Detailed Desription

Enphase’s seventh-generation microinverters are powered by our unique software-defined architecture, offering an efficient design with a single hardware SKU worldwide. The IQ 7 Micro series (IQ7-60-2-US and IQ7PLUS-72-2-US) produces 4% more power, and is 19% lighter and 17% smaller than the IQ 6 series.

The IQ 7 continues to offer the same ease of installation with revolutionary 2-wire cabling. It also leverages semiconductor integration for higher reliability and better economies of scale. With the IQ 7 series, Enphase also introduces the Enphase IQ 7X, a 320-watt, high-power microinverter built for 96-cell modules.

The high-powered smart grid-ready Enphase IQ 7 Micro and Enphase IQ 7+ Micro dramatically simplify the installation process while achieving the highest system efficiency.

Part of the Enphase IQ System, the IQ 7 and IQ 7+ Microinverters integrate seamlessly with the Enphase IQ Envoy, Enphase Q Aggregator, Enphase IQ Battery™, and the Enphase Enlighten monitoring and analysis software. IQ Series Microinverters extend the reliability standards set forth by previous generations and undergo over a million hours of power-on testing, enabling Enphase to provide an industry-leading warranty of up to 25 years.
