Deye SUN18 20 22 23 25KG05
Five capacity variants share this Deye designation — 18, 20, 22, 23 and 25 — and the datasheet figures recorded here belong to the 20 kW unit, rated at 20,000 W nominal and 22,000 W maximum AC output. All are three-phase string inverters aimed at commercial rooftops and small ground-mount arrays.
Conversion losses stay low: 98.5% peak efficiency and 98.0% European efficiency, with total harmonic distortion held to 3%. Two MPPT channels track from 200 V to 1,000 V and accept up to 26 A each, under a 1,100 V ceiling on DC input, so long strings and mismatched roof planes can be combined on a single unit.
Output is 220/380 V or 230/400 V at 50/60 Hz, and the non-isolated topology keeps the chassis down to 20 kg. An IP65 enclosure and a -25 °C to +60 °C operating window suit outdoor wall mounting in most climates.

Frequently asked questions
How much power does the Deye SUN18-20-22-23-25KG05 deliver?
The Deye SUN18-20-22-23-25KG05 designation covers a family of three-phase inverters rated from 18 kW up to 25 kW, so the exact output depends on the variant ordered. The figures recorded for this entry are 20,000 W of nominal AC power with a 22,000 W maximum, which suits a commercial array of roughly that size.
Is the Deye SUN18-20-22-23-25KG05 single-phase or three-phase?
The Deye SUN18-20-22-23-25KG05 is a three-phase inverter, listed for 220/380 V or 230/400 V grids at either 50 or 60 Hz, so it needs a three-phase connection rather than an ordinary domestic single-phase supply. Total harmonic distortion is quoted at 3 percent, which keeps the injected current within the limits utilities normally expect.
What does the 200-1000 V MPPT range of the Deye SUN18-20-22-23-25KG05 mean for string design?
The Deye SUN18-20-22-23-25KG05 tracks between 200 V and 1000 V and withstands 1100 V of maximum DC input voltage. Every string must therefore stay above 200 V on a hot afternoon and below 1100 V at the coldest expected dawn. That wide window allows long strings, which cuts DC cabling and combiner work on large roofs.
How many MPPT channels does the Deye SUN18-20-22-23-25KG05 have?
The Deye SUN18-20-22-23-25KG05 has two independent MPPT channels, each accepting up to 26 A of DC input current. Two trackers let two roof planes with different orientation or shading be optimised separately, and 26 A per channel leaves headroom to parallel more than one string of current-dense modern modules.
How efficient is the Deye SUN18-20-22-23-25KG05?
The Deye SUN18-20-22-23-25KG05 is rated at 98.5 percent maximum efficiency and 98.0 percent European efficiency, the weighted figure that reflects a realistic mix of partial and full load. In practice around two percent of the DC energy the array produces is lost in conversion, which is at the strong end for a three-phase string inverter.
Can the Deye SUN18-20-22-23-25KG05 be mounted outdoors?
The Deye SUN18-20-22-23-25KG05 carries an IP65 rating and an operating temperature range of -25 to +60 degrees Celsius, so it can be wall-mounted outdoors, ideally out of direct midday sun. At 20 kg it is a two-person lift onto its bracket, and its non-isolated topology means no internal transformer adds to that weight.
