Detailed Description

Built-in DC and AC disconnects eliminate the need for external breakers in some cases, decreasing total system costs. Fronius IG inverters come standard with an integrated LCD that displays and records over 20 parameters related to the inverter and system operation. Fronius inverters have 3 expansion slots that allow you to add features, such as external sensors and remote displays. You can use a personal computer to update the inverter with the latest software upgrades.

The larger inverters (over 3kw) are built with the same power stages as the smaller ones, but use 2 of them. When these inverters see less than 1/2 array capacity, one stage turns off, giving the inverter higher efficiency during periods of low insulation. UL listed. 7-year warranty.
