GoodWe Lynx Home F 13.10 kWh (PCU base + 4 x LX F3.3-H)
Description
Fanless natural convection engineered for indoor living spaces.
GoodWe GW5K-ET is a 5 kW three-phase hybrid inverter delivering balanced 400 V power in a whisper-quiet, fanless chassis for residential living spaces.
5,000 VA Symmetrical Output
Supplies balanced 400 V power equally across L1, L2, and L3 to satisfy European grid phase-symmetry rules.
Whisper-Quiet Natural Cooling (< 30 dB), 100% fanless heatsink eliminates acoustic hum and mechanical wear near indoor living quarters.
Sub-10 ms Seamless UPS Backup
Internal high-speed switchgear keeps home computers, routers, and essential circuits running during outages.
Low 180 V MPPT Startup
Dual independent channels start early to harvest low-angle morning sunlight from compact 6–8 panel strings.
More product details
Conventional hybrid inverters use active cooling fans that cycle aggressively during high-rate midday battery charging, creating 40–48 dB noise. The GW5K-ET dissipates heat purely through an engineered die-cast aluminum heatsink.
- Certified acoustic emission strictly below 30 dB(A) under continuous full-power 5 kW export and 25 A battery charging.
- Zero mechanical moving parts prevents dust clogging and extends internal capacitor lifespan beyond 15 years.
- IP66 sealed enclosure keeps power electronics isolated from ambient humidity, dust, and insects.

Direct high-voltage battery coupling with 7,500 W solar intake.
Direct high-voltage DC battery pairing (180–600 V) eliminates heavy step-up conversion losses, maximizing round-trip solar storage efficiency across winter and summer seasons. 7,500 W PV input channels surplus midday generation directly into battery storage at up to 25 A continuous rate. Dual independent MPPT trackers track separate East and West roof pitches down to 180 V starting threshold. 5,000 VA continuous three-phase backup sustains essential domestic circuits without external transformers.
Runs 5000 W across three balanced phases
The inverter supplies 5000 W continuous AC power across three 400 V phases. High efficiency of 98.00 percent maximizes harvest from the 7500 W array.
Pairs 180 to 600 V high-voltage storage
A dedicated battery port accepts 180 to 600 V DC. Direct DC storage connection minimizes conversion losses.
Stands outside from minus 35 to plus 60 C
The 24 kg aluminum chassis has an IP66 weather rating. Compact 415 x 516 x 180 mm dimensions suit tight wall spaces.
Technical data
A precision 5 kW energy hub engineered specifically for living-adjacent installations.
Three-phase domestic balance with zero acoustic noise.
Rather than forcing residential rooftops into single-phase compromises that trigger grid unbalance penalties, the GW5K-ET provides clean, balanced three-phase conversion in an ultra-compact 24 kg chassis. It channels up to 7,500 W of solar generation directly into high-voltage storage while delivering 5,000 VA continuous power to domestic circuits with zero fan noise.

Project fit
Where this model fits.
Scenarios that show which projects the GoodWe GW5K-ET belongs in, what to verify before quoting, and when another model is the better pick.
Project scenario
Small DACH Suburban Roofs (5–7.5 kWp) with 3-Phase Grid Mandates
Single-family homes in Germany, Austria, or Switzerland with 12–16 solar panels subject to strict 4.6 kVA single-phase unbalance limits.
Single-phase inverters above 4.6 kVA risk grid export curtailment. Conversely, installing an oversized 10 kW hybrid inverter on a small array forces the unit to operate on the inefficient low end of its curve during light 200–400 W nighttime baselines. The GW5K-ET fulfills 3-phase grid symmetry while keeping nighttime tare losses minimal.

Project scenario
Indoor Living-Adjacent Utility Rooms & Hallway Closets
Properties where the inverter must be wall-mounted inside utility closets, laundry rooms, or basements sharing walls with living quarters.
Active fan-cooled inverters generate 40–48 dB noise during high-rate midday battery charging. The GW5K-ET uses 100% passive natural convection, ensuring dead-silent operation (< 30 dB) under all load conditions.

GoodWe ET Series 5–10 kW Datasheet (EN) GoodWe ET Plus Datasheet (EN) GoodWe ET Plus User Manual (EN)Product questions
What is the minimum panel string length required to stay in MPPT range?
6 to 7 standard panels per string. Because the GW5K-ET operates with an MPPT voltage window of 200–850 V and a starting voltage of 180 V, strings must generate ≥ 200 V even on hot summer afternoons when panel voltage drops due to negative temperature coefficients ($P_{\text{temp}} \approx -0.35\%/\text{°C}$). * With 400W–450W panels ($V_{\text{mp}} \approx 31\text{. }34\text{ V}$): 6 panels in series deliver ~185–200 V in hot weather. 7 panels ensure safe, continuous tracking. * Engineering Warning: Never design strings with only 3 or 4 modules; the inverter will drop out of MPPT tracking during peak summer heat.
Why choose this 5 kW three-phase unit over a 5 kW single-phase inverter?
Automatic grid compliance and native 3-phase equipment support. * Grid Balance Regulations: European grid codes (VDE-AR-N 4105) cap single-phase unbalance at 4.6 kVA. A single-phase 5 kW unit risks grid export curtailment. * Symmetrical Load Distribution: Exports ~7.2 A equally across L1, L2, and L3, eliminating meter phase-imbalance penalties. * 3-Phase Native Backup: Supplies 400 V power directly to 3-phase domestic heat pumps and workshop tools during outages.
Can the 5 kVA backup output start a domestic heat pump during an outage?
Yes for inverter-driven heat pumps; No for fixed-speed compressors. * Modulating / Inverter Heat Pumps ($\le 4\text{ kW}$): Supported. Soft-start circuitry ramps compressor draw gradually within the 5,000 VA limit. * Fixed-Speed On/Off Compressors: Not supported. Direct-on-line starting spikes create locked-rotor currents ($> 30\text{ A}$) that trip the inverter's instantaneous overload protection. For fixed-speed systems, step up to the GW10K-ET.
Why does this inverter require at least two Lynx Home F battery modules?
Voltage floor requirements. The inverter's high-voltage DC battery port requires 180 V minimum. * A single LX F3.3-H module provides only 102.4 V nominal, which cannot start the inverter's internal DC-DC converter. * Stacking 2 modules reaches 204.8 V nominal (182.4–230.4 V operating range), placing the battery safely within the inverter's operating window.
What happens if the battery is drained completely during an extended blackout?
Automated PV black-start restores power at sunrise. The GW5K-ET features autonomous DC black-start: 1. When sunrise illuminates the solar array, the inverter boots up directly from DC string voltage. 2. It prioritizes trickle-charging the battery stack to a safe state-of-charge threshold. 3. Once stable, it automatically re-energizes the AC backup circuits without requiring grid presence or manual rebooting.
