The SOFAR HYD-10K-LS1 / HYD-12K-LS1 is a single-phase hybrid (energy storage) inverter that combines a grid-tied solar inverter and a battery inverter in one unit. Available in 10 kW and 12 kW, it works with lithium-ion or lead-acid 48 V batteries. It switches to backup power in 4 ms when the grid fails, and it can start your generator automatically. You can run up to 6 units in parallel for larger homes and businesses.

Key features

• Seamless backup: 4 ms automatic switchover between grid and backup, with 200% overload for 10 seconds
• Runs heavy loads: backup (EPS) mode supports inductive loads such as air conditioners and refrigerators
• More solar: 2 MPPTs, wide 60–500 V MPPT range, up to 1.6 DC:AC ratio (20 kWp / 24 kWp of panels)
• Battery flexible: lithium-ion or lead-acid, 40–60 V, up to 210 A / 250 A charge and discharge current, CAN/RS485 BMS communication (works with SOFAR GTX5000S, SF-5KWH-L1 and SF-16KWH-L1 batteries)
• Generator ready: generator port with automatic start/stop, plus smart-load control
• Expandable: up to 6 inverters in parallel to build a microgrid
• Smart monitoring: LCD screen and SOFAR Cloud app (web, Android, iOS) via the included Wi-Fi datalogger
• Work modes: self-use, feed-in priority, peak shaving, time-of-use and passive (EMS)
• Tough: IP66, −30 °C to +60 °C, wall mounted
