  • 📟 LCD display with configurable settings
  • 🔌 Supports grid or generator input
  • ❄️ Cold-start and battery-activation functions
  • 🛡️ Overload and short-circuit protection

☀️ High-Voltage MPPT Solar Charging

The IVEM6048 supports up to 7000W of solar panels with a PV working range of 90–450V DC and a maximum open-circuit voltage of 500V DC.

This high-voltage solar input can help provide:

  • ☀️ Longer solar-panel strings
  • 📉 Lower PV-side current
  • 🔌 Reduced cable losses
  • 🏠 Cleaner rooftop wiring
  • ⚡ Easier integration of larger PV arrays

The solar-panel string must be designed so that the combined Voc never exceeds 500V DC.

🔋 48V Battery System

The inverter operates on a 48V battery bank and can be paired with compatible:

  • 🔋 48V / 51.2V LiFePO₄ lithium batteries
  • 🔋 Gel batteries
  • 🔋 AGM batteries
  • 🔋 Tubular batteries
  • 🔋 Deep-cycle lead-acid batteries

Correct charging voltage, current and battery settings should always be configured for the specific battery model being used.

⚡ Strong Charging Performance

The inverter provides substantial charging capability for larger battery banks:

  • ☀️ Solar charging: Up to 120A
  • 🔌 Utility charging: Up to 100A
  • ⚡ PV + grid combined charging: Up to 120A

This makes it especially suitable for medium-size lithium battery systems where faster battery recovery is important.

🔗 Parallel Expansion

The IVEM6048 supports up to 12 compatible units in parallel, allowing the system to be expanded where more output power is required.

This makes it suitable for installations that may need additional capacity in the future.

✅ Benefits

  • Powerful 6kW pure sine wave output
  • 48V battery architecture
  • High-voltage 500V solar input
  • Up to 7kW of PV capacity
  • 120A MPPT solar charging
  • Supports grid and generator input
  • Battery-free pass-through capability
  • Parallel expansion up to 12 units
  • Compact wall-mounted design
  • Suitable for larger residential and light-commercial solar systems
