(03.17.2005)
Santa Barbara, CA. Fronius USA Solar Electronics Division, a world
leader in power electronics, announced that it received approval from
the New York Department of Public Service Commission for its new FRONIUS
IG 4000, IG 5100 and IG 4500-LV grid-tied inverters for meeting the
Standard Interconnect Requirements for distributed PV systems.
"New York is a growing market for residential and commercial PV systems
and Fronius is excited about being able to offer local contractors a
broad range of inverters that can be used to optimally design systems of
varying power requirements. " says Mark Stimson, Director of Sales and
Marketing for Fronius USA - Solar Electronics Division. "The new FRONIUS
IG inverters also offer one of the broadest voltage windows making them
an ideal match for just about any solar panel available in the market
today. "
Fronius recently introduced a number of new FRONIUS IG inverters that
offer same high efficiency, established high reliability, and
intelligent thermal management that has made Fronius a leading choice
for high reliability inverters used in grid-tied photovoltaic systems.
The FRONIUS IG Series now includes the most extensive range of inverters
between 2 and 5.1 kW. At 26 and 42 lbs., the FRONIUS IG inverters are
between one-third and half the weight of competing inverters. The new IG
inverters feature the Fronius MIX™ Concept that increases energy yield
and inverter reliability. The "Master Inverter X-change Concept" is a
process that increases the inverters efficiency during part-load
conditions such as sunrise, sunset, dusk and heavy cloud cover. The MIX™
Concept also enables load sharing between the two power-circuits found
in each of the new inverters. This reduces operating hours by 30%
increasing the reliability and eliminating downtime of the inverters.
