Fox ESS KH7 7kW Single-Phase Hybrid Inverter
The Fox ESS KH7 is a 7 kW single-phase hybrid solar inverter from Fox ESS's K-Series — engineered for larger domestic and light-commercial solar installations that demand serious performance. With three independent MPPT trackers, a maximum 15 kWp array capacity and a 600 V DC input ceiling, the KH7 is designed to extract maximum yield even from complex or shaded roof layouts. The inverter is fully compatible with Fox ESS's high-voltage lithium-ion battery range — including the ECS, HV2600, MIRA HV25 and EP series — enabling storage systems of up to 33.24 kWh by connecting up to seven batteries in series. An integrated EPS (Emergency Power Supply) function maintains power to critical loads during grid outages, switching in under 6 milliseconds with no reduction in output power. The fanless natural-cooling design keeps noise below 30 dB, the IP65 housing suits both indoor and outdoor wall installation, and the FoxCloud V2.0 monitoring platform provides real-time visibility via smartphone app or web portal. G99-certified for UK grid connection and MCS-compatible, the KH7 is a solid specification choice for any accredited solar and storage installer.

⚠️ Installer Requirement — MCS & Electrical Qualification
The Fox ESS KH7 must be installed by a competent, appropriately qualified electrical installer. For grid-connected solar PV systems in the UK, the installation must be carried out by an MCS-certified installer to ensure compliance with G99 grid-connection requirements and to qualify for the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG). All AC wiring must comply with BS 7671 (18th Edition IET Wiring Regulations). The KH7 carries G99 / EN50549 certification confirming it meets UK and European grid-connection standards. Where the inverter replaces an existing unit, the entire installation must be reassessed and re-notified as applicable.
⚡ Important: This Is a Hybrid Inverter, Not a Battery Retrofit Add-On
The KH7 is a combined solar inverter and battery storage controller. It accepts DC strings directly from solar panels via its three MPPT inputs and replaces any existing string inverter — it is not an AC-coupled retrofit device. For adding battery storage to an existing solar system without replacing the current inverter, consider the Fox ESS KA7 (AC-coupled version). The KH7 requires a CT clamp (supplied) to monitor grid import/export; a Modbus energy meter (optional accessory) is recommended when the distance from inverter to grid supply exceeds 30 metres. A second CT clamp is required if an additional generation source (e.g. wind turbine) is also connected.
☀️ SEG & FoxCloud: Monitoring & Export Made Simple
When installed by an MCS-certified installer, the KH7 qualifies for Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) payments on exported solar energy. The FoxCloud V2.0 monitoring portal provides comprehensive real-time and historical data — PV generation, battery state of charge, grid import/export and self-consumption — accessible via the Fox ESS smartphone app or browser. WiFi connectivity is included in the box; optional 4G and LAN dongles are available for sites without reliable WiFi. The KH7 also supports parallel operation of up to ten units for high-demand applications.
Key Features & Engineering Detail
🔆
Three Independent MPPTs — More Power from Complex Arrays
Three separate MPPT trackers, each accepting up to 16 A input current and spanning 80–500 V, allow strings on different roof orientations or with independent shading profiles to be optimised independently. This avoids the yield losses that arise when mismatched strings share a single tracker — maximising annual generation from non-ideal roof configurations.
🔋
High-Voltage Battery Architecture — Superior Round-Trip Efficiency
Operating at a recommended battery voltage of 300 V (range 85–480 V), the KH7's high-voltage design minimises resistive losses during charging and discharging. PV-to-battery charge efficiency reaches 98.5% and battery-to-AC discharge efficiency 97%, meaning very little stored energy is lost as heat — a meaningful advantage over lower-voltage systems over a battery's lifetime.
🌐
FoxCloud V2.0 with Live EPS Monitoring
The FoxCloud V2.0 platform delivers real-time system monitoring including PV production, battery state of charge, grid power flows and load consumption. During EPS events, the cloud platform logs outage detail. The included WiFi dongle means connectivity is available from day one; 4G and LAN options cover challenging site environments.
⚡
Sub-6 ms EPS Switchover — Uninterrupted Power for Critical Loads
The KH7's integrated Emergency Power Supply (EPS) detects grid loss and switches to battery supply in under 6 milliseconds — fast enough to prevent most sensitive electronics from resetting. EPS continuous output is the full 7 kVA with a 14 kW, 60-second peak to handle motor start-up surges. The inverter's output power is unchanged between normal and EPS modes.
🔇
Fanless Natural Cooling — Quiet, Reliable, Low Maintenance
Unlike many comparable inverters, the KH7 uses natural convection cooling with no moving parts — resulting in below 30 dB typical noise (quieter than a library). Eliminating the fan removes the most common point of mechanical failure in inverters, improving long-term reliability and reducing the likelihood of performance degradation over the inverter's service life.
📡
Parallel-Ready Up to 10 Units — Future-Proof Scalability
The KH7 supports parallel operation of up to ten inverters, making it appropriate for large single-phase loads that would otherwise require a three-phase solution, or for phased system expansion as demand grows. Battery expansion is equally straightforward: up to seven battery modules can be connected in series, building a storage system up to 33.24 kWh without any additional hardware changes.
