The Felicity Solar IVEM5048-LV is a 5 kW (5 kVA) single-phase off-grid inverter-charger built on a 48 V DC battery bus, with a built-in 100 A MPPT solar charger that accepts up to 6 kW of PV. It runs a 110 V, 50/60 Hz pure sine wave circuit at up to 50 A from batteries, panels or mains. The IVEM5048-LV takes one PV string on a single MPPT tracker working from 120 V to 450 V, starting at 125 V, 500 V maximum. The charger on this 5 kW unit runs three stages at up to 100 A, 56.4 V bulk and 54 V float, for AGM, flooded, lithium-ion and self-defined banks over RS485 BMS. AC input from 65 V to 140 V lets a weak grid or generator carry this 5 kW unit's loads, passing 63 A through, with a 10 ms UPS-mode changeover. Peak efficiency is 93%, above 95% in line mode, with output held within 5% regulation across the full 50 A. The 13.1 kg wall-mounted IP21 body measures 460 x 343 x 137 mm and meets IEC 62109-1 and IEC 62109-2. We are an authorised Felicity Solar distributor and supply the IVEM5048-LV from our own stock.

Twenty-five Felicity inverters are IP21 and every SCCM charge controller says indoor wall-mount. IP20, IP21 and IP31 are indoor ratings, and the first digit - the dust one - is the half nobody reads. Here is which listing carries which.
Read: Can I Install a Solar Inverter Outside? What IP21, IP31 and IP65 Really Mean →An off-grid house is sized by surge, battery energy and charge current - and the surge row is the one that starts your fridge and your pump. Here are the published figures across the Felicity inverters and batteries, with the arithmetic to use them.
Read: How to Run a Whole House on Solar in Khartoum →Sana'a sits above 2,000 metres, and an inverter whose datasheet permits 2,000 m is not rated for the city at all. Here is the altitude row on 44 Felicity listings, model by model, and which ones cover your elevation.
Read: Which Solar Inverters Actually Work in Sana'a? →5 kW, 5 kVA apparent, single-phase at 110 V and 50/60 Hz, with up to 50 A of output current, a pure sine wave waveform and a surge rating of twice the rated power for 5 seconds.
6 kW is the maximum PV input power. The single MPPT tracker takes one string, works between 120 V and 450 V, starts at 125 V, accepts up to 20 A and 500 V maximum, and charges the battery at up to 100 A.
48 V nominal, over a 42-63 V working range: one battery input takes AGM, flooded, lithium-ion or self-defined banks, charged in three stages at 56.4 V bulk and 54 V float, 60 V maximum, at up to 100 A, with RS485 BMS communication.
-10 °C to 50 °C is the operating range for this wall-mounted IP21 unit. It measures 460 x 343 x 137 mm, weighs 13.1 kg net and 15 kg gross, uses intelligent air cooling and is stored between -15 °C and 60 °C.
