2 Plugreen Solar micro-inverter System
The Plugreen Solar micro-inverter extracts maximum energy from individual photovoltaic (PV) panels.
Each Plugreen Solar micro-inverter is connected to individual PV module. This enables unique intelligent
Maximum Peak Power Point Tracker (iMPPT) of each PV module. By doing so, the single point of failure can
be avoided compared to a string inverter system.
Communication Gateway Unit can be plugged into any two pin standard outlet. The power supply to this unit
is universal so it works from 85 to 265VAC. This unit needs to be installed indoors. Once you connect the
AC power, connect Ethernet cable between the units and your broadband router or modem. Once you
install the Communication Gateway unit, it automatically starts communicating with the centralized web
server. Please log in to the data monitoring web server though Plugreen webpage to understand the data
logging systems and displays.
This integrated system maximizes energy harvest, increases system
reliability, and simplifies design, installation and management.
