| SatCon launches new photovoltaic inverter  SatCon Technology Corporation has successfully launched its 500kW PowerGate inverter. The 500kW AE-500-60-PV-A utility-grade photovoltaic inverter was successfully listed to the UL 1741 Standard and also received approval of the unit with the California Energy Commission. The 500kW PowerGate unit is rated for 95% efficiency at nominal voltage, a huge advantage for large power installations. It is currently available as a 480V, 60-hertz unit with integrated transformer, and as a transformerless unit for incorporation into medium voltage power systems.The PowerGate AE-PV Series inverter is a commercial-grade product available in 208, 240, and 480 volt models for grid-connected operation in low and medium voltage applications as single unit and parallel multi-megawatt systems. The PowerGate is a completely integrated package with all electrical and control system components pre-assembled and tested in a common enclosure. This minimizes installation time by reducing field wiring and site testing and greatly reduces the equipment footprint, while improving reliability of the system. The PowerGate is available in power ratings from 30kW to 500kW, and meets all requirements of UL1741 and IEEE1547. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
