Enphase®Microinverters Enphase® M250 6. likg 5. The Enphase® M250 Microinverter delivers increased energy harvest and reduces design and installation complexity with its all-AC approach. With the M250, the DC circuit is isolated and insulated from ground, so no Ground Electrode Conductor (GEC) is required for the microinverter. This further simplifies installation, enhances safety, and saves on labor and materials costs. The Enphase M250 integrates seamlessly with the Engage® Cable, the Envoy® Communications Gateway', and Enlighten®, Enphase's monitoring and analysis software. PRODUCTIVE SIMPLE RELIABLE - Optimized for higher-power - No GEC needed for microinverter - 4th-generation product modules - No DC design or string calculation - More than 1 million hours of testing - Maximizes energy production required and 3 million units shipped - Minimizes impact of shading, - Easy installation with Engage - Industry-leading warranty, up to 25 dust, and debris Cable years Eel enphase® a ENERGY C US Enphase®M250 Microinverter/7 DATA INPUT DATA (DC) M250-60-2LL-S22/S23/S24 Recommended input power(STC) 210-300 W Maximum input DC voltage 48 V Peak power tracking voltage 27 V-39 V Operating range 16 V-48 V Min/Max start voltage 22 V/48 V Max DC short circuit current 15 A Max input current 9.8 A OUTPUT DATA (AC) @208 VAC @240 VAC Peak output power 250 W 250 W Rated(continuous)output power 240 W 240 W Nominal output current 1.15 A(A rms at nominal duration) 1.0 A(A rms at nominal duration) Nominal voltage/range 208 V/183-229 V 240 V/211-264 V Nominal frequency/range 60.0/57-61 Hz 60.0/57-61 Hz Extended frequency range* 57-62.5 Hz 57-62.5 Hz Power factor >0.95 >0.95 Maximum units per 20 A branch circuit 24(three phase) 16(single phase) Maximum output fault current 850 mA rms for 6 cycles 850 mA rms for 6 cycles EFFICIENCY CEC weighted efficiency, 240 VAC 96.5% CEC weighted efficiency, 208 VAC 96.0% Peak inverter efficiency 96.5% Static MPPT efficiency(weighted, reference EN50530) 99.4 % Night time power consumption 65 mW max MECHANICAL DATA Ambient temperature range -40°C to+65°C Operating temperature range(internal) -40°C to+85°C Dimensions(WxHxD) 171 mm x 173 mm x 30 mm(without mounting bracket) Weight 2.0 kg Cooling Natural convection- No fans Enclosure environmental rating Outdoor- NEMA 6 FEATURES Compatibility Compatible with 60-cell PV modules.
