The string combiner box PVI-STRINGCOMB is an ideal complement to the Aurora PVI-CENTRAL family of inverters that ensures the same control and monitoring accuracy
of the PV generator tipically achieved with string inverters.

The addition of the optional DC switch available in the PVI-STRINGCOMB-S version is useful in case of long DC cable’s paths (i.e. rooftop solar arrays) and to ensure a safe operation and maintenance of the DC side of the system.

*Magnetek is a distributor of the Aurora PVI-Srtingcomb.

Benefits

  • The string combiner box for the protection and monitoring of the array in centralized PV systems
  • 20 input channels rated 10A (or 10 inputs rated 20A each) with integrated string current measurement (hall effect sensors) are available for an accurate monitoring and early fault detection of each string
  • Fuse status monitoring ensures prompt fault detection and alarm
  • Up to 20 strings can be connected and paralleled on the same box, with fuse protection on both the positive and negative pole (2 parallel strings for each fuse)
  • String cable connection via Multi-Contact or cable glands and terminal blocks
  • Overvoltage protection with replaceable varistor cartridge
  • Available with integrated output DC switch (STRINGCOMB-S version)
  • IP65 plastic enclosure for outdoor installation
  • Integrated RS-485 serial port for remote communication with the inverter
  • 4 optional analog inputs for connection to external sensors (irradiance, temperature, wind speed, etc...)
