Growatt hybrid inverter SPH7000TL3 BH 3-phase

The Growatt hybrid inverter SPH7000TL3 BH 3-phase allows you to take an important step towards the future. The power generated by the solar panels but not consumed at the time it is generated (direct own consumption) can be fed back into the grid, but you could also store it in a home battery! This way, we can use energy generated on a sunny day in the evening hours. This hybrid inverter from Growatt is capable of connecting the grid, the solar panels and the battery. The beauty of this hybrid inverter system is that the inverter also works fine without a battery. So you can initially only connect it to the grid, to easily add a Growatt ARK High voltage home battery in the foreseeable future.

Growatt hybrid inverter SPH7000TL3 BH 3-phase are full-fledged hybrid inverters. They have a UPS function, which stands for Uninterrupted Power Supply. This means that the inverter can switch almost seamlessly between any emergency power supply, and standard AC connection. This means that in most cases, a server, for example, will simply stay on during a power failure, provided the battery is sufficiently charged to power the emergency power circuit. Note: If the emergency power supply is used, then according to the NEN it is mandatory that you are also physically completely disconnected from the grid, so that you could not accidentally feed power back to the grid if work is being done on the cables in the street. For this, use an Automatic Transfer Switch 3-phase.

For the SPH inverter to work properly with a battery, the Growatt smart meter 3-phase must be connected. This comes standard in the box of the inverter. You install it at the very beginning of the meter box so that it can measure all incoming and outgoing energy! As a result, the inverter knows when power is about to be fed back into the grid and can use the settings to determine whether the battery needs to be charged or discharged.

Different priorities can be indicated in the Growatt SPH 3-phase hybrid inverters. Switching between these modes can be based on preset time schedules. So it is not an entirely dynamic system based on power prices.

1. Load first: This mode ensures that produced solar power is sent to consumers in the home first. The excess power generated is used to charge the battery. When the battery is full, the remainder is fed back into the grid.
2. Battery first: With the solar power generated, the battery is charged first. If this is successful, the rest can be fed to the consumers in the house. If any power is left over, it is fed back into the grid.
3. Grid first: This setting ensures that all the power generated is fed directly into the grid.

The Growatt hybrid inverter SPH7000TL3 BH-UP 3-phase has no mechanical fan or transformer so they are very quiet. In addition, the inverter has 2 MPP Trackers. This means that 2 series-connected ‘strings’ can be connected, which do not affect ps other in case of shadowing, for example. Ideal if, for instance, the lower half of the roof gets sun later than the upper half, or if, for instance, only one half of the roof is shaded. You can connect up to a maximum of 6000 watt peak on this inverter! The moments you generate more than 7000 watts, the surplus is capped.

The battery you may connect to this inverter has a maximum DC output of 7000 watts, has a voltage range of 100 to 550 volts and a maximum continuous input current of 25 amps.

It can be easily monitored using Growatt ShineWiFi-X or a Growatt Shine Link-X. Or use a Growatt shine master (4G) if you want multiple SPH 1-phase hybrid inverters to work together.

Growatt offers a 10-year manufacturer’s warranty on its battery-operated inverters.
