Until now, balcony inverters have mostly been simple microinverters with batteries integrated via MC4 connectors. Hybrid inverters should improve the situation.
Yihan Li, Sales Manager for AP Systems Austria and Germany, presents the manufacturer’s new hybrid inverter at Intersolar.
AP Systems has released a true balcony hybrid inverter. Yihan Li, sales manager for Austria and Germany at AP Systems, said that in most cases, microinverters are used in balcony electrical installations, and the batteries are connected via MC4 connectors.
EZHI, on the other hand, is a proven single-phase hybrid inverter. The system can absorb 1200 watts of electricity and release the same amount again, reducing power consumption to the network by up to 800 watts. Hybrid inverters save the difference in batteries. In standalone mode, EZHI can continuously supply 2400W of power to your home network. The time to switch to offline mode is said to be less than 10 milliseconds. According to AP Systems, the system uses gallium nitride semiconductors. Despite the lower power rating, efficiency is said to be as high as 96.2%. Gallium nitride semiconductors are still used only in low-power devices.
The inverter can be connected to modules with a maximum short circuit current of 25 amperes. DC input voltage is available up to 60V per input. A special feature is that alternating voltage can also be supplied to the input. For example, if you want to replace the battery, you can leave the old microinverter running and simply connect the AC output directly to the hybrid inverter.
The inverter is IP67 certified, making it ideal for outdoor use. The recommended operating temperature range is from minus 40°C to plus 65°C.
Internal applications can monitor energy flows and manage their own consumption. Other accessories can be connected via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. The manufacturer provides a 12-year warranty for the micro-hybrid inverter.
