the maximum solar input is 2.1kw (4.2kw) if you want larger panels. ( see other solar panels listed)
As usual we are NOT including mounting systems as they vary too much to “kit them”.
This system is a AC system, meaning that you have cable runs with AC not long DC as you would with a string inverter. It is recommended to have short cables between the panel and inverter, however they could be short cables to allow you to better place your panels. The inverter should not be placed in direct sunlight as it is passively cooled.
Search the web for OpenDTU for hacking the communications for integrations, we may offer our own in the near future.
In my personal opinion…..
If you are buying this kit, you are close to buying a hybrid system with a battery.
Due to the available power, you would off set the arrays to give you power over the day to best benefit your usage, you can read our solar panel angle information to work out how you can maximise your solar.
Consider carefully this option as it is grid tied. the return is not as good as with a system with a battery.
