Hybrid inverter

EG4 FlexBOSS21: specs and datasheet

  • UL 3141
  • UL 1741

FlexBOSS21 delivers 12 kW on battery alone and 16 kW with PV and grid at 25 °C, with three MPPTs and up to 21 kW of recommended solar. It is built around 51.2 V batteries, and its datasheet recommends at least 600 Ah of battery per inverter, a bigger bank than the other inverters that list a minimum. Peak power reaches 24,000 W for half a second. It is rated NEMA 4X and carries a 10-year warranty.
