ABB PVI-10.0/12.5-TL-OUTD 10 to 12.5 kW

Solar inverters  ABB string inverters PVI-10.0/12.5-TL-OUTD 10 to 12.5 kW Designed for commercial usage, this PVI-10/12.5, three-phase inverter is highly unique in its ability to control the performance of the PV panels, especially during periods of variable weather conditions.  The high speed and precise Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithm provides real-time power tracking and improved energy harvesting. Two independent MPPTs and efficiency ratings up to 97.8%  This transformerless device has two independent MPPTs and efficiency ratings of up to 97.8%.  Flat efficiency curves ensure high efficiency at all output levels ensuring consistent and stable performance across the entire input voltage and output power range. The wide input voltage range makes the inverter suitable for low power installations with reduced string size.  Highlights   − True three-phase bridge topology for  DC/AC output converter   − Transformerless topology   − Each inverter is set on specific grid  codes which can be selected in the field   − Wide input range   − Dual input section with independent  MPPT allows optimal energy harvesting from two sub-arrays oriented in different directions
