DC power manager, power controller, my-PV, SOL THOR

From pv journal Germany

The Austrian firm My-PV, which makes a speciality of heating options utilizing photovoltaics, has unveiled its new SOL•THOR energy controller. The system, often known as the DC Power Manager, makes it attainable to make use of power from photovoltaic programs to immediately generate warmth.

The system has two DC inputs (for MC4 connectors) and just one MPP tracker. Solar mills “with 1 to 10 modules” are deliberate, the producer stated. According to the info sheet, a most of 26 amps of enter present is feasible with an enter voltage vary of 30 to 230 volts, which corresponds to as much as 5.9 kW of energy. In operation, nonetheless, the present/voltage management achieves a most of three.6 kW at most output relying on the enter voltage. DC energy is supplied via two alternately adjustable outputs. This signifies that each heating parts could be managed, for instance for stratified charging of a storage tank. Electric boilers can be used.

SOL•THOR works independently, ie with out connection to the facility grid. However, it’s attainable to make use of mains energy for reheating. With a housing of safety class IP54 and a temperature vary of minus 20 to 50 levels Celsius, the system can also be appropriate for out of doors set up. It weighs 2.95 kilograms, together with the wall bracket, and measures 248.5 x 167.4 x 116.2 millimeters. The touchscreen acquainted from My-PV’s AC-coupled merchandise is used for commissioning and operation. Three interfaces can be found: LAN, WLAN and RS485.

SOL•THOR shall be introduced at Intersolar Europe in Munich (at Kostal stand B3.130) and is anticipated to be obtainable from the primary quarter of 2025.
