Description
Meeting the demands of larger homes, this bundle pairs the Sol-Ark Limitless 18K hybrid inverter with two UZ Energy IG-16K-U outdoor LiFePO4 batteries. You get 18kW of continuous output, 28.8kW of usable solar input, and 32kWh of storage for extended backup.
Key Features
- 18kW Hybrid Inverter: Delivers 18kW of continuous power at 120/240 V, with 36kW of surge power for 10 seconds.
- 32kWh of Outdoor Storage: Two 16kWh LiFePO4 batteries rated IP65, with tier-one LFP cells and more than 8,000 cycles.
- High Solar Capacity: 3 MPPTs with 2 strings each handle up to 28.8kW of usable PV power, with up to 32.4kW STC rated PV input.
- Seamless Backup: 200A grid passthrough and a 5 ms transfer time keep loads running through outages, with a generator port rated up to 28.8kW.
- Built-In Battery Safety: Each battery includes a fire extinguisher, heating film, decompression valve, and an advanced BMS with automatic parallel configuration.
The inverter’s integrated protection includes arc fault detection, rapid shutdown, and a PV disconnect. Its IP65 and NEMA 3R enclosure suits indoor or outdoor mounting, and it reaches 97.6% maximum efficiency.
The batteries charge down to 14 °F, and mount on the floor or wall. They support CAN, RS485, and Wi-Fi communication, and up to 64 units can be paralleled.
Both components carry a 10-year warranty. Up to 12 inverters can be paralleled for larger systems, giving you room to scale as your energy needs grow.
