The Felicity Solar IVGM8KLP1G1 is a high-capacity single-phase hybrid inverter designed to manage solar generation, battery storage and grid electricity as part of a complete energy system.
With an 8kW rated AC output and maximum apparent output of 8.8kVA, the inverter can support a wide range of household and light commercial loads. It is particularly suitable for installations where reliable backup power and increased solar self-consumption are important.
The inverter supports a 40–60V battery voltage range, making it compatible with suitable low-voltage lithium-ion and lead-acid battery systems. Battery charging and discharging can reach up to 190A, with up to 8kW of battery charging/discharging power.
Maximise Solar Generation with Dual MPPT
The IVGM8KLP1G1 features two independent MPPT trackers, allowing the solar array to be configured across separate PV strings for improved energy harvesting where roof orientations or panel configurations differ.
The inverter supports up to 12kW of recommended PV power, with a maximum PV voltage of 500V and an MPPT voltage range of 120–425V.
With maximum MPPT efficiency of 99.9% and overall maximum inverter efficiency of 97.6%, the system is designed to make efficient use of available solar energy.
Reliable Backup During Power Outages
For South African installations where load shedding and grid interruptions remain a concern, the inverter provides a dedicated backup output rated at 8kW.
The backup transfer time is approximately 10ms, helping connected loads transition quickly to battery/inverter power when grid supply is interrupted.
The system also incorporates multiple protection functions, including anti-islanding, over-current, overload, short-circuit, GFCI, AFCI and insulation monitoring.
Smart Monitoring via Wi-Fi
Built-in communication and monitoring capabilities allow users to monitor their solar system remotely. The inverter supports Wi-Fi/GPRS monitoring, while battery management communication is available through RS485 and CAN.
This makes it easier to keep track of system performance, solar production, battery operation and energy usage.
Expandable Solar Power System
The IVGM8KLP1G1 can be configured in parallel, with support for up to six compatible units, providing a pathway for system expansion as energy requirements grow.
Built for Demanding Installation Environments
An IP65-rated enclosure provides protection against dust and water ingress, making the inverter suitable for appropriately selected indoor or protected outdoor installation locations.
The operating temperature range is specified as -25°C to 60°C, with power derating above 45°C.
