The Gietron SPH Hybrid Inverter (SPH 8000TL-HU-US and SPH 10000TL-HU-US), powered by Growatt, is the energy heart of a modern Canadian home or business. One intelligent inverter orchestrates solar panels, modular battery storage, the grid, and even a backup generator — converting and directing power wherever it delivers the most value. Paired with stackable 48 V battery systems, storage capacity scales to match each home, from essential-loads backup to true whole-home coverage. And when the grid goes down, the SPH switches to battery power in under 10 milliseconds: fast enough that your lights, fridge, furnace fan, and computers never notice.
Available in 8 kW and 10 kW split-phase models (120/240 V), the SPH achieves 98.1% peak efficiency, 97% CEC weighted efficiency, and ≥99.9% MPPT tracking accuracy across three independent MPPTs. With a DC/AC ratio of up to 1.5 and up to 200 A of battery charge/discharge current, it harvests more energy by day and delivers serious backup power by night. The IP65 / NEMA 4 enclosure is rated from –25°C to +60°C — engineered for outdoor installation in real Canadian conditions, from coast to coast.
Each unit supports DC-coupled, AC-coupled, and AC-retrofit configurations, works with both lithium and lead-acid batteries, and accepts diesel or gas generator input — making it equally at home in a new net-zero build, an existing rooftop solar retrofit, or a rural property that can’t count on the grid. Built-in WiFi with optional 4G keeps the system connected to a free monitoring platform for real-time data and remote firmware updates. CSA C22.2 and UL 1741 SA/SB certified, and backed by a 10-year warranty.

Designed for Real-World Solar & Storage Projects
• DC-coupled, AC-coupled, or AC-retrofit — one inverter for new installations, existing solar retrofits, and everything in between, giving installers a single platform to learn, stock, and service
• Three independent MPPTs — real rooftops have multiple orientations, dormers, and shading; three trackers (1.5 DC/AC oversizing allowed) maximise harvest on the roofs Canadians actually have
• Whole-home backup with <10 ms transfer — UPS-level switchover keeps critical loads, well pumps, sump pumps, and home offices running through outages without a flicker
• Up to 200 A charge/discharge current — rapid battery recovery after an outage and full-power delivery when the home needs it most
• Generator-ready — accepts diesel and gas generator input with smart charger priority control, ideal for rural properties, farms, and cottages beyond reliable grid service
• Scalable by design — modular battery stacks grow with the household’s needs, and up to six inverters can run in parallel (or form a 208 V three-phase system) for larger homes and light commercial sites
• Built-in breakers and Type II surge protection (DC & AC) — fewer external components, cleaner installations, lower balance-of-system cost
Built for the Canadian Climate
Backup power isn’t a luxury in Canada — between ice storms, wildfire seasons, and long rural feeder lines, it’s a plan. The SPH is sealed to IP65 / NEMA 4 for outdoor installation, operates from –25°C to +60°C, and carries CSA C22.2 certification alongside UL 1741 SA/SB and IEEE 1547 compliance for grid interconnection across North America. Its native 120/240 V split-phase output matches standard Canadian residential service — no external transformer, no workarounds. For homeowners, that means a system that keeps the heat on and the freezer cold when the grid can’t. For installers, it means one inverter that passes inspection and performs year-round, in every Canadian climate zone.
Monitoring & Smart Energy Management
Every SPH connects via built-in WiFi to a free monitoring platform, giving system owners real-time visibility into solar production, battery state of charge, and energy flows — from anywhere. Time-of-use scheduling lets homeowners charge from solar or off-peak grid power and discharge during expensive peak windows. Installers and service teams benefit from remote diagnostics and over-the-air firmware updates, reducing truck rolls and keeping every system current.
10-Year Warranty
The SPH Hybrid Inverter is backed by a 10-year warranty and certifications including CSA C22.2, UL 1741 SA/SB, and IEEE 1547. Combined with Gietron’s Canadian-based support, system owners get long-term peace of mind — and installers and distributors get a product they can stand behind with confidence.
