The Growatt SPM 3000~6000TL-HU is a family of single-phase hybrid (energy-storage) solar inverters; the SPM 6000TL-HU is the 6 kW model at the top of the range. It integrates dual-MPPT solar input, battery charging/discharging and grid-interactive backup in one transformerless, IP65-rated unit, and supports DC-coupled, AC-coupled and AC-retrofit installations. With a 98.1% peak efficiency, built-in UPS function and the ability to parallel up to six units, it is aimed at residential and small-commercial solar self-consumption and backup power.
Key features
- Integrated UPS function with a switchover time under 10 ms to keep critical loads powered through grid outages.
- Two independent MPP trackers (150-550 V range, up to 1.5 DC/AC ratio) for flexible PV array design.
- Battery charge/discharge current up to 140 A, compatible with lithium or lead-acid batteries (40-60 V).
- Supports DC-coupled, AC-coupled and AC-retrofit systems and can charge from a diesel generator.
- Up to six units in parallel and can form a 400 V three-phase system.
- Type II surge protection on both DC and AC sides, natural cooling and an IP65 outdoor-rated enclosure.
