String by climatic region
T_min per ДСТУ-Н Б В.1.1-27:2010, табл. 1; open-circuit voltage at T_min: K_U = 1 + α·(T_min − 25)/100 = 1.17 (α -0.25 %/K, T_min -42 °C; Annex B).
| Region | T_min | Panel U_oc at T_min, V | Min per string | Max per string | String U_oc at max, V (≤ 1,100) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Region I | -40 °C | 48.12 | 6 | 22 | 1,058.6 |
| Region II | -42 °C | 48.32 | 6 | 22 | 1,063.1 |
| Region IIIA | -38 °C | 47.91 | 6 | 22 | 1,054.0 |
| Region IIIB | -32 °C | 47.29 | 6 | 23 | 1,087.6 |
| Region IV | -20 °C | 46.05 | 6 | 23 | 1,059.1 |
| Region V | -27 °C | 46.77 | 6 | 23 | 1,075.7 |
The minimum per string keeps the string voltage in heat (panel V_mp 29.3 V) above the MPPT window (160 V).
Input currents
| Panel I_sc / MPPT input I_sc, A | 15.82 / 20.0 |
|---|---|
| Panel I_mp / MPPT input I_mp, A | 15.10 / 16.0 |
| Parallel strings per MPPT | 1 |
| MPPT inputs | 2 |
No cautions about the currents.
Example plants
The Solispec engine laid out the strings for plants of several sizes with this inverter at the lowest T_min; only those that pass the checks with every panel placed are shown.
| Plant | Panels | kW DC | Inverters | Strings | DC/AC |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ≈ 5 kW | 10 | 5.20 | 1 | 10 pan. × 1 — inv. 1, MPPT 1 | 1.04 |
| ≈ 15 kW | 28 | 14.56 | 3 | 14 pan. × 1 — inv. 1, MPPT 1; 14 pan. × 1 — inv. 2, MPPT 1 | 0.97 |
- DC/AC 1.46 — will clip peaks
- nothing connected
