This week, Solectria Renewables, LLC, a U.S. PV inverter manufacturer, introduced its new PVI 3800TL transformerless residential inverter. The new 3.8kW single-phase inverter is a residential solution available in the inverter market nowadays.
The PVI 3800TL features the highest peak (98%) and CEC (97.5%) efficiencies, as compared with other major inverter suppliers. Its compact design with integrated fused combiner and disconnect makes for a quick and easy installation. It can withstand the harshest weather conditions with a NEMA 4 enclosure rating.
"Solectria was an early entrant into the residential market in 2005. Since then, we have expanded the line to cover 1.8-7.5kW single-phase inverters to keep up with the continuous development and improvement of the residential PV market," said James Worden, CEO of Solectria Renewables. "Adding this new transformerless inverter is evidence to our commitment to be at the forefront of the PV inverter market."
The PVI 3800TL is the first in this new line of transformerless residential inverters. Solectria plans to add 5.2, 6.6 and 7.6kW inverters in 2Q14. These inverters will have performance specifications as impressive as the PVI 3800TL as well as dual MPPT.
