Fronius Primo 5.0-1, 5000W Non-Isolated String Inverter | 208/240 VAC
Description
Design flexibility and unrivaled power capability in one sleek package
The transformerless, single-phase Fronius Primo 5.0 kW is the ideal solar inverter for residential applications wth a 208/240 grid connection. The SnapINverter has many standard features, making it convenient and"one-stop shop" for a high quality inverter. The hinge mounting system and lightweight inverter itself creates a streamlined installation process that can be done in under 15 minutes. Several industry-leading additions come standard with the Fronius Primo including Wi-Fi and SunSpec Modbus interfaces for seamless monitoring and datalogging, field proven Arc Fault Circuit Interruption (AFCI), and Fronius' free online and mobile monitoring platform. The Fronius Primo is NEC 2014 compliant and ready for codes and standards of the future. This great solution is now also available with a Revenue Grade Metering option, completely integrated.
