Sol-Ark 15K : 15KW Full-Featured Hybrid Inverter System

Description This is the Sol-Ark 15K. A full-featured 15KW hybrid inverter system that makes residential solar, either grid-tied or off-grid, elegant, and easily integrated with your home electrical system. If you want a proven, reliable, all-in-one pre-wired system that includes inverter, charge controller, display with remote monitoring, auto generator start, as well as load center with breakers, rapid shutdown, and WiFi capabilities, then you want a Sol-Ark. The Sol-Ark 15K edition includes a big 200A grid interface which means you can place this between your meter and your service panel in order to back-up your entire house. Sol-Ark Pre-Wired Inverter Systems simultaneously manage power to/from Solar, Battery, Grid, Loads, and Generator.  The Sol-Ark inverter is simple to install and can be used in Grid-tied, Off-Grid, or Battery Backup solar applications.  It is expandable, and can grow as your power needs grow.  On grid PV to AC efficiency is 96% – among the top in the industry – means less solar is needed. Sol-Ark 15K Applications Grid-Tied Mode – Sell power back to the Utility to reduce your electric bill* Meter Zero Mode – Zero your electric bill without adding an additional smart meter Time-Of-Use Mode – Use solar and batteries to minimize grid power usage when it’s most expensive Smart Load Mode – Use a programmable output for high-power off grid loads or grid Time-of-use loads – to run only when there is optimum solar – use excess PV power when batteries are full Off Grid applications – battery agnostic AC Coupling – retrofits to existing grid tie systems Battery backup applications EMP applications (**offered with 8K and 12K EMP Hardened Inverters only- includes EMP suppressors for appliances and solar panels.  Not available on the 5K.)  Also, lithium battery technology is NOT recommended, but lead-acid batteries are fine.  The electronics in the lithium BMS cannot be guaranteed to survive EMP, whereas lead-acid is chemical, thus will survive. . *NOTE:  For Net Metering applications, if you have a 200A or greater service, you will need to buy a 200A Current Transformer separately (item code SOLARK200ACT).  The inverters come with 100A CTs that are appropriate for 2/0 wire.  The 200A CTs support 4/0 wire. Sol-Ark 15K Features Grid-Interactive or Off-Grid capability in the same package – can be used with or without energy storage – add batteries down the line  (The unit can be used in grid-tied applications without batteries, but if there is an outage, and there are no batteries, the inverter shuts down per NEC). Easy and fast to install – no external components (ie. fuses, breakers, combiner box) – all integrated in one unit Indoor/Outdoor installations Lightweight – under 80 lbs Color touch screen Works with the widest variety of 48V battery chemistries – from lead acid to lithium Backup power (even use the Grid as backup!) and support for time-of-use optimization Completely pre-wired system – Sol-Ark inverter and charge controller included Wifi integrated for easy monitoring of system performance Integrated DC Disconnect, Auto Gen Start, Critical Loads panel Highly efficient – both on-grid and off-grid Generator support Field-upgradeable software with remote support Fully NEC compliant (N. America) with rapid shutdown .
