AdvAntAges oF mi systems

• The best PV levelized cost of electricity (lCoE) / total cost of ownership (tco) in comparison with power optimizers and string inverters.

• up to 20 % higher energy yield compared to string inverters due to individual panel level shading optimization.

• no single point of failure. in case of one inverter's malfunction, the others continue generating energy.

• low service cost, since inverters are simply exchanged in case of failure.

• Modularly built-up system. it can be enlarged gradually in time.

• wireless monitoring and control. each panel's performance can be examined and controlled through standard wmBus communication.

• simple and cost effective installation. no high dc voltage on roof. simple 230v Ac uL and vde approved, iP67 rated, uv resistant t connection cables used for inverter interconnections.

• safety: •Whenoperating,onlyalowDCvoltage (up to 50v) is present on the roof. •Intheeventoffireandotherhazards inverters will switch off in max 2 seconds.

• Longlife-time without maintenance (25 years).

• micro-grid suitable technology.

• suitable for off-grid applications with energy storage.

FeAtures

• reactive power control. dynamic power factor regulation.

• Power factor options: •Unity(1), •Fixeddown to 0.8, capacitive/ inductive, •Dynamicaccordingtopoweror grid voltage.

• very low power needed to start the inverter (< 2w).

• Foil capacitors are used, allowing very long lifetime (25 years) and high mtBF values (up to 600 years mtBF).

• electronics is designed with automotive standard components, ensuring easy implementation of automated production with automotive quality and traceability.

• compact waterproof design.

• internet access to panel data through the communitation gateway (wiFi, ethernet gateway with embbeded web server). the desired real power and power factor can also be set through the communitation gateway allowing dynamic control of micro grid performances and adaptation to every grid quality.

• extremely precise mPPt algorithm.

• very low panel's dc ripple current (50 mA).

• high efficiency.

• integrated iPs (interface Protection system) /Anti-islanding Protection.

• optional: parallel connection of two solar panels each with peak power up to140WandmaxDCinputvoltageup to 60 v (double dc connector).

• suitable for 60 and 72-cell panels up to310Wp.
