LEDVANCE DC/AC grid inverter

When specifying a photovoltaic system where DC current from solar modules must be converted to AC for the grid—or stored for backup power—the LEDVANCE grid-connected inverter becomes a key component
LEDVANCE offers string, hybrid and high-voltage inverters with power ranges from a few kilowatts to tens of kilowatts
From a procurement-engineer’s view: you’re not just buying an inverter, you’re buying a conversion system that impacts lifetime cost, efficiency, safety and integration across modules, storage and control systems.

LEDVANCE Solar Inverter Units – Technical Features & System Integration

Key Features

  • High efficiency (typically above 97 %) in string-inverter models
  • Multiple MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) channels, DC input ranges suitable for string arrays.
  • Models include: LT-series (string), LHT-HV (high-voltage hybrid) etc. Power ranges: 3.6 kW to 50 kW for different phase. 
  • Hybrid versions support battery storage and off-grid/backup modes (UPS-level switching < 10 ms) for critical loads. 
  • Remote monitoring, datalogging, optional zero-export mode and built-in DC switch

Practical Applications

  • Residential solar installations: String inverter 3.6–8 kW single-phase works for typical homes.
  • Commercial rooftop installations: 10–30 kW three-phase units suit mid-sized buildings.
  • Utility/industrial scale: High-voltage hybrid inverters (5–50 kW or more) integrate with storage and grid systems.
  • Backup power or off-grid hybrids: In systems where grid reliability is low, hybrid models from LEDVANCE support battery integration and smart energy management.

Integration Notes

When specifying, check:

  • PV array design: voltage, current, number of parallel/series strings.
  • Grid interface: single-phase vs three-phase, local export regulations, zero-export requirements.
  • Storage compatibility: hybrid model if you add battery modules later.
  • Environment: operating temperature range -25 °C to +60 °C is common. For example LEDVANCE lists that range for some models.
  • Communication & monitoring: RS-485, WiFi/Bluetooth, datalogger, firmware updates.
  • Warranty and service: LEDVANCE offers 10-year guarantee for some inverter models

LEDVANCE Hybrid Inverters – Flexibility & Future-Proof

The hybrid version of the LEDVANCE inverter family allows greater flexibility: grid tie today, storage tomorrow. As noted: “Hybrid inverter for usage with PV panels and additionally connectable to energy storage system.”
In practice, if you’re running a commercial installation and expect demand-charge management, peak shaving or grid-outage resilience, a hybrid inverter is the smarter choice. Choosing a brand-consistent system (LEDVANCE modules + inverter + storage) simplifies compatibility issues and reduces vendor-mix complexity.

LEDVANCE Power Conversion Systems & Accessories – Full Ecosystem

LEDVANCE emphasises that its inverter solutions are part of a full photovoltaic ecosystem: solar modules, LEDs, inverters, storage and monitoring.
Accessories can include: DC/AC cable kits, surge protection devices (SPD), remote meters, firmware modules, and spare fan units for cooling.
From a supply-chain angle: if you standardise on one brand for modules+inverter+monitoring, your procurement logistics simplify and long-term service/spare planning becomes easier.

Buyer Checklist & Practical Specifier Guidance

Specification

Why It Matters

Rated power (kW)Ensures correct sizing for PV array and load. Undersized inverter reduces yield.
MPPT channelsMore channels = better handling of shading, multiple arrays.
Voltage input rangeMust match PV string design to avoid clipping or under-utilisation.
Grid interface & phaseNeed to match site grid: single vs three-phase, export rules.
Storage compatibilityIf future battery add-on is planned, choose hybrid-capable now.
Efficiency & coolingHigher efficiency → less loss; adequate cooling ensures longevity.
Monitoring & dataEssential for performance tracking, ROI calculation and warranty claims.
Compliance & warrantyVerify CE/EN standards, local grid codes, manufacturer warranty (10y+).

Common mistake: ordering an inverter based only on kW rating but not checking input voltage or MPPT count — leads to mismatched array and lower production. Another pitfall: ignoring future storage needs and buying a non-hybrid inverter when later storage is added.
