Product Description
Maximize PV energy production:
Each PV module has individual Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) controls, which ensures that the maximum power is exported to the utility grid regardless of the performance of the other PV modules in the array. When PV modules in the array are affected by shade, dust, orientation, or any situation in which one module under-performs compared with the other units, the MicroGT 500 inverter ensures top performance from the array by maximizing the performance of each module within the array.
More reliable than centralized or string inverters:
The distributed MicroGT system ensures no single point of system failure exists across the PV array. MicroGT 500 microinverters are designed to operate at full power at ambient outdoor temperatures of up to 149°F (65°C). The microinverter housing is designed for outdoor installation and complies with the NEMA 6 environmental enclosure rating.
Product Features
- MicroGT 500 Microinverter is storage-ready and ideal for enhancing battery life in AC-coupled systems.
