Description
xSolis 6kW Hybrid Solar Inverter S6-EH1P6K-L-PLUS – Wi-Fi and Energy Meter Included
The Solis S6-EH1P6K-L-PLUS is a 6kW single phase hybrid inverter for residential solar and battery storage systems in the UK and Europe. It is G98 and G99 compliant, MCS certified, and supports both grid export and zero-export self-consumption. Supplied with Wi-Fi dongle and energy meter as standard.
Key Features
- 6kW rated output, single phase 230V
- G98 and G99 compliant, MCS certified for UK grid connection
- Supports full export, controlled export and 0W zero-export mode
- 6-stage timed charge and discharge function
- Smart AC timer for off-peak tariff battery charging
- UPS-grade backup switching time under 4ms
- 10 seconds of 200% overload capacity
- Dual backup ports for smart load management
- Generator interface included
- Parallel operation supported: up to 48kW combined
- Wi-Fi dongle included for SolisCloud monitoring
- Energy meter included
Product Overview
The 6-stage timed charge and discharge function allows the battery to be charged during low-tariff overnight periods and discharged during peak hours, which reduces grid import costs without manual intervention. This works alongside the smart AC timer for time-of-use tariff management.
The UPS switching time of under 4ms is fast enough to maintain power to computers, NAS drives and other devices that cannot tolerate a break in supply. This is significantly faster than the 20ms transfer time found on most standard hybrid inverters.
Parallel operation allows multiple S6-EH1P6K-L-PLUS units to be combined for larger installations, with a maximum combined output of 48kW. This suits small commercial premises or larger homes with high consumption.
Applications
- Residential solar PV and battery storage systems
- Grid-connected ESS for self-consumption and peak shaving
- Time-of-use tariff optimisation (Octopus Agile, Economy 7 etc.)
- Properties requiring UPS-grade backup for sensitive equipment
- Small commercial single phase systems with parallel expansion
What Is Included
- 1 x Solis S6-EH1P6K-L-PLUS 6kW hybrid inverter
- Wi-Fi dongle for SolisCloud monitoring
- Energy meter
Installation Notes
Grid connection requires G98 or G99 compliance (UK) depending on system size. Installation must be carried out by a qualified MCS-accredited installer. Battery type and BMS protocol must be configured correctly before commissioning. Contact us for pre-sales support and system design assistance.
