The Kent G3 Hybrid Inverter is Kent’s three-phase hybrid platform — PV, low-voltage battery, grid, backup and a generator port — in 10, 12 and 15 kW models.

The three models

Platform facts every installer must know

  • Three-phase 3/N/PE, 220/380 V or 230/400 V, grid window 323–460 V, 50/60 Hz.
  • Low-voltage battery: 40–60 V DC, Li-ion or lead-acid, BMS over CAN (RS485 supported).
  • Backup: transfer < 10 ms, overload 2× rated power for 10 s, max continuous AC pass-through 50 A, max phase imbalance 50 %.
  • IP66, operating −40 °C to +60 °C, RH 0–95 %, altitude ≤ 4000 m, smart fan cooling (air in LEFT, out RIGHT), < 65 dB(A), ≤ 42 kg, non-isolated, night self-consumption < 30 W.
  • PV: max 1000 V, MPPT window 200–850 V, startup 160 V, two MPPTs (up to 3 strings on 10/12 kW, 4 on 15 kW).
  • GEN port is three-phase and rated to the inverter’s own power/current per model.

The datalogger stick is fitted physically at installation and is activated with Kent Central Command — documentation to follow. All commissioning here is written around the on-device HMI (screen + 4 keys); no app is required.

What this platform is not

The Kent G3 is not a single-phase machine and is not interchangeable with the Kent M1 — torque, menu passwords, DIP positions, TOU units and DG rules all differ. Mixed crews print the Mixed-Fleet Cheat Card.
