PSW-H (3 kW/5 kW)
Any-Grid
TM
Hybrid Inverter Charger
Flexible, advanced features with options to solve many common
challenges in the field
Integrated high-voltage MPPT charge controller. The high-voltage
PV connection means in most scenarios the PV modules can simply
be connected in series, avoiding costly combiner boxes and string
fuses or diodes, thus reducing total system cost
Integrated AC battery charger
Charge controller functions even if inverter is turned off to keep
batteries fully charged
Compatible with LiFePO4 (lithium iron phosphate) batteries
Functions without an expensive battery to reduce energy
consumption from the grid with minimal investment
Detachable display / communication unit with 6 LEDs and an
intuitive LCD screen
High level of connectivity: BLE, USB-OTG (on-the-go), RS-485, RS-232,
relay for generator start
Datalogger with up to 60 days of data storage
Store or load parameters via USB for quick configuration
Integrated buzzer for error indications
Galvanic isolation of battery allows positive or negative grounding
Up to 9 inverters can be connected in parallel or 3-phase for up to
45 kW of synchronized AC power
Removable filter reduces dust buildup in the inverter
Product Features
Technical Drawing
The Phocos Any-Grid
TM
PSW-H Inverter Charger Series (Pure Sine
Wave Hybrid) represents Phocos’ most versatile line of inverters/
chargers. Flexibility and reliability are key characteristics of this
product line, with a strong potential for cost saving opportunities
in real world conditions. The PSW-H converts DC (Direct Current)
energy into AC (Alternating Current), with multiple advantages
beyond standard inverters. This product includes an integrated
MPPT charge controller and can function as an AC to DC battery
charger, which provides flexible energy access solutions in a broad
range of applications.
The battery can be charged from solar and/or an AC source (public
grid or generator), with easily programmable priorities. The PSW-H
can function without an AC source or alternatively even without
solar, as a pure uninterruptible power supply (UPS). When the utility
grid or AC generator fails, the PSW-H immediately switches to ‘Off-
Grid’ mode within 10 ms (typical, in UPS mode) to securely power
the loads at all times. Solar can be set as the priority energy source
to save electricity costs.
The Any-Grid PSW-H can function in a battery-free mode. In
this mode, for installations with stable public grids, grid energy
consumption can be reduced without the need to invest in a costly
battery bank. Additionally, power can be supplied directly to loads
from the grid and solar simultaneously.
This unit comes with a quality, integrated MPPT charge controller.
The controller accepts particularly high PV voltages, allowing many
PV modules to be connected in series, decreasing installation cost
and avoiding combiner boxes. Up to 9 inverters can be connected
in parallel or 3-phase for up to 45 kW of synchronized AC power.

Any-Grid (O-Grid and/or On-Grid) Capability
What is Any-Grid?
Traditionally, the energy industry defines power systems relative to their access to the grid as Off-Grid or On-Grid. At
Phocos, we believe energy access should be available under ‘Any-Grid’ conditions whether you have full or partial access
to renewable energy and/or grid power, and if energy sources are unreliable. The Phocos Any-Grid Hybrid Inverter
Charger Series provides flexible energy access solutions that optimize the use of locally available energy resources that
can adapt as access to resources changes over time.
