Powerdiverter Model 3X

Use your excess solar to heat your water for free

Powerdiverter automatically sends excess solar power to your electric hot water tank. Your tank stores the heat for later, so you can buy less electricity for hot water.

When there's enough spare solar, you can heat your water without buying electricity from the grid. Using that solar also means giving up any feed-in credit you'd earn by exporting it.

Model 3X

Put your spare solar to work

When your panels are making more power than your home is using, Model 3X sends available spare power to your hot water tank. The tank holds the heat for showers, baths and washing up later.

FLX3

Make the most of your electricity plan

If your plan gives you free or lower-cost hours, FLX3 helps you schedule compatible equipment for those times. Choose FLX3 Water for electric hot water, FLX3 EV for home charging or FLX3 Air for compatible air conditioning.

Check your retailer's times, eligibility and usage conditions.

Two approaches. Different jobs.

Choose solar diversion or scheduled load control to suit your equipment, energy supply and goals.

Powerdiverter

Use available surplus solar.

Powerdiverter diverts available surplus solar into compatible electric storage hot water. The amount depends on your solar surplus, household demand and the hot-water system’s capacity to accept energy.

Paid electricity may still be needed when surplus solar is insufficient. Feed-in income is forgone on diverted energy.

FLX3

Control when loads operate.

FLX3 primarily controls when compatible loads operate. Supported scheduling can help align operation with suitable energy periods, subject to the equipment and installation configuration.

Scheduled switching is not variable solar diversion. Electricity-plan eligibility and conditions must be checked separately.

Explore FLX3

Installation by a licensed electrician is additional. Compatibility, electrical protection and any switchboard work must be assessed for the site.

How much could solar hot water save you?

Illustrative estimates, not guaranteed savings. Free-hours scheduling savings are excluded to avoid double-counting.

$1,932 a year

Based on 12 kWh of hot water use per day, 100% covered by spare solar, with electricity costing 46.1c/kWh and a 2c/kWh solar feed-in rate. Your result depends on how much spare solar your tank can use and what you pay for electricity.

Formula: daily hot-water kWh × 365 × share covered by spare solar × (electricity rate − feed-in rate) ÷ 100. Default inputs are examples, not measured performance. Actual results depend on weather, timing, tank capacity, household demand and installation conditions. Assumes constant rates and usage; excludes financing, maintenance and equipment replacement. Supply charges remain.

Monitoring features depend on configuration

Not fit and hope.
Fit and see the truth.

Explore the Powerdiverter monitoring interface. Available features depend on your hardware and installed configuration. Tank-temperature monitoring requires an optional compatible sensing kit; it is not included in standard hardware pricing.
