FLUKE Solmeric PV Analyser High Efficiency IV Curve Tracer
The Solmeric PVA-1500 is a cutting-edge I-V curve tracer kit allowing for immediate identification of potential issues and by pinpointing problems early, you can maximise your solar energy production and minimise downtime.
I-V curve testing is the most complete solar module performance measurement. Quick analysis of curve datasets aids in detecting outliers, and the stored data functions as a baseline for future performance inquiries.
The PVA-1500HE2 is suited to advanced High Efficiency PV Testing Capabilities!
Accurate measurement of high efficiency modules up to 30A: Highly efficient modules (>19% module efficiency) possess high capacitance, posing a challenge for some I-V curve tracers that may not be able to measure them. The PVA-1500HE2 is uniquely designed to measure all string types, even those with high efficiency modules, up to 30A. Rapid performance in high temperature environments: The PVA-1500HE2 operates with a swift sweep-to-sweep delay of 9 seconds (at Voc < 1350V). This results in the ability to measure 3.5 MW within an hour, even in high-temperature settings where standard curve tracers often fail due to overheating.
PVA-1500HE2 is perfect for:
- Commissioning
- Operations and maintenance
- Auditing
- Troubleshooting
