SOFAR HYD Single Phase Hybrid Solar Inverter – 5kW / 6kW

Solar, Battery Storage & Backup Power in One Smart System Take greater control of your household energy with the SOFAR HYD 5000-EP / 6000-EP Single Phase Hybrid Inverter. Designed to combine solar generation, battery storage, grid electricity and backup power within one intelligent system, the SOFAR HYD helps you use more of the solar energy your home produces and reduce reliance on electricity purchased from the grid. Available in 5kW and 6kW, it's a strong choice for Australian single-phase homes looking for a battery-ready solar system with backup capability. Use More of Your Solar Your solar panels often generate their most electricity during the day when household demand may be relatively low. Instead of simply exporting that excess electricity, the SOFAR HYD can charge a compatible battery so the stored energy is available for use later. That means more of your own solar can be used in the evening, overnight or during other periods when solar production is low — helping increase solar self-consumption and reduce grid dependence. Battery Storage Ready The HYD 5000-EP and HYD 6000-EP are designed to operate with compatible low-voltage battery storage systems. With a 42–58V battery operating range and up to 100A maximum charging and discharging current, the inverter provides substantial battery charging capability for residential energy-storage applications. Both models support up to 5kW battery charging and discharging power. Backup Power During Grid Outages Add a compatible battery and correctly configured backup circuit and the SOFAR HYD can provide EPS backup power when the electricity grid goes down. With a default transfer time of approximately 10ms, the inverter is designed to switch rapidly from grid operation to backup supply, helping keep designated essential loads operating during an outage. Flexible Solar Design with Dual MPPT Two independent MPPT trackers provide greater flexibility when designing your rooftop solar system. This is particularly useful for homes with solar panels installed across different roof orientations or separate strings. The system provides a wide 90–550V MPPT operating range and supports up to 600V maximum PV input voltage. Install More Solar Both models allow the solar array to be oversized relative to the inverter's rated AC output: Model Rated Output Recommended Max. PV HYD 5000-EP 5kW 7.5kWp HYD 6000-EP 6kW 9kWp This gives homeowners greater flexibility when designing a system to maximise daytime solar production. High Conversion Efficiency The SOFAR HYD is designed to efficiently convert the electricity generated by your solar panels into usable household energy. The series offers up to 97.8% maximum inverter efficiency and up to 99.9% MPPT efficiency, helping minimise unnecessary conversion losses. Smart Energy Management Multiple operating modes allow the system to intelligently manage electricity between your solar panels, battery, household and grid. Depending on system configuration, this allows you to prioritise solar self-consumption, battery charging and other energy-management strategies rather than simply operating as a conventional solar-only inverter. Monitor Your Solar & Battery System The HYD Series provides smart communications and monitoring options, allowing homeowners and installers to keep track of system performance. Communication options include RS485, CAN and Wi-Fi, with optional Ethernet and 4G connectivity depending on system configuration. Built for Residential Installation With an IP65-rated enclosure, the SOFAR HYD is designed for flexible residential installation environments. Its compact wall-mounted design combines the solar inverter and battery-management functionality into one integrated unit, helping create a cleaner and simpler solar-and-storage installation.
