SISV-8.2K-H(TWIN) Hybrid inverter 8.2kW 1Ф (battery 48V)

The heavy-duty single-phase off-grid/hybrid inverter SISV-8.2K-H(TWIN) from Veichi boasts a rated capacity of 8.2 kW and operates with low-voltage 48V battery banks. The inverter delivers a high combined solar and utility charging current of up to 160A, transfers to backup mode in less than 10 ms, and is equipped with 2 highly efficient MPPT trackers. The dual AC output (TWIN technology) provides microgrid-grade smart power routing for primary and secondary load distribution.

Typical Applications:

• Autonomous and backup energy supply for large residences, country estates, or offices with high-demand single-phase service.
• Off-grid professional workshops or agricultural sites requiring substantial start-up surge capacity.
• High-amperage backup networks paired with parallel low-voltage LiFePO4 storage configurations.

Critical Warning: Managing currents up to 160A under a 48V nominal architecture mandates the use of heavy-gauge DC battery cables with a cross-section of 70-95 mm² and a 200A class-T DC fuse. Ensure all connection terminals are torqued tightly to prevent thermal hot spots.

Veichi SI — hybrid solar inverter for off-grid and backup power

SI is Veichi's range of single-phase hybrid inverters, 3–10.2 kW (220/230 V output, 50/60 Hz). It combines solar panels, a battery and the grid in one box: by day it draws from the panels, sends the surplus to the battery, and keeps the grid as backup. It's used on private homes, country houses, small farms and any site that needs to ride through outages.

The built-in MPPT controller works in a 60–450 V window (500 V DC max input), with conversion efficiency up to 97%. The battery is 24 or 48 V. For lithium batteries you set the type to LIB in the menu: the inverter activates lithium within 3 seconds and brings up the BMS link over the PACE protocol.

What SI is good for

• Home backup (3–6 kW): on a grid outage it switches to the battery without a break for critical loads. Size it with headroom for inrush — a pump or compressor draws 3–5× its rating at start.
• Off-grid system: panels + battery with no grid at all — a farm, a pump house, a remote site.
• Hybrid with daytime self-consumption: by day it runs on solar, the battery charges, the grid is a fallback.
• 8–10.2 kW sites (TWIN): the larger models in the series for bigger loads.

Source-priority modes (verified against the manual)

In practice, in summer people run Solar First or SBU (maximum from the sun); in winter, with weak generation, Utility First so the battery isn't drained to zero. It switches from the LCD panel in seconds.

What to know before installation

• Battery type — LIB: for lithium set the type to LIB, then the inverter activates the battery and brings up the PACE BMS link. For lead-acid there's a separate profile with charge voltages. Compatible lithium batteries are in the battery catalog.
• BMS handshake with lithium batteries: if the battery "isn't seen" over the link, it's almost always the CAN/RS485 pinout and the protocol choice for the specific battery maker. A field walkthrough (including Felicity): Veichi inverter–BMS handshake.
• Grid sensitivity: the AC input works in roughly 195–253 V. On weak rural grids with dips the inverter may switch to the battery more often — that's normal behavior, not a fault.
• MPPT window 60–450 V: build the panel string so the voltage stays in this range (500 V max input). A string that's too short falls out of the MPPT window on an overcast day — generation drops.
• Connection order: battery first, then the solar panels and grid — never feed panels into the inverter without the battery connected.

When SI is NOT the right choice

• Three-phase load or power above 10 kW — you need the three-phase Veichi VH hybrids
• Motor control only (no solar/battery) — that's an ordinary VFD, see Veichi AC10/AC310
• An industrial grid-tied solar plant without storage — you need an on-grid inverter, not a hybrid

Our experience

Most people contact us after the install — "the inverter doesn't see the lithium battery". Nine times out of ten it's not a fault but a mismatched BMS link: the wrong protocol or a swapped CAN pinout. So we suggest matching the battery model to the inverter already at the selection stage.
