Micro Inverters A micro inverter is a compact module level DC to AC converter used in solar photovoltaic systems. Each unit is installed near a solar module to convert its DC output into AC for connection to the building electrical system. This approach enables independent operation of each panel and simplifies system design. Key benefits Independent module optimization: each panel has its own MPPT, which helps maximize energy harvest in shading or mismatch conditions. Improved system reliability and troubleshooting: failures or underperformance in one panel do not disable the others. Enhanced safety and faster shutdown: module level conversion reduces voltage exposure and supports safe maintenance. Flexible system design: easier to expand or reconfigure layouts without relying on long string connections. Simplified installation: compact, integrated solution with shorter wiring runs and fewer components to manage. Key features Function: converts DC from an individual PV module to gridready AC, enabling permodule operation and monitoring. Compatibility: designed to work with standard solar modules and typical AC grid connections; verify compatibility with local codes and your system design. Size: compact footprint suitable for rooftop mounting and tight installation spaces; lightweight and easy to place near each module. Material: rugged, weatherresistant enclosure built from durable materials to withstand outdoor installation and exposure to the elements. Performance: supports stable module level MPPT and consistent output across a range of operating conditions; includes essential safety features for safe integration with the electrical system. Applications and scenarios Residential rooftop systems with multiple panels: enables each panel to perform independently, improving overall energy yield, especially on partially shaded roofs. Retrofit or upgrade projects: replacing or supplementing a central inverter with micro inverters can improve performance and simplify wiring for existing arrays. Systems with diverse orientations or shading patterns: ideal for rooftops where panels face different directions or receive varying shading, maintaining performance for every module. Installation and care Follow local electrical codes and standards for mounting, wiring, and connection to the AC grid. Use with the appropriate monitoring options as recommended by the manufacturer to track module performance and diagnose issues quickly. Regularly inspect mounting points and enclosure seals to maintain outdoor durability and performance.
