About this product

What it is, and what it is for

Growatt 12 kW Split-Phase 120/240 V Off-Grid Inverter-Charger

A 12 kW low-frequency off-grid inverter for a 48 V battery bank, with split-phase 120/240 V output, a built-in 120 A MPPT solar charger and a 100 A charger from a generator or the grid. The size for a full off-grid house or a shop: it starts a well pump, a central air unit or a compressor on its 36 kW surge, and its copper transformer takes the abuse of motor loads that high-frequency inverters cannot.

The MPPT accepts up to 7,000 W of panels at up to 250 V DC, and you can set solar or grid as the priority source and schedule charging from the AC input, so a generator runs only when it must. Transfer between sources is under 10 ms, so the house does not notice. It works with LiFePO4 and lead-acid banks, monitors over Wi-Fi or GPRS, and is listed to UL 1741 and CSA C22.2 No. 107.1. 97 percent peak efficiency; IP21, so it mounts indoors in a dry, ventilated space; about 75 kg (165 lb); 2-year warranty.

Size the battery for the 12 kW: a 48 V LiFePO4 bank of 200 Ah or more, and 4/0 AWG battery cable with a 300 A fuse or breaker. For a matched package with panels and battery see the 12 kW off-grid system. Specifications are from Growatt's datasheet and are for reference; the installation must follow the manual, the NEC and local code, be carried out by a licensed electrician.

Common questions

Before you order.

If yours isn't here, ask an engineer. It costs nothing and it's the step most people skip.

What if I'm not sure this is the right product?

Ask before you order. Send us what you need to run, or your pool or well figures, and an engineer will confirm the choice — it costs nothing. Or use the finder below, which sizes from what you actually run and shows its reasoning.
