Product details
GEN24 SC
GEN24 SC by Fronius is a series of three-phase photovoltaic inverters with power ratings of 3–12 kW, equipped with the basic PV Point backup power function. Open interfaces enable the integration of components from Fronius and other suppliers, while energy management functions help control system operation. Integrated active cooling extends the inverter’s service life.
Key advantages of GEN24 SC
- Power 3–12 kW and a maximum efficiency of 98.1–98.3%, depending on the model.
- Built-in PV Point – basic backup power function with a single-phase 220/230 V output and a rated power of 3000 VA.
- Two maximum power point trackers (MPPT), DC input voltage range of 80–1000 V and usable MPP voltage range of 80–800 V.
- Connectivity and integration – WLAN, two Ethernet LAN ports and two RS485 interfaces, plus support for Fronius Solar.web, Modbus TCP SunSpec and Fronius Solar API.
- Protection rating IP66, suitable for indoor and outdoor installation and an ambient temperature range from -25 to +60 °C.
- Integrated protection – arc detection, reverse polarity protection, DC insulation measurement, DC disconnector and WSD emergency shutdown.
Who is this a good choice for?
GEN24 SC is an option for photovoltaic system owners who want basic PV Point backup power and performance monitoring via Fronius Solar.web. It is also suitable for users planning to integrate their system with components from Fronius or other suppliers, thanks to open interfaces and energy management functions.
