Enphase IQ8X Micro Inverter

Enphase IQ8X microinverter (380W)

The IQ8 Series Microinverters are powerful, smart grid-ready devices that are designed to work seamlessly with the latest high-output PV modules.

These microinverters are highly efficient and reliable, and they meet the industry’s strictest energy production and safety standards, including rapid shutdown functionality. The brain of the semiconductor-based microinverter is Enphase proprietary application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), which enables it to operate in a grid-connected mode.

This microinverter is compatible with high voltage solar panels such as the new REC 460W Alpha Pure RX.

Key Features

  • Microgrid-Forming Capability: The IQ8X can create a self-sustaining power grid from solar energy, providing continuous power during outages.
  • Rapid Shutdown for Safety: Meets rigorous safety standards by quickly deactivating the system in emergencies like fires or maintenance
  • Advanced ASIC Technology: Its specialised Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), which allows the inverter to quickly adapt to changes in power needs or grid conditions. This responsiveness reduces constraints on battery sizing and improves overall system efficiency.
  • Compatible with latest-generation high-output PV modules. Compatible with the whole range of REC Alpha Pure R. REC 410AA Pure-R, REC420AA Pure-R and REC460AA Pure-RX
  • Easy and fast to install and commission
  • Designed to support PV modules with higher input DC voltage and cell counts, such as 96-cell, 80-half-cell, and 88-half-cells.
  • Industry-leading limited warranty of up to 15 years, when installed and internet-connected with IQ Gateway, extendable to 20 and 25 years.
