The power plants of the future.
The transformerless three-phase inverters Powador 10.0 TL3 to 18.0 TL3.
Photovoltaic systems of up to several
hundred kilowatts can be designed ex-
tremely fl exibly in small, highly effi cient
units with the transformerless three-
phase inverters Powador 10.0 TL3 to
18.0TL3.
They operate using two separate MPP
trackers that can handle both symme-
trical and asymmetrical loads to allow
for optimum adjustment. Each tracker
is able to process virtually all of the AC
output. This allows for all typical requi-
rements of complex designs to be fulfi l-
led; on the one hand, for example, full
confi guration of an east/west-facing roof
(symmetrical load) or, on the other hand,
the regular confi guration of a south-
facing roof without having to dispense
with the solar yield of a dormer (asym-
metrical load). The MPP trackers can
also be connected in parallel: installation
costs less (you do not need an additional
external disconnector) when strings need
to be combined before the inverter. Two
strings can be connected per MPP con-
troller, i.e. 4 strings for each unit.
The rated input voltage range of 350 to
800V is particularly broad (420 to 800V
for the Powador 18.0TL3). The inverters
switch to the grid from 250V, and, when
in operation, they still feed in at 200V.
This means that solar yields are optimum
for comparatively small areas such as
dormers or carports but they also ope-
rate for more of the day. The peak effi ci-
ency is 98 % and the European effi ciency
is also above average. The compact de-
sign weighing only 40 kg combined with
the DC connection via solar connectors
makes installation very easy and econo-
mical.
It is easy to achieve perfect communi-
cation with these units. They are fi tted
with an integrated data logger with web
server, a graphical display for showing
operating data and a USB port for instal-
ling fi rmware updates. The current soft-
ware can be downloaded free of charge
from the download area of www.kaco-
newenergy.de/service. The yield data can
be called from the web server or via USB
for evaluation. The integrated data log-
ger can also be connected directly to the
Powador web internet portal for profes-
sional evaluation and visualisation of the
inverter data.
A number of country-specifi c default
settings are programmed into the inver-
ters. These are easy to select during on-
site installation. The interface language
can be selected separately. The inverters
conform to the German Medium and
Low Voltage Directives and support the
functions of the Powador-protect for grid
and plant protection and also power ma-
nagement in accordance with the Ger-
man EEG 2012.
The Powador 18.0 TL3 is available from
July 2012.
