With the 80L hybrid water boiler from Fothermo (MPN PVB-80-AC), you can generate your hot water using sustainable and cost-effective solar power. Connecting the solar modules takes just a few seconds via plug-and-play and provides you with a reliable hot water supply. Unlike the standard 80-liter Fothermo off-grid boiler, the hybrid version allows for supplementary heating via the 230V power grid. Due to the low voltage level of less than 50V, no licensed electrician is required for installation
Product Highlights
- 80-liter photovoltaic hybrid boiler
- Hot water for the sink, shower, or kitchen
- No connection to the power grid required
- Innovative MPP tracker
- Complete system with MC4 PV connectors
- No professional installation required
- Digital temperature display
- 1/2” water connection on the water heater
- Plug and play
The boilers operate at a power output of up to 1500W. If desired, there is also the option of supplementary heating via the existing heating system. Installation is straightforward, similar to that of conventional storage water heaters. A vacuum relief valve and check valve are also included to ensure maximum safety.
1500W supplementary heating
The Fothermo Hybrid Boiler offers a smart solution for situations where solar energy is insufficient to heat the water for an extended period. Using the 230 V backup heating system with an adjustable dial, a minimum temperature can be set, e.g., 35°C. If the water temperature drops below this value, the boiler is automatically reheated with 1,500 W of power from the grid until the minimum temperature is reached again. The boiler has a maximum water temperature of 65°C and, when fully heated, can provide approximately 72 liters of 34°C water for showers (for a 30-liter boiler) or 180 liters for the 80-liter boiler.
Integrated MPP Tracker
The innovative MPP tracker increases the yield of your photovoltaic system by up to 50% by always ensuring the optimal operating point of the connected PV modules.
