very seldom equal to the direct product of the volts and amperes. In order to find the power of a 
single phase ac circuit the product of volts and amperes must be multiplied by the power factor. 

PV 

Abbreviation for photovoltaic 

BAT 

 

BAT is an acronym for lithium or lead acid battery 

Charging 

   

An SPH hybrid inverter charger uses PV energy or grid energy to charge a battery 

Discharging 

 

  It means that the SPH hybrid inverter supplies the battery energy to the load

 

wireless communication 

The external wireless communication technology is a radio technology that allows the inverter and 
other communication products to communicate with each other. The external wireless 
communication does not require line of sight between the devices and it is selective purchasing. 

 

 

1.4 Product Description 

  SPH Series is used to store energy generated by the photovoltaic cell panels or energy from grid if it is 

allowed in the battery, also energy can be sent to power grid through SPH for self consumption or when Grid 
power is lost, SPH can be used as backup power.   

SPH series has six kinds of type: 

 

Growatt SPH3000.       

 

Growatt SPH3600. 

 

Growatt SPH4000. 

 

Growatt SPH4600. 

 

Growatt SPH5000. 

 

Growatt SPH6000. 

 

SPH 3000TL BL-UP             

 

SPH 3600 TL BL-UP             

 

SPH 4000TL BL-UP           

 

SPH 4600TL BL-UP             

 

SPH 5000TL BL-UP           

 

SPH 6000TL BL-UP           

Note: We describe this series as “SPH” as below. 

 
Note:   

In  different  country,  we  provide  different  power.  Such  as  in  Germany,  we  can  provide  SPH  3000~SPH 

4600TL  BL-UP&  Growatt  SPH3000~  Growatt  SPH4600,  but  we  don’t  provide  SPH  5000TL  BL-UP  (Growatt 
SPH5000 )and    SPH 6000TL BL-UP(Growatt SPH6000).
