SOLAR EDGE SE50K – RW00IBPQ4 inverter

The SOLAR EDGE SE50K – RW00IBPQ4 inverter is a three-phase C&I inverter designed for a 208V grid with a rated power of 50 kW. It is part of the modular Synergy series, allowing for DC oversizing up to 150% and quick start-up and simple service due to separate, identical inverter units and a central management module (Synergy Manager).

The device is produced by SolarEdge Technologies, a global leader in smart energy solutions and the largest manufacturer of photovoltaic inverters by revenue. SolarEdge provides module-level monitoring platform, global 24/7 support, and offers a factory warranty (standard 12 years) with the possibility of extending to 20 or 25 years.
