SkyBox Off-Grid Series V2 5kVA-10kVA (Victron)
Self contained energy system
SkyBox gives everyone freedom and independence from the power grid.
Balancing power sources and storing excess energy:
SkyBox Off-Grid Series is a self contained energy system with an optional battery, Victron inverter and switches all housed in a custom weatherproof enclosure. SkyBox gives everyone freedom and independence from the power grid. Acting as a central ‘brain,’ the SkyBox manages incoming power from your solar, wind, or hydro generators. Balancing these power sources and storing excess energy in the internal batteries, SkyBox creates a reliable off-grid electricity supply. Since any electrician can install it, you can save thousands compared to installing an off grid solar system, through an off grid installer or provider.
For indoor and outdoor use:
The SkyBox Off-Grid Series is IP54 and designed for both indoor and outdoor use. It is designed to house up to 6x Pylontech US5000-B Rack Mount LiFePO4 Battery Modules (up to 28.8kWh). Because of this, you can enjoy all the luxury of being on the grid while being off the grid! When you want to expand, simply add more batteries to suit your storage requirements. SkyBox protects your home with full off-grid power! Reduce the cost of going off-grid and generate your own energy today.
Since developing the SkyBox, our focus has always been to make the installer’s life as easy as possible to install the SkyBox. With this in mind, we continue to make updates to the SkyBox, which we have detailed below:
1. Addition of an external switchboard. This makes it easier to wire AC connections, including AC out and AC in (generator input). There is no longer a need for cabinet penetrations.
2. Manual changeover switch added. If the inverter fails, it can be bypassed to operate off the generator until a technician arrives to fix it.
3. DC isolators have been added to the side of the box. These were previously supplied separately in the electrical kit for the installer to assemble.
4. Generator Auto start contacts added to the external switchboard. This allows for easier access and wiring.
5. Earth Protection is standard via Victron Multi RS 450/100 MPPT.
6. 4G LTE module and puck added as standard which gives Sky Energy the ability to log in and troubleshoot as required.
7. Fans have been upgraded on all models for better cooling of the components.
8. All SkyBox cabinets have a Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) before being shipped to site.
