Description
The Fortress Power eSpire Nano FP-Nano-30k-L is a commercial-grade 30 kW three-phase hybrid solar inverter designed for grid-connected solar and battery energy storage systems. Engineered for small to medium-sized commercial installations, the eSpire Nano seamlessly manages solar production, battery storage, and grid interaction while providing intelligent backup power capabilities. Its compact, outdoor-rated design simplifies installation without sacrificing performance.
Supporting 208V, 220V, and 240V three-phase, four-wire (3P4W) electrical systems, the inverter delivers up to 30 kW of continuous AC output (model dependent) and integrates solar PV, battery storage, generators, and the utility grid into one intelligent energy management platform. The integrated APSmart rapid shutdown (RSD) transmitter eliminates the need for a separate transmitter, reducing installation time and system costs
Designed for scalability, the eSpire Nano supports parallel operation of up to six inverters, making it an ideal solution for expanding commercial energy storage systems. Its rugged NEMA 4X enclosure provides superior protection against harsh weather, allowing reliable indoor or outdoor installation. Backed by a 10-year warranty.
