Israeli inverter producer SolarEdge unveiled two new energy optimizers for residential and industrial PV techniques at Intersolar Europe this week in Munich, Germany.
“Within the residential section, the corporate launched the S500A energy optimizer for brief strings,” stated SolarEdge. “This new product permits for a cost-efficient design of smaller rooftop techniques with greater energy modules. Following the rising demand for greater energy modules all through the market in In Europe, the S500A can be utilized in techniques with a minimal of six modules utilizing the SolarEdge house brief string three section inverter and the SolarEdge house single section wave/hub inverter, or 10 modules utilizing any SolarEdge residential three section inverter.
The S500A has a rated enter DC energy of 500 W with a most effectivity of 99.5% and a weighted effectivity of 98.6%. The size of the S500A are 129 mm x 165 mm x 45 mm, and it weighs 790 g.
“For the industrial and industrial (C&I) section, the corporate launched the two:1 S1400 energy optimizer for high-input, bifacial, and high-power 700W modules, together with G12 modules,” stated SolarEdge. “The elevated output now permits the PV system to be designed with fewer, however extra highly effective strings, leading to a median of round 30% discount within the DC steadiness of the system prices.”
The S1400 has a rated enter DC energy of 1.4 kW with a most effectivity of 99.5% and a weighted effectivity of 98.8%. The size of the S1400 are 129 mm x 155 mm x 52 mm, and it weighs 1.087 kg. The machine is designed to attach two PV modules in collection and has a 25-year guarantee. The optimizers have an IP68 enclosure and assist a most system voltage of 1,000 V.
“The 2 new energy optimizers embody SolarEdge’s multi-layered suite of security options,” the producer acknowledged. “The SafeDCTM function permits the DC voltage of PV techniques to be routinely diminished to touch-safe ranges (1V DC per module), in grid failures or when the inverter is shut down. The Speedy Shutdown function allows installers can activate SafeDCTM on the flip of a swap, which can discharge the conductors to a secure voltage degree in simply 30 seconds.
