Solar inverters
ABB string invertersPVI-3.0/3.6/3.8/4.2-TL-OUTD 3.0kW to 4.2kW
This family of single-phase string
inverters complements the typical
number of rooftop solar panels
enabling homeowners to get the most
efficient energy harvesting for the size
of the property.
This inverter offers a dual input
section that processes two strings
with independent Multiple Power Point
Tracking (MPPT).
This is especially useful for rooftop
installations with two different
orientations from two sub-arrays
oriented in different directions, or
unbalanced strings (for example: East
and West).
The dual-input sections with
independent MPPT enable a more
optimal energy harvesting condition.
The high-speed MPPT offers real-
time power tracking and improved
energy harvesting.
The flat efficiency curve ensures high-
efficiency at all output levels allowing
a consistent and stable performance
across the entire input voltage and
output power range.
The transformerless operation gives the
highest efficiency of up to 97.0 percent.
The wide input voltage range makes
the inverter suitable to low-power
installations with reduced string size.
This rugged, outdoor inverter has
been designed to be a completely
sealed unit, to withstand the harshest
environmental conditions.
Highlights:
Single-phase and three-phase output
grid connection
Wide input-voltage range for
increased stringing flexibility and
energy harvesting
The high-speed and precise MPPT
algorithm offers real-time power
tracking and improved energy
harvesting
Outdoor NEMA 4X rated enclosure
for unrestricted use under any
environmental conditions
Integrated DC disconnect switch

Tech Brief
The UFO family of components eliminates the need for separate grounding hardware by bonding solar modules directly to IronRidge XR Rails. All system types that feature the UFO family—Flush Mount, Tilt Mount and Ground Mount—are fully listed to the UL 2703 standard.
UFO hardware forms secure electrical bonds with both the module and the rail, resulting in many parallel grounding paths throughout the system. This leads to safer and more reliable installations.

Attn: Mr. David F. Taggart, Vice President Products
Subject: IronRidge XR10 Rail, Roof Flush Mounting System – Structural Analysis
Dear Sir:
We have analyzed the IronRidge XR10 Rail for the subject solar module support system and determined that, for the configurations and criteria described below, it is in compliance with the applicable sections of the following Reference Documents:
Codes: ASCE/SEI 7-10 Min. Design Loads for Buildings & Other Structures California Building Code 2012 Edition
Other: AC428, Acceptance Criteria for Modular Framing Systems Used to Support PV Modules, dated Effective November 1, 2012 by ICC-ES Aluminum Design Manual, 2010 Edition
The IronRidge XR10 Rail is an extruded aluminum section with an overall depth of 1.75 in. and a net area of 0.363 sq.in. The rails are used to support solar modules, typically, on the roof of a building. See Exhibit A – attached. The rails are clamped to aluminum angle brackets that are either attached directly to the roof framing or attached to a stand that is screwed to the roof framing. The rails are mounted across the slope with a small clearance (flush mounting) to the underlying roof structure. The installed solar modules are at the same slope as the underlying roof structure.
All loads are transferred to the roof framing through the angle brackets by simple bi-axial flexure of the rails. The maximum span of the rails is governed by either the mid-span flexural stresses or the deflection requirement that the rail not come into contact with the roof.
The effect of seismic loads (for all design categories A-F) have been determined to be less than the effect due to wind loads in all load conditions and combinations. Therefore, the maximum allowable spans for common load cases are shown in the tables below. Tables 1A-9A are for modules with a maximum long dimension of 67.5 inches and Tables 1B-9B are for modules with a maximum long dimension of 78.5 inches.

LGate 120 RESIDENTIAL SOLAR MONITORING SOLUTION
Product Datasheet
The LGate 120 is a single-phase electronic watt-hour meter for remote monitoring of solar photovoltaic systems. It features a smart communications module to automatically transmit meter data over cellular or Ethernet networks allowing system owners and operators to easily manage distributed solar assets.
The LGate 120 combines a revenue-grade, solid-state power meter with an advanced communications gateway. These components work in conjunction to remotely monitor the performance of residential solar energy installation regardless of panel or inverter type. The LGate 120 is a one-piece completely under glass meter which installs easily using a standard socket base. Performance data is uploaded in near real-time to the Locus Energy SolarOS monitoring platform which provides a suite of tools and analytics for asset managers.
DATA COLLECTION
AC energy data is collected by the meter and passed to the communications module. Additional system performance data can be collected directly from meteorological sensors and supported inverters via available RS-485 or Zigbee connections. All data is stored in non-volatile memory and then automatically uploaded to the SolarOS and SolarNOC platforms.
NETWORK CONNECTIVITY
The communications gateway inside the LGate 120 supports plug and play connectivity through a cellular or available Ethernet network connection. Once the unit is installed and powered on, it will immediately begin transmitting data without any configuration. For maximum reliability, the communications gateway will automatically route uploads between the wireless and wired connections if either of the networks are unavailable.
FEATURES

Locus Energy, LLC www.locusenergy.com
October 22nd, 2013
This letter is to certify that the LGate 120 and LGate 320 are communication boards built into the Vision Meter 2S CL200 and 16S CL320 socket meters, respectively. Each of these meters was certified to the ANSI C12.20 (class 0.2%) standard by Underwriters Laboratory on June 7, 2013 as part of the Vision Meter Family (Project Number 12CA71134, Job Number 1001541515, and Report Number R12CA71134-ANSI).
ANSI C12.20 is currently recognized as the industry standard for electrical socket meters in both utility and PV monitoring applications. These tests cover both meter accuracy as well as several safety standards including electrical and environmental safety, as well as resistance to various types of mechanical shock. As electrical socket meters are generally installed and maintained by trained and certified professionals, rather than consumers, they do not fit the typical criteria for additional types of UL or IEC certification.
If you have any further questions regarding the product certification of any Locus Energy LGate-branded device, please contact us at support@locusenergy.com.
