This PV installation recorder is designed to meet any requirement of photovoltaic installation specialists. Further to providing the possibility of measuring and recording the efficiency of single-string and single-phase photovoltaic systems, this device also measures the I-V characteristic of both a single module and module strings. Thanks to the Solar I-V, the operator can test the photovoltaic system and, should it give a negative result, immediately identify the problems of the system in order to promptly solve them. Solar I-V is provided with the remote unit Solar-02 which permits the remote measuring of irradiation and temperature with preliminary automatic synchronization between main unit and remote unit. Solar-02 is positioned next to the photovoltaic modules and it is connected to the probes for measuring environmental parameters. The synchronization between the two units guarantee the necessary contemporaneity of measurements. In the case of PV efficiency recordings, this grants the right efficiency calculation. For I-V curve measurements, the synchronization permits to extrapolate the I-V curve at STC without using long extension cords cable. Solar I-V allows carrying out efficiency recordings over time with programmable integration period from 5 seconds to 60 minutes. Each value is automatically saved in the internal memory and can be downloaded onto the PC for subsequent analyses. The measured I-V characteristic is not affected by the resistance of the measurement cables, as the measurement is carried out with the 4-terminal measuring method. Solar I-V also manages a database of photovoltaic modules, which can be updated at any time. The measured values, correctly reported at standard test conditions, are immediately compared with the values declared by the manufacturer to give the OK/No result of the test. The operator must not do any calculation, the instrument carries out the comparison rapidly and automatically. The instrument can be interfaced with accessory MPP 300, which extends the characteristics of Solar I-V by enabling recordings on single-phase and three-phase, single-string and multi-string (up to three strings), single-inverter and multi-inverter photovoltaic systems (therefore also in three-phase systems provided with three single-phase inverters).
