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 Sudan that is Sudanese Electricity Distribution Company (SEDC), Ministry of Energy and Petroleum. Confirm the grid code, import requirements and any local certification with them, or with us, before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the DEYE SUN-18K-G04-LV suitable for the Middle East climate?

Yes. DEYE inverters are rated for high ambient temperatures and dusty conditions common across the Gulf, North Africa and the wider MEA region, with IP-rated enclosures for outdoor installation in shaded areas.

What voltage systems is this compatible with?

The SUN-18K-G04-LV is specifically designed for low-voltage grids, supporting 127V/220V and 133V/230V systems.

Does it support Anti-PID?

Yes! The optional Anti-PID function helps prevent power degradation caused by Potential Induced Degradation in PV modules.
