Fixon FLEX 12kW Single Phase Hybrid Solar Inverter – PV-18000 (FXN-12KW-FLX12)
The Fixon FLEX 12kW is a single-phase 48V hybrid solar inverter designed for large homes and businesses that need high power output with reliable backup. It has 3 MPPT trackers and accepts up to 18,000W of solar panel power, so you can install more panels than the inverter’s rated output. It works with lithium-ion and lead-acid batteries, has a generator input, and has a second output (OUT2) for smart load management. The IP66 rating means it is dust-tight and protected against strong water jets. It comes with a 5-year warranty.
