Product Description
Deye SUN-16K-SG01LP1-EU is a 16kW single-phase hybrid inverter designed for high-power residential and small commercial photovoltaic installations. Part of Deye’s innovative SG01LP1-EU series, this inverter integrates solar power generation, low-voltage battery storage, and grid interaction into a single intelligent unit, delivering reliable energy management for both on-grid and off-grid applications.
Key Features
16kW Rated Output Power: Provides sufficient capacity to power most households and significantly reduce electricity bills, with a peak power of 32kW (2 times rated power for 10 seconds) to handle large inductive loads such as air conditioners and water pumps.
3 Independent MPPT Trackers: Enables connection of multiple solar strings with different orientations, maximizing energy harvest even under partial shading conditions. The MPPT voltage range spans 150–425V with a maximum PV input voltage of 500V.
High Battery Charging/Discharging Current: Supports up to 290A maximum charging and discharging current, enabling rapid response to consumption peaks and dynamic energy management. Two independent battery inputs facilitate flexible configurations and future expansion.
Low-Voltage Battery Compatibility: Works with both lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries in the 40–60V range, with self-adaptive BMS communication for seamless lithium battery integration.
Parallel Capability: Supports up to 16 units in parallel for both on-grid and off-grid operation, allowing system scalability from 16kW to 256kW to meet growing energy demands.
AC Coupling for Retrofit: Enables AC coupling to upgrade existing solar systems, making it an ideal solution for homeowners looking to add battery storage to their current PV installations.
Diesel Generator Support: Capable of storing energy from diesel generators, providing a comprehensive backup power solution for remote areas or grid-unstable regions.
6 Time Periods for Battery Charging/Discharging: Allows customized energy management schedules to optimize self-consumption and reduce reliance on grid electricity during peak hours.
IP65 Protection Degree: Ensures reliable outdoor installation with protection against dust and water ingress.

Diesel generator integration: Supports hybrid operation with diesel generators for areas with unstable grid supply.
FAQ
Yes. The inverter supports up to 16 units in parallel for both on-grid and off-grid operation, scaling system capacity from 16kW up to 256kW. This makes it suitable for growing energy demands in residential and small commercial applications. Multiple batteries can also be connected in parallel to match the expanded system capacity. The inverter also supports three-phase parallel configurations, allowing for flexible system architecture.
Deye inverters support both automatic and manual firmware updates. The inverter should auto-update to the latest version when connected to the network and running for approximately 30 minutes. For manual updates, you can use the Deye Cloud platform (remote parameter setting and firmware updates are supported), a USB flash drive with FAT32 format, or contact Deye service with the inverter serial number to receive the appropriate firmware package. The HMI firmware should be updated first, followed by the main firmware.
The SUN-16K-SG01LP1-EU incorporates comprehensive integrated protections including: DC reverse polarity protection, AC output overcurrent protection, thermal protection, AC output overvoltage protection, AC output short circuit protection, DC component monitoring, arc fault detection and protection, output residual current detection, insulation impedance detection, DC disconnect, and surge protection (TYPE II for both DC and AC). These features ensure safe and reliable operation across a wide range of conditions.
