Fimer’s three-phase inverter here in April

Global e-mobility and solar firm Fimer introduces its new PVS-10/33-TL three-phase string inverter solutions for commercial and industrial applications to Australia and New Zealand in April 2021.

“Last year was challenging for the sector, but the one thing we know for sure is that demand for solar power will continue to increase over the next 10 years,” Fimer chairman Filippo Carzaniga says.

“In response, our team of R&D and product management experts built on their extensive experience in inverter manufacturing to create our impressive new PVS-10/12.5/15-TL and PVS-20/30/33-TL platforms.”

Available in outputs from 10kW to 33kW, the string inverters offer high power density and strong energy harvesting potential.

They are flexible enough to fit anywhere and can be easily installed in new or existing plants to provide lower installation and maintenance costs, Firmer says.

The inverters feature current monitoring on each string, which can reach up to 1100Vdc input voltage, allowing for longer strings as well as the ability to operate across wider temperature ranges.

The fuse-free design removes the need for maintenance and on-site interventions due to fuse faults. To guarantee longer plant life, the inverters have optional Potential Induced Degradation (PID) prevention to secure PV module performance over time.

Another major advantage is the inclusion of an integrated zero export system, which removes the need for expensive additional devices.

Integrated wifi/ethernet for TCP/IP networking allows for cost efficient networking and off the shelf replacements. For retrofit applications the inverter range offers DC side flexibility.

Orders are being taken now for April delivery.

Fimer acquired ABB’s solar inverter business in the first quarter of 2020. Its legacy portfolio continues to carry the ABB brand under trademark licence agreement. The PVS-10/33 will be released under the Fimer brand.
