    KODAK Off-grid inverter

    The OG 3.24 is ideal as an affordable and fully functional centre of your off-grid system.

    ThE wide MPP voltage range makes DC string design with your choice of module easy.  

    Best suited to smaller domestic systems where no parallel operation is needed. 

    Operates at 24V, so an ideal match with the Pylon US2500 24V model. 

    • Removable LCD control module with multiple communications servers and ATM
    • Built-in Bluetooth for mobile monitoring (Android App is available)
    • Replaceable fan design for ease of maintenance
    • Supply load from Grid or PV, even battery is not available
    • Configurable AC/PV output usage timer and prioritization
    • Selectable high power charging current
    • Selectable input voltage range for home appliances and personal computers
    • Compatible to Utility Mains or generator input
    • Auto restart while AC is recovering
    • Cold start function
     
    Note: The Kodak VMIII inverter has a CAN-bus port included, which means a direct connection to Plyontech batteries is possible. Therefore no other control module, such as the ICC, is needed

    Question

    Do you have 24v lithium batteries that is compatible?

    Question

    Is this inverter approved by the City of Cape Town? Is it NRS 097-2-1 certified?

    Answer

    Hi Shane, no it is not, and can never be - it is not a bidirectional inverter, cannot feed back into the grid, and hence cannot get an NRS 097-2-1 certification.

    Although it has an AC input, these inverters are considered "off-grid" inverters.

    Question

    How many and which wattage panels would you recommend with this Inverter to run direct from PV with Eskom as backup in case of PV dip in supply during the day? Obviously having batteries to support the PV supply and power dips during the day would help reduce use of Eskom during day I guess?

    Answer

    Hi Justin, you could put 8 x 460W panels in series on this inverter. Just note that without ESKOM or a battery, the solar will not work at all.

    Question

    Hi This may sound stupid but can you run power from your solar panels without batteries even when eskom is down during loadshedding? I see you said this inverter can run without batteries but Im assuming that means Eskom must be on? Regards.

    Answer

    Hi, yes, you either need a battery or ESKOM power to underpin the solar power being produced. There needs to be an underlying source that can prevent the loads from dropping in the event that the solar power drops below the load requirement.

    Question

    Would i be able to add additional batteries to this system

    Answer

    Hi Eric, yes you would.

    Question

    Hi. Regarding the KODAK Solar Off-Grid Inverter VMIII 3kW 24V: do the fan reduce in speed or shut down with low loads? If I pull load from solar panels for a 1kw element on a geyser for say 5 hours a day: would that be fine for the mppt and inverter? With incidental loads now and then? Thanks

    Answer

    Hi Tobie, no this inverters fans will not do that - they're either on or they're off depending on the internal heat of the unit. Yes it can run a 1kW element no problem.

    Question

    Sorry, just to check the one comment in the feature list, can I use this invertor without batteries? Supply load from Grid or PV, even battery is not available. Like a grid tied invertor? Also which is a better unit and why this Kodak or the equivalent Axpert?

    Answer

    HI, yes, this particular inverter can be used without batteries.

    The Kodak and the Axpert are exactly the same machine just branded differently - there is no difference between this and the axpert equivalent.
