Knox Krypton 11000 8kW Hybrid Inverter

Note: 8000 W output from up to 11,000 W of PV split as 5500 W on each of two trackers. 150 A from solar, 120 A from mains and 150 A combined. Surge 16,000 VA, 35 A nominal output current. Float charge 54 V, overcharge cut-off 66 V. Two MPPTs at 27 A each (40 A maximum) on a 90 to 450 V window with a 500 V ceiling, starting at 120 V and feeding the grid from 150 V, on a 48 V bank. Parallels to 6 units. The datasheet prints its grid output range as 170 to 280 V, the same figures as the off-grid input windows, rather than a feed-in window, so ask the dealer what grid voltage it exports at. Knox name the base model as the Hybrid Infini Max II 8kW-48V Twin. Not the same inverter as the newer Krypton 11008, a different 8 kW model. 20 kg in a 503.6 × 530.8 × 158.4 mm case. Knox's datasheet files the whole Krypton range under a Grid-Tie Operation section with grid feeding, so it is listed as a hybrid, but it names no grid certification (no IEC 62116 anti-islanding or IEC 61727), so confirm your distribution company will accept it for net metering before planning an export system. Pure sine wave output with a 10 ms transfer for computers and 20 ms for appliances, 93% battery-mode efficiency and 95% maximum DC to AC conversion. Dual outputs for smart load management, a 12 V DC output of up to 100 W for a DC fan, LED lights or a router, RGB status lights, built-in WiFi with an Android and iOS app, USB on-the-go, and a reserved BMS port (RS485, CAN or RS232). It runs without a battery and accepts mains or generator input, restarting on mains once it returns to 180 V. Replaceable fan and a built-in anti-dust kit. Rated -10 to +50 °C. The datasheet gives no IP rating and no warranty term, so ask the dealer for both.
