Solis 5kW 48V Hybrid Inverter S6-EH1P-5K-L-PLUS is a high-performance single-phase low-voltage hybrid inverter designed for residential and small commercial solar energy systems. It combines solar generation, battery storage, grid power, and backup functionality to provide a flexible and reliable energy-management solution.

With support for up to 160% PV oversizing, up to 21A PV input current, 200% overload for 10 seconds in off-grid mode, under 10ms on/off-grid switching, 40V–60V battery compatibility, and up to six units in parallel, the S6-EH1P-5K-L-PLUS is designed to accommodate both current and future solar-storage requirements.

The inverter also features a 7-inch industrial-grade touchscreen, IP66 protection, SolisCloud remote monitoring, smart load management, generator integration, and PV-only off-grid operation, making it a versatile choice for homes and businesses looking for reliable backup power and greater energy independence.

Powerful 5kW Hybrid Inverter

The Solis S6-EH1P-5K-L-PLUS provides up to 5kW of rated inverter power, making it suitable for a wide range of residential applications.

It can integrate solar panels, batteries, and grid electricity to intelligently manage household energy according to the system configuration and operating requirements.

It is particularly suitable for customers who want to build a modern solar-plus-storage system rather than relying solely on grid electricity.

Supports Up to 160% PV Oversizing

The inverter supports PV input up to 160% of its rated DC power.

This allows a larger solar array to be connected within the manufacturer’s specified limits, helping maximize solar energy production throughout the day.

PV oversizing can be particularly useful because solar panels do not always produce their maximum rated output due to weather, temperature, orientation, shading, and other environmental factors.

Up to 21A PV Input Current

The Solis S6-EH1P-5K-L-PLUS supports up to 21A PV input current, providing compatibility with newer, higher-current solar modules.

This makes the inverter suitable for modern solar installations using higher-power PV panels.

200% Overload for 10 Seconds

In off-grid mode, the inverter supports up to 200% overload for 10 seconds.

This feature is particularly useful for loads with high starting currents.

Examples include:

• Water pumps
• Air conditioners
• Electric motors
• Refrigeration equipment
• Other appliances with high startup demand

The ability to handle short-duration surge loads helps provide more reliable startup performance for demanding appliances.

Seamless On/Off-Grid Switching

The inverter supports on-grid and off-grid switching in under 10ms.

This rapid transition helps minimize interruption when the system switches between available power sources and backup operation, subject to the connected equipment and installation configuration.

It makes the inverter suitable for customers who require dependable backup power for important household and business loads.

Flexible 40V–60V Battery Compatibility

The Solis S6-EH1P-5K-L-PLUS supports batteries operating within the 40V–60V range.

This provides flexibility when selecting a compatible low-voltage battery-storage solution.

It can therefore be paired with suitable lithium battery systems according to the battery manufacturer’s specifications and the inverter’s configuration requirements.

Supports Multiple Battery Options

The wide battery-voltage compatibility allows customers greater flexibility when designing their solar energy-storage system.

Before purchasing a battery, compatibility should be confirmed based on:

• Battery voltage
• Maximum charging current
• Maximum discharge current
• Battery communication
• BMS compatibility
• Inverter firmware
• Manufacturer-approved battery list where applicable

Supports Existing PV Grid-Tied Systems

The inverter supports integration with existing PV grid-tied power connections for export control and off-grid applications.

This can make it useful when upgrading an existing solar installation to incorporate battery storage and backup functionality.

Up to 6 Units in Parallel

The Solis S6-EH1P-5K-L-PLUS supports up to six units in parallel.

This allows system capacity to be expanded as electricity requirements increase.

For larger residential or commercial applications, multiple compatible inverters can therefore be configured together according to Solis’ approved installation and parallel-operation requirements.

Smart Load Management

The inverter features smart load management, helping prioritize how available energy is distributed between loads and battery storage.

This can help extend backup duration by prioritizing critical appliances and reducing unnecessary battery consumption.

It is particularly useful when battery capacity is limited during extended power outages.

Customizable Battery Backup Level

The inverter allows users to configure the battery backup level, helping maintain a desired amount of stored energy for backup use.

This provides greater control over battery utilization and can help ensure that reserve energy remains available when needed.

PV-Only Off-Grid Operation

The S6-EH1P-5K-L-PLUS supports PV-only off-grid operation.

This provides an option for certain off-grid applications where customers want to use solar energy without necessarily installing a battery immediately.

This can potentially reduce initial system costs while providing a pathway for future battery integration.

SolisCloud Smart Monitoring

The inverter supports SolisCloud, providing remote monitoring and control capabilities.

Depending on the system configuration and available services, users can access information about their solar system and monitor its operation remotely.

The platform also provides features for system optimization and troubleshooting.

7-Inch Industrial Touchscreen

The inverter features a 7-inch industrial-grade touchscreen.

The larger display provides a convenient interface for viewing system information and managing local settings.

This makes day-to-day operation and system monitoring easier directly from the inverter.

Generator Integration

The inverter supports multiple generator connection methods and automatic generator control.

This provides additional flexibility for installations where a generator is used as another backup power source.

The exact generator configuration should be designed according to the inverter’s installation requirements.

IP66 Protection

The Solis S6-EH1P-5K-L-PLUS has an IP66 ingress protection rating, making it designed for operation in demanding environmental conditions.

The IP66 rating provides protection against dust ingress and powerful water jets when installed and used according to the manufacturer’s specifications.

This makes the inverter suitable for a range of challenging installation environments.

5-Year Warranty

The Solis 5kW S6-EH1P-5K-L-PLUS is offered with a 5-year warranty, providing additional peace of mind for customers investing in a long-term solar energy system.

Warranty conditions and coverage should be confirmed before purchase.
