Kaco Inverter blueplanet 1502xi / 2502xi / 3502xi / 5002xi

KACO blueplanet 2502xi inverter

KACO blueplanet 02xi grid-tied inverter series

KACO blueplanet 02xi grid-tied inverter series

The KACO blueplanet 02xi gridtied inverter series, which was engineered using cutting-edge technology, has the highest energy efficiency in its class at over 95.5 %. Incorporating convection-cooled aluminium housing, the inverter is highly reliable. The internal electronic design has been simplified and made more reliable using the latest generation of Digital Control technology. The inverter features a programmable LCD display with a night switch and a play web monitoring option. The units come pre-assembled to a connection box including an NEC compliant AC/DC disconnect switch. A grid voltage of 240 or 208 VAC can be selected depending on the field.
