HIT® AC Series Advantage
More power from every roof
An Enphase IQ 7X microinverter with Individual MPPT (Module-level
Power Point Tracker) is integrated with HIT
technology to deliver maximum power production from every roof size
and shape. The result is the HIT® AC Series, offering extreme efficiency
and high power output for residential solar systems.
Easy to Install
No inverter installation and no DC wire management required.
The built-in microinverter is factory mounted on the module, saving
installation time, labor and money.
Simple Logistics
The Enphase IQ 7X recesses into the frame of the module, saving
storage space, reducing trips up the ladder, and simplifying the
purchasing process.
®
high efficiency solar
Lower operations and maintenance (O&M) costs
Each microinverter is field-replaceable without the need to replace the
entire solar module. The operation and maintenance costs savings help
maximize the ROI on your home solar system.
High Efficiency at High Temperatures
Where most modules weaken and underperform in hot summer
temperatures, HIT
®
AC Series outperforms like no other module.
Our industry-low temperature coefficient of -0.258%/° generates
more solar power than competing models on the warmest days.
25-year TripleGuard warranty provides complete system protection
Backed by one of America’s longest-standing brands, our
comprehensive module warranty covers performance, workmanship
and parts for 25 years. Our guaranteed minimum 90.76% rated power
output after 25 years means you’ll produce more electricity
and save more money year after year.
