Safety Product Overview Microinverter System Description A microinverter system is composed of PV grid-connnected microinverters, PV modules, and grid. Microinverter data are transmitted to SolaX monitoring platform SolaXCloud. Figure 1-1 System overview diagram X1-Microinverter 2-in-1 series The X1-Microinverter 2-in-1 series manages system energy. Microinverters convert the direct current power generated from the PV modules into grid- compatible AC current.
Page 13
The X1-Microinverter 2-in-1 is integrated with MPPT, which means that even though a PV module runs abnormally or is shaded, other modules won't be affected and can operate the unshaded string at maximum efficiency point. This function plays an important role to improve the efficiency of a photovoltaic (PV) generation system.
Safety Highlights • Module-level monitoring on the data of module voltage, current, internal temperature, and meter value without monitoring host • Build-in Wi-Fi communication module, independently accessing to Internet • Up to 20 A DC input current to be compatible with the high power PV module •...
