PIKO CI – Ideal for commercial systems and large-scale projects.
The new KOSTAL PIKO CI inverter delivers efficiency and safety, both for megawatt-scale projects and commercial systems.
The PIKO CI is the perfect inverter for every business. The the three available models provide reliable solutions for for any system size. Thanks to the new integrated The Smart AC Switch can replace the main switch (circuit breaker). AC. The PIKO CI is designed for the requirements of professional photovoltaic systems and offers many options for system sizing, while the high efficiency provides extremely high production. The optimal protection against dust and water (IP65), the making it ideal for harsh outdoor use. It operates according to the applicable low and medium voltage regulations, for its approved operation in European countries. It uses modern technology and offers easy and communication via smartphone app and WLAN. The monitoring of inputs provides complete safety and easy service.
