Call us on 1300 024 473 for fantastic long term hire rates.
Description
The PVA-1500S PV Analyzer Kit — V2 is a 1500-volt I-V curve tracer with built-in PV performance modelling and advanced wireless irradiance, temperature and tilt sensing. It provides unprecedented measurement throughput and accuracy and delivers deep insight into the performance of your arrays.
In addition to the 1500V measurement capability, the PVA-1500 has a few extra enhancements over its predecessor, the PVA-1000S, including using WiFi to communicate to your tablet or laptop. This eliminates the USB dongle required for the PVA-1000S. We are now shipping the “V2” version of the PVA-1500 (i.e. “PVA-1500V2”). This second generation of the PVA-1500 product line adds: charging/charged LEDs on the I-V unit and SolSensor, in-the-field firmware upgrade capability so your unit won’t need to return to the factory for new firmware features or patches and more.
PVA Test Leads (included): Alligator clips enable connecting directly to combiner box bus bars.
I-V Data Analysis Tool (included): Excel macro for analysis of populations of curves and data plus report generation.
30A Measurement Capability (included): Measure up to 30A strings. This can be useful for measuring many strings in parallel, for example, when harnessing before the combiner box is employed.
Operation: PVA solmetric software.
