Hey, if you’re building a robust solar power system for a Kenyan home, small business, or school and need an inverter that can take a real beating from heavy appliances, the TBB Matrix II 10kVA hybrid inverteris one of those trusted workhorses that installers here love. This 10 kVA (8 kW continuous) pure sine wave unit uses a proper low-frequency toroidal transformer, so it handles massive surges—up to 3× for pumps, welders, or air-cons—without blinking, way better than cheaper high-frequency ones that struggle with inductive loads. Fully hybrid, it smartly uses solar first, then batteries, then grid or generator as fallback, with seamless switching so your lights never flicker during Kenya Power outages. Comes with the WiFi dongle included for easy monitoring on your phone via the TBB app, a built-in 120A MPPT charger (up to 6000 W solar input), and you can parallel up to 9 units for bigger setups or three-phase. Steel body, intelligent cooling, and built tough for hot, dusty Kenyan conditions—many folks in Nairobi, Kisumu, and rural areas rely on it because it just keeps running year after year.
TBB Matrix II 10kVA hybrid inverter Key Features
- True Low-Frequency Toroidal Design: Heavy-duty transformer gives 3× surge (24 kW) for starting big motors, compressors, or pumps—perfect for Kenyan homes with borehole pumps or fridges.
- Smart Hybrid Management: Prioritises solar → battery → grid/generator with programmable charge profiles for lithium or lead-acid; <10 ms transfer time for UPS-like performance.
- Powerful Built-in MPPT: 120A solar charger supports up to 6000 W PV array (60-145 V MPPT range) for flexible panel configurations under Kenyan sun.
- WiFi Monitoring Included: Plug-in dongle + TBB app lets you watch power flow, set schedules, or get alerts from anywhere in Kenya—no extra cost.
- Parallel & Scalable: Up to 9 units in single or three-phase (90 kVA total), great for growing homes or small factories.
- Rugged for Local Conditions: Steel enclosure, smart fan cooling, full protections (overload, short-circuit, over-temp, low battery), and works reliably in high heat/dust.
