SolarEdge-P340 Power Optimizer

SolarEdge P340 Power Optimizer

340W, Add-On Box for (1) High-Power 60 Cell Module, 8-48V, 11A, MC4-Compatible In and Out, 1000VDC

5-Series Power Optimizer for Higher Wattage 60 and 72-Cell Modules

With the introduction of higher power modules in the market, SolarEdge now offers a higher wattage power optimizer for residential and commercial installations. The P340 power optimizer is a DC/DC converter designed to support high power 60-cell modules up to 340 watts, 60 volts and 11 Amps (Isc). 5-Series power optimizers are rated IP68/NEMA6P and are compliant with the VDE-AR-E 2100-712 Fire Safety Standard.

The SolarEdge P340 power optimizer is connected to each module, replacing the traditional solar junction box. Each power optimizer maximizes energy output from each and every module through constant tracking of the Maximum Power Point individually, per module. Furthermore, the power optimizers monitor the performance of each module and communicate performance data to the SolarEdge monitoring portal for enhanced, cost-effective maintenance. When working with SolarEdge inverters, power optimizers automatically maintain a fixed string voltage, allowing optimal efficiency of the SolarEdge inverter and giving installers greater flexibility to design optimal PV systems. The independent optimization (IndOP™) technology allows power optimizers to be installed without the need for additional interface hardware and to operate directly with any inverter. Each power optimizer is equipped with the unique SafeDC™ feature which automatically shuts down modules' voltage whenever inverter or grid power are shutdown.
