This inverter offers a dual input section that processes two strings with independent Multiple Power Point Tracking (MPPT). This is especially useful for rooftop installations with two different orientations from two sub-arrays oriented in different directions, or unbalanced strings (for example: East and West). The dual-input sections with independent MPPT enable a more optimal energy harvesting condition. The high-speed MPPT offers real- time power tracking and improved energy harvesting. The flat efficiency curve ensures high- efficiency at all output levels allowing a consistent and stable performance across the entire input voltage and output power range. The transformerless operation gives the highest efficiency of up to 97.0 percent. The wide input voltage range makes the inverter suitable to low-power installations with reduced string size. This rugged, outdoor inverter has been designed to be a completely sealed unit, to withstand the harshest environmental conditions. Highlights Ũ Single-phase and three-phase output grid connection Ũ Wide input-voltage range for increased stringing flexibility and energy harvesting Ũ The high-speed and precise MPPT algorithm offers real-time power tracking and improved energy harvesting Ũ Outdoor NEMA 4X rated enclosure for unrestricted use under any environmental conditions Ũ Integrated DC disconnect switch in compliance with international Standards (-S Version) 2 ABB solar inverters | Product flyer for PVI-3.0/3.6/3.8/4.2-TL-OUTD Technical data and types Type code PVI-3.0-OUTD-US PVI-3.6-OUTD-US PVI-3.8-OUTD-US PVI-4.2-OUTD-US General specifications Nominal output power 3000W 3600W 3300 W 3800W 4200W Maximum output power wattage 3000 W 3300 1 W 3300 1 W 3600 W 4000 1 W 4000 1 W 3300 W 4200 1 W 4200 1 W 4200 W 46001 W 4600 1 W Rated grid AC voltage 208V 240V 277V 208V 240V 277V 208V 240V 277V 208V 240V 277V Input side (DC) Number of independent MPPT channels 2 2 2 2 Maximum usable power for each channel 2000W 3000W 3000W 3000W Absolute maximum voltage (Vmax) 600V Start-up voltage (Vstart) 200V (adj. 120-350V) Full power MPPT voltage range 160-530V 120-530V 140-530V 140-530V Operating MPPT voltage range Z 8UVCTV 8 ű8 Maximum current (Idcmax) for both MPPT in parallel 20A 32A 32A 32A Maximum usable current per channel 10A 16A 16A 16A Maximum short circuit current limit per channel 12.5A 20.0A 20.0A 20.0A Number of wire landing terminals per channel 2 pairs Array wiring termination Terminal block, pressure clamp, AWG20-AWG6 Output side (AC) Grid connection type 1Ø/ 2W Split- Ø/3W 1Ø/ 2W 1Ø/ 2W Split- Ø/3W 1Ø/ 2W 1Ø/ 2W Split- Ø/3W 1Ø/ 2W 1Ø/ 2W Split- Ø/3W 1Ø/ 2W Adjustable voltage range (Vmin-Vmax) (V)183- 228V 211- 264V 244- 304V 183- 228V 211- 264V 244- 304V 183- 228V 211- 264V 244- 304V 183- 228V 211- 264V 244- 304V Grid frequency 60Hz Adjustable grid frequency range 57-60.5Hz Maximum current (Iac,max) 14.5A 14.5A 12.0A 17.2A 16.0A 16.0A 16.0A 16.0A 16.0A 20.0A 20.0A 20.0A Power factor > 0.995 (adjustable to ±0.8) Total harmonic distortion at rated power < 2% Grid wiring termination type Terminal block, Pressure clamp, AWG20-AWG6 Input protection devices Reverse polarity protection Yes Over-voltage protection type Varistor, 2 for each channel PV array ground fault detection Pre start-up RISO and dynamic GFDI (requires floating arrays) Output protection devices Anti-islanding protection Meets UL1741 / IEEE1547 requirements Over-voltage protection type Varistor, 2 (L1 - L2 / L1 - G) Maximum AC OCPD rating 20A 20A 15A 25A 20A 20A 20A 20A 20A 25A 25A 25A Efficiency Maximum efficiency 96.9% 97% 97% 97% CEC efficiency 96% Operating performance Nighttime consumption < 0.6W RMS Stand-by consumption < 8WRMS Communication User-interface 16 characters x 2 lines LCD display Remote monitoring (1xRS485 incl.)
