Fox ESS T8-G3 8kW Inverter: The Powerful & Flexible Three-Phase Solar Inverter

The Fox ESS T8-G3 provides a significant step up in power, delivering 8kW of efficient three-phase AC output. As part of the advanced T-Series G3 range, this string inverter is designed for larger residential properties with three-phase supply or small commercial installations seeking high performance and reliability from their solar panel system.

Flexible Solar Array Design with Asymmetric Dual MPPT

How to choose an inverter for uneven solar strings? The T8-G3 features a sophisticated dual Maximum Power Point Tracker (MPPT) setup. Notably, the datasheet indicates these MPPTs handle different maximum input currents (28A/14A). This asymmetric capability provides excellent flexibility when designing systems with potentially unbalanced strings, perhaps due to different panel types or numbers per string across two roof aspects, while still maximising the energy harvest from both.

High Efficiency for Maximum Energy Yield

Convert more solar power into usable energy. The T-Series G3 inverters are known for their high performance, and the T8-G3 achieves an impressive maximum efficiency of up to 98.6%, according to the technical information provided by Fox ESS. This high conversion rate translates into greater energy savings and a better return on your solar investment.

Durable and Reliable Operation

Engineered for lasting performance, the T8-G3 inverter is housed in an IP65-rated enclosure, ensuring protection against dust and water and making it suitable for outdoor installation. Professional fitting with appropriate solar cabling and solar mounting systems is recommended. Its transformerless topology and natural convection cooling contribute to reliable and quiet operation.

Smart Monitoring Integration

Easily track your system's performance. The T8-G3 includes an LCD display for on-site checks and, as per the product literature, is compatible with optional WiFi or 4G modules. Connecting these enables remote monitoring via the Fox ESS Cloud platform through a smartphone app or web browser, giving you access to real-time and historical generation data.
