Growatt brought storage-ready inverters to SPI 2019

Growatt has been actively exploring the solar market in the Americas this year. At Solar Power International 2019, Growatt showcased its new XH series of storage-ready inverters.

Future-proof PV solution

MIN 2500-6000TL-XH has a storage-ready feature. The inverter works with a low-voltage battery and has a battery interface that can be easily extended later to a storage system without retrofit cost. It is perfect for home owners who are looking to convert their rooftop PV systems into solar storage systems in the future.

Up-to-date design

Considered as the most up-to-date solution for residential solar plants in the industry, TL-XH inverter has modern and compact design and is very attractive to end users at first glance. TL-XH adopts integrated top cover case design and there’re no screws on the front cover. The design has fewer gaps and provides better protection against water and dust. Aerospace grade materials are used for the TL-XH, making the inverter light, durable and flame-retardant. It is around 10.8kg, 35% lighter when compared with other old-generation inverters.

To achieve better HMI experience, it is designed with OLED display and a touch button. OLED display uses premium materials and consumes less power. Its touch button is more durable and can last over three million clicks.

Safe and reliable with online monitoring

The inverter has invisible cable routing and uses patented inductance technology to optimize heat dissipation for the inverter. Therefore, the inverter can work under harsh conditions, such as salty air, humidity and high and low temperatures.

TL-XH has great protection with Type II SPD on DC side, connection protection and optional AFCI. It has two MPP trackers and 1.4 DC/AC ratio. Its string current can reach 12.5A and is compatible with bifacial modules. For system monitoring and remote O&M, customers have multiple options such as WIFI-X, GPRS-X, 4G-X, RF or RS485. With the datalogger installed, customers can have access to Growatt Online Smart Service platform for reporting issues and troubleshooting.

    “The inverter has invisible cable routing and uses patented inductance technology to optimize heat dissipation for the inverter. Therefore, the inverter can work under harsh conditions, such as salty air, humidity and high and low temperatures.”

    I’m surprised these units only have a 5 year warranty with a 10 year warranty with “buy” up. It seems like the design gets rid of one of the Achilles heels of solar inverters, the cooling fan. Most problems with solar PV inverters start with cooling fan failures and overtemperature conditions that destroy the switching transistors in the unit. For right now, SolarEdge has them beat with 12 years and a 20 to 25 year warranty buy up.
