The Deye SUN-18K-SG05LP3-EU-SM2 is an 18 kW three-phase hybrid inverter built around a 3L+N+PE grid connection and a rated AC output active power of 18000 W. It produces 27.3 A or 26.1 A per phase at 220/380 V or 230/400 V, reaches 30 A and 19800 VA at the limit, and accepts a 100% unbalanced load with 50% carried by any one phase. Ten units in parallel and a 70 A pass-through cover a factory feeder. The PV side is rated for 28800 W of input across two MPPTs with 2+2 strings, allows up to 36000 W of connected modules and tracks from 160 V within an 800 V maximum. Two 40-60 V battery ports charge and discharge at up to 330 A, following the pack BMS. Housed in a 456 x 750 x 268.5 mm IP65 cabinet weighing 51.9 kg, it has a stated 10-year warranty. We are an authorised Deye distributor and supply the SUN-18K-SG05LP3-EU-SM2 from our own stock, with technical support before and after the sale.
