It operates quietly with no external fan, comes in a compact, lightweight package, and includes built‑in module‑level monitoring plus smartphone‑driven commissioning for fast setup and future battery integration.

Applications and use cases

Designed for residential rooftops and small commercial PV projects that require robust three‑phase grid connection and scalable energy storage options. Its compact footprint and IP65 enclosure allow outdoor mounting in varied climates, while its battery‑ready architecture enables a seamless upgrade to storage without adding a separate inverter. The unit supports Smart Energy Management to optimize PV production, storage charging, and grid interaction for higher self‑consumption and reliable backup when needed.

• Three‑phase Europe‑oriented grid compatibility for diverse residential and light commercial sites
• Outdoor installation capability with weatherproof IP65 protection
• Quiet operation suitable for homes and multi‑unit buildings
• Future battery storage integration using a single inverter platform

Key electrical and performance parameters

At the core, this inverter converts DC from the PV array into conditioned AC power for a three‑phase grid, while delivering high efficiency and broad operating limits. The SE5K‑RW0TEBEN4 accepts up to about 6.75 kW of DC input power, with a maximum DC voltage of 900 V and two DC inputs. It provides a 5 kW AC output on a three‑phase network with a nominal voltage around 380/220 V or 400/230 V, and a wide AC voltage range for stable operation across conditions. Built to endure demanding climates, it combines strong protection features with flexible communications for remote monitoring and integration into smart energy systems.
