Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Does this inverter need a transformer for 208V applications? No. The Sol-Ark 30K-3P-208V outputs native 120V/208V 3-Phase power, eliminating the need for external transformers commonly required by 480V inverters.

Q2: What kind of batteries does it work with? It is compatible with High Voltage (HV) Lithium-Ion batteries (nominal voltage ≥ 300V). It does not support standard 48V residential batteries.

Q3: How many units can I stack? The system allows for parallel stacking of up to 10 units, creating a massive system with 300kW of continuous power output.

Q4: Can I use this for a home? Yes. While designed for commercial use, it is also an excellent choice for large luxury homes that have 208V 3-phase service or require more power than standard residential inverters can provide.

Q5: Is it suitable for outdoor installation? Yes. The unit is housed in a robust NEMA 3R / IP65 rated enclosure, making it fully capable of withstanding outdoor elements.
