High Performance for Modern Solar Panels
The IQ9N has been specifically developed to maximise the output of today's high-power photovoltaic modules. Supporting solar panels up to 600W DC input, it delivers outstanding energy production while maintaining excellent conversion efficiency of 97.95%.
Its advanced MPPT technology continually tracks the optimum operating point of each panel, helping maximise energy yield even when modules are affected by shading, dirt or varying roof orientations.
Fast & Simple Installation
Designed with installers in mind, the IQ9N is compact, lightweight and easy to fit.
Features include:
- Integrated Stäubli MC4 DC connectors
- Simple plug-and-play IQ AC cabling
- Compact design (214 × 176 × 30.8mm)
- Lightweight construction (1.1kg)
- Faster firmware updates using the latest integrated circuit technology
The result is quicker installation times and reduced labour costs.
Proven Enphase Reliability
Enphase microinverters are renowned for long-term reliability, and the IQ9N continues this tradition.
Benefits include:
- Over 1 million hours of reliability testing
- Advanced Burst Mode™ technology for improved low-light energy production
- Low-voltage DC architecture for enhanced safety
- Integrated Rapid Shutdown functionality
- Fully sealed IP67 enclosure for harsh outdoor environments
Flexible System Compatibility
The IQ9N works with virtually all modern PV module technologies provided the panel remains within the inverter's electrical limits:
-
Maximum DC input power: 600W
-
Maximum input voltage: 60V
-
MPPT operating range: 28–45V
-
Start-up voltage: 21V
It can be added to existing IQ7 or IQ8 systems using the same IQ Gateway, making it easy to expand an existing Enphase installation without replacing your current equipment.
Please Note:
- IQ9N microinverters can be added to existing IQ7 or IQ8 systems.
- IQ7 or IQ8 microinverters cannot be added to installations already using IQ9N microinverters on the same IQ Gateway.
- Where the combined peak PV output exceeds Enphase off-grid design limits (150% with mixed IQ7/IQ8/IQ9N systems or 200% with IQ8/IQ9N systems), PV shedding must be implemented for off-grid operation.
Refer to the Enphase compatibility calculator and technical datasheet to verify panel compatibility.
