Huawei SUN2000-4K-LB0

The Huawei SUN2000-4K-LB0 is a single-phase hybrid string inverter for small to medium-sized PV systems with storage option. It provides two independent MPP trackers, enabling flexible string design for different roof orientations or module inclinations. The AC rated power of 4.0kVA covers typical single-phase grid connections in residential and small commercial environments. On the DC side, the device operates with a maximum input voltage of 600V and MC4 connectors, simplifying integration of common module strings. The hybrid system topology allows the direct connection of compatible Huawei battery systems without external battery inverters. With protection class IP66, the inverter is suitable for protected outdoor installations. The compact enclosure weight of around 15kg facilitates handling and installation on site.

• TechnologyThe SUN2000-4K-LB0 uses a transformerless string inverter topology with integrated hybrid functionality. Two MPP trackers enable independent control of two PV input areas, which reduces yield losses, especially in partially shaded generator areas. The DC rated power is around 4.1kW, allowing a practical design with a moderate generator oversizing factor. The hybrid architecture enables bidirectional energy flow between PV generator, battery, and grid without additional external power electronics. Protection functions such as grid and system protection, DC and AC surge protection, as well as overcurrent monitoring are already integrated and designed for grid-compliant operation.
  
  Power electronics
  • Two independent MPP trackers for separate string control on different roof areas.
  • Transformerless hybrid topology for direct coupling of PV generator and battery system.
  • Single-phase grid connection with 4.0kVA AC rated power for typical household connections.
  • DC design up to 600V for common module string lengths in the residential segment.
• ConnectivityFor monitoring and parameterization, the inverter provides several communication interfaces. RS485 is integrated as standard and is typically used for Modbus-based system communication, smart meter connection, or component networking. In addition, integration into IP-based networks can be achieved via optional WLAN or Ethernet dongles. This enables connection to the Huawei monitoring ecosystem, including remote monitoring, firmware updates, and system analysis. The modular communication architecture allows interfaces to be configured as needed without modifying the inverter's hardware base.
