A subsidiary of Siemens AG since April 2019, KACO New Energy promoted its latest 3-phase string inverter models at Intersolar Europe 2024.

Speaking to TaiyangNews, KACO highlighted the latest blueplanet 100 NX3 / 125 NX3 series 3-phase string inverter suitable for commercial and industrial (C&I) roof applications.

The 100 NX3 series with 100 kW AC output, equipped with 8 MPPT channels of up to 30 A current carrying capacity each, is compatible with bifacial and high-power photovoltaic (PV) modules. However, the 125 NX3 series, featuring 10 MPPT channels with similar specifications, boasts a nominal AC power output of 125 kW. The 200% DC oversizing capacity for both models ensure additional solar power generation, said the company. KACO noted that the inverter with an IP66-rated enclosure offers a built-in AFCI feature, which mitigates the risk of any arc fault generation. These inverters can communicate between them and 3rd party devices via multiple interface options – LAN, RS485, USB, and WiFi.

KACO confirms this model’s commercial availability for the European region while the certification processes are ongoing for other major regions.
