The PV Powered™ 100 kW inverter sets the industry standard for high reliability, ease of installation, and lifetime maintainability. Its 20+ year design life is enabled by an array of new market-leading reliability features, including bus bars for all power connections, a sealed electronics module, and an instrumented cooling system. The highly integrated system was designed to save commercial installers time and money with load-rated AC & DC service disconnects, certification for installation without a neutral conductor, cable landing points sized for maximum NEC-compliant cables, and a well-planned cable bending radius for top, bottom, and side cable entry options.
PV Powered commercial inverters offer best-in-class 97.1% efficiency and a voltage window of 295-600 VDC. This is the widest operating range with the lowest standard MPPT voltage of any three-phase inverter in the industry. This provides exceptional stringing capability with all PV modules currently available, including new thin-film modules. Serviceability is enhanced by a modular design that divides the inverter into easy-to-maintain sub-systems. AE backs all its inverters with an industry-leading 10-year warranty and an unprecedented optional 20-year warranty, plus the best service and support team in the business.
