At Eastman, customer satisfaction doesn’t end with product delivery— it continues throughout the entire lifecycle of our solutions.” Mr. Singal added The Eastman Grid Tie Inverters (GridXcel) is engineered to deliver exceptional efficiency and output in high demand solar environments. It supports up to 1.5x PV installation overload, maximizing energy harvest and allowing greater system design flexibility. With a low startup voltage, it begins generating power earlier in the day, even in low-light conditions. Its high DC input voltage capacity and maximum AC output power make it perfect for large PV arrays, ensuring peak system performance. Additionally, the inverter supports bifacial solar panels up to 700W. It also offers the highest AC output current in its class, making it ideal for power-intensive operations. Eastman offers a comprehensive range of Grid Tie Inverters, from 3kW to 110kW, catering to a wide variety of needs. Our three-phase Grid Tie Inverter range (5kW to 110kW) is tailored specifically for residential and commercial solar installations, combining flexibility, scalability, and cutting-edge technology in one solution. Built to withstand tough environments, the Grid Tie Inverters (GridXcel) functions across a wide temperature range of -25°C to +60°C, ensuring durability in diverse weather conditions. With a 10-year warranty, customers are assured of long-term reliability and peace of mind. With zero export function, it enables complete on-site consumption of solar power, helping businesses reduce electricity bills without feeding excess energy back to the grid. The inverter is equipped with a comprehensive protection suite, including DC reverse polarity, AC overcurrent/overvoltage, short-circuit, and thermal protection, ensuring maximum safety for equipment and users. Type II DC/AC surge protection offers an added layer of defense against voltage fluctuations and grid disturbances. In terms of intelligent connectivity, the Grid Tie Inverters (GridXcel) provides multiple communication options such as GPRS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 4G, and LAN, ensuring flexible remote monitoring. With an IP65-rated enclosure, the inverter is dustproof and waterproof—suitable for rugged outdoor environments. Its intelligent cooling system guarantees consistent operation even under high load conditions.
