/ The Fronius Galvo is the first Wi-Fi®* enabled, super lightweight residential inverter that disrupts the residential solar
market by providing a list of features never before seen in the solar industry. With the revolutionary Fronius
SnapINverter hinge mounting system, which allows for a single person installation in record time, it is no wonder that
installers are demanding the Fronius Galvo more than any other string inverter currently available. The Fronius Galvo
provides an extra wide voltage window allowing for utmost flexibility in string design.
/ System owners are amazed by the attractive new low-profile design, integrated Wi-Fi®* with included Fronius
Solar.web monitoring portal and Fronius smart phone app, the touch sensitive display, and quiet high-performance.
The new Fronius Galvo creates convenience and sets the industry standard in installation, service and overall ownership.
