Schneider Electric Solar has announced the launch of the MPPT 100 600 solar charge controller, which is perfect for homeowners who want to be more independent of their energy needs and off-grid life.
The Conext MPPT 100 extends Schneider Electric's line of solar charge controllers with a wider range of power for solar and storage systems. Compared to the MPPT 80 600 charge controller, the MPPT 100 600 offers 25% more charging power.
With the MPPT 100, homeowners can optimize battery charging using solar energy and maximize energy stability by installing large PV arrays easily and flexibly to secure the entire home. It is also better suited for extended power outages. Even if the battery inverter shuts down at night due to a fully discharged battery, the MPPT charge controller allows the system to recover when the PV returns.
With the consideration of oversized systems, the MPPT 100 enables 7 kW solar power systems. It is ideal for network-connected and network-independent systems in residential areas and is scalable for larger installations. For installers, the 600 V MPPT 100 offers faster installations and a lower balance of system costs. With two PV strings per charge controller, the MPPT 100 600 offers 50% less wiring than low-voltage charge controllers.
In addition to the Schneider Electric MPPT 60 and MPPT 80, the MPPT 100 is also compatible with the MPPT Disconnect RS accessory for fast shutdown, fire protection and arc fault detection. Schneider Electric MPPT solar charge controllers are part of the ecosystem of solutions for solar and storage integration, such as: B. XW and SW storage inverters, power distribution and energy management.
Customers can also use Schneider Electric's Insight, the digital energy management platform for Solar + storage systems. The system performance can be accessed via the local, cloud and mobile interfaces. Homeowners can easily monitor, operate and upgrade their solar and storage installation thanks to advanced cybersecurity. For installers, powerful features such as remote settings management and firmware updates make it easy to maintain the sites while keeping the number of truck rolls to a minimum. Insight also provides installers with a suite of portfolio monitoring and management tools that enable them to track a large number of installation locations.
