Product Description

The new IQ8X-80-M-US microinverter, designed for higher voltage 80/160, 88/176, and 96-cell solar modules. These are part of the Enphase IQ8 series - the industry's first microgrid-forming, software defined microinverters with split-phase power conversion capability to convert DC power to AC power efficiently. The leading microinverter brand due to advanced technology, features, and warranty. The 1:1 configuration with your solar modules means maximum performance energy yield & system reliability in any conditions.

IQ8X Microinverter is the latest addition to the Enphase IQ8 family, designed to support PV modules with higher input DC voltage and cell counts, such as 80-half-cut cells, 88-half-cut cells and 96-cells. If your solar module's Voc is higher than 50V, then the IQ8X is your best option for Canadian climates.

The brain of this advanced semiconductor-based microinverter is Enphase's proprietary application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) which enables the microinverter to operate in grid-tied or off-grid modes. This chip is built in advanced 55nm technology with high speed digital logic and has super-fast response times to changing loads and grid events, alleviating constraints on battery sizing for home energy systems.
