It looks like it should based on EcoFlow's website and https://uscode.house.go
It seems like the requirements are that it has to be a new purchase and at least 3 kilowatt hours. There's also something about being 'installed' but for something like this, I would assume that means you can just roll it in a room and plug something into it for it to be 'installed'. That seems too easy though.

The US code doesn't go into detail beyond "installed in connection with a dwelling unit". I'm not a tax advisor, but I interpret that to mean that it needs to be able to energize the permanently installed circuits in a house - by way of a generator inlet, transfer switch, or some other means.
An electric toothbrush isn't "installed" when it charges from an AC outlet, and a 10 Ah power bank isn't "installed" when it charges a phone that might otherwise be charged from a wall outlet.
If I claimed the credit I would make sure to keep all the receipts and document the installation (photographs etc) in case you need to explain later on.
I get confused when it comes to the watts and solar charging to know how much solar wattage I would need to essentially be able to run off this thing around the clock (if possible).

Air conditioning is typically AC only, newer RV fridges are DC only but some operate off of AC or DC
8-10 cu ft DC fridge use ~1 kWh/day
13k BTU air conditioner uses ~1.5 kWh/hour
Let's say you want to run the A/C for four hours during the day and for two hours at night
Plus lights, water pump, microwave, TV, fans, etc - call that another 2 kWh
So in this example you need ~12 kWh solar energy per day, and ~4 kWh storage overnight. (Without AC you're talking about 3 kWh per day and 1 kWh overnight .. much easier)
Delta Pro is limited by solar input 1.6 kW, realistically in a fully populated flat panel configuration you might expect no more than 5 kWh per day. Running a lot of A/C is going to take a beefier system.
Take a look at this calculator for an example based on expected usage.
