Manufacturer: Ningbo Deye Inverter Technology Co., Ltd

Application: The Deye SUN-14K-SG05LP3-EU-SM2 is a three-phase hybrid inverter rated at 14000 W of AC output active power, sized for a farm or a light industrial unit on a 3L+N+PE service. Output is 220/380 V or 230/400 V at 21.3 A or 20.3 A per phase, 23.4 A at the ceiling and 15400 VA of apparent power; ten of them can be paralleled, and the AC pass-through carries 70 A continuously to the backup bus. Two MPPTs accept 2+2 strings, 36+36 A of operating input current and 22400 W of PV input, with a maximum PV input voltage of 800 V and tracking from 160 V to 650 V. Two battery inputs, each 40-60 V, share up to 260 A of charge or discharge and accept lead-acid or lithium-ion packs. The 51.9 kg IP65 chassis is air-cooled, stays under 60 dB and carries a stated 10-year warranty.

Figures on this page are the manufacturer's own, measured at the test conditions the datasheet states — they do not change by country. What changes is the approval that has to be met before the unit is energised: in Iraq that is Ministry of Electricity Iraq.
