CHINT CPS / NVert PV String Inverter

The CHINT CPS / NVert PV String Inverter is a grid-tied photovoltaic string inverter manufactured by CHINT Power Systems (CPS) — CHINT Group's dedicated solar energy division — covering models from 5 kW to 100 kW in three-phase configuration for commercial, industrial, and utility-scale PV installations. The CPS-SCA-25KTL (25 kW, three-phase) is the most widely deployed commercial rooftop model in Saudi Arabia, combining a maximum DC input voltage of 1100 V, up to 4 MPPT trackers, and peak efficiency of 98.6% with a compact IP65-rated enclosure suitable for outdoor installation in Saudi Arabia's desert environment. The inverter supports the IEEE 1547 and IEC 62116 anti-islanding protection standards required by SEC's grid connection technical requirements (GCTR) for distributed generation connection, and its built-in monitoring module transmits real-time production data via RS-485, Ethernet, and Wi-Fi to CHINT's SolarmanBusiness cloud platform or to third-party SCADA systems via Modbus TCP.

CPS inverters are designed explicitly for high-irradiance, high-temperature environments: the maximum ambient operating temperature is 60°C, the MPPT voltage range extends from 200 V to 1000 V DC to maximise yield during the partial-shading and high-temperature conditions that compress string voltage on Saudi Arabian rooftops and ground-mount arrays during peak summer months. Wide MPPT range also allows flexible stringing configurations, reducing the number of string combiners required in large rooftop arrays and lowering balance-of-system (BoS) installation costs. The night-time standby consumption is below 1 W, and the integrated DC and AC surge protection devices (SPD Class II) protect against the frequent lightning and electrostatic discharge events that occur during Saudi Arabia's spring and autumn dust storm (haboob) season in the Central and Eastern Provinces.

Saudi Arabia's renewable energy drive under Vision 2030 — targeting 58.7 GW of solar by 2030 under the National Renewable Energy Programme (NREP) — is driving rapid growth in commercial and industrial rooftop solar installations across all regions of the Kingdom. ARAMCO's Net Zero by 2050 commitment has triggered substantial rooftop PV programmes across its residential cities in the Eastern Province, with string inverters in the 20–30 kW class dominating the rooftop scale. SABIC's industrial facilities in Jubail and Yanbu are installing rooftop and carport PV arrays under internal sustainability programmes, and NWC is beginning to deploy solar on its pumping station rooftops to offset electricity consumption costs. In the commercial sector, retail malls, logistics warehouses, and industrial facilities across Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, and Mecca are retrofitting rooftops with PV systems under power purchase agreements (PPAs) arranged through Saudi developers and energy services companies. The CPS string inverter family competes directly with SMA, Sungrow, and Huawei in all these segments, with SASO approval and SEC GCTR compliance as standard.

Razz Middle East is the Saudi authorised distributor for CHINT CPS string inverters, stocking the 20 kW, 25 kW, 33 kW, and 50 kW three-phase models for delivery across the Kingdom. We provide full SEC GCTR connection documentation support, assist with NREP subsidy application paperwork, and can connect EPC contractors with CHINT's regional commissioning engineers for system startup, monitoring platform setup, and ongoing performance reporting. SAR pricing is issued within 4 hours of inquiry for projects in Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, Al Khobar, Jubail, Yanbu, Mecca, Medina, and NEOM.
