Tigo® re-shapes the solar industry by shipping the First 1500V certified Flex MLPE

 

Supporting PV installations of 600V, 1000V and 1500V systems worldwide 
 

LOS GATOS, Calif., July 7th, 2016 – Tigo®, the Flex MLPE pioneer, recently extended its platform design to support up to 1500V PV systems which can further reduce installation time, system components, wiring and other BOS costs.

Tigo’s TS4 platform recently got listed by CSA under ANSI/UL std.1741, CSA 22.2 -01 requirements.  TS4 product designs are fully certified and are ready for design and installation to support 1500V grid-tied PV system.

Technically, raising the system voltage to 1500 volts allows for 50% longer strings, which eliminates 33% of the combiners and wiring in a system. The longer string enables a higher inverter input voltage, which supports an increase in the inverter’s rated output power by 40% to 70%. With its currently shipping Long String feature, Tigo® further improves the customer benefits beyond the 1500 volt capability. TS4 gives installers a greater degree of control over what they want and need for any given project, big or small.
