Data from official source

MARSTEK Saturn B2500-D is a battery that sits between the panels and the microinverter: the panels connect to two inputs on its body, and a separate output carries DC current to the microinverter, which converts it for the home grid. It has no inverter of its own, so it always needs to be paired with a microinverter, bought separately or in the same bundle.

More units can be chained: with a single-PV-input microinverter up to 2 units, while 3 or 4 units need microinverters with two or four PV inputs. The case has an IP65 protection rating and sits on the ground on the balcony, to be raised if the floor floods often. First setup goes through the app, over Bluetooth, to connect it to the home Wi-Fi.

Which documents this page rests on

The rest of the data comes from 2 pages on the manufacturer's site, cited row by row in the table above.

A manual or a datasheet counts as a source even when the original file is hosted elsewhere: what matters is the document, not the server. Where that happens, it is stated above.

03 · Summary

Pros and cons

In favour

  • Several units can be chained: up to 2 with a single-PV-input microinverter, 3 or 4 with microinverters with two or four PV inputs.
  • The IP65 protection rating allows keeping it on the balcony, outdoors.
  • Two independent solar inputs: two panels with different orientations don't hold each other back.
  • It slots in between the panels and the microinverter of a balcony system.

Worth knowing

  • It has no inverter of its own: a paired microinverter is needed, bought separately or in a bundle.
  • First setup has to go through the app, over Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.
  • If the balcony floods often, it has to be raised off the floor.
