Single and Three (10 and 12 kW) phase inverters
Key features of these Made in Ontario* Power-One, Aurora inverters include:
• Transformer less topography for high 96 – 97% efficiency
• Dual independent high speed MPPT solar inputs
• Watertight NEMA4 enclosure
• No electrolytic capacitors, leading to a longer product lifetime.
• Standard 10 year warranty, with option to extend to 20 years total.
• Integrated DC Disconnect

* US Made inverters also available

These inverters have all the usual Aurora benefits, including dual input section to process two strings with independent MPPT, high speed and precise MPPT algorithm for real-time power tracking and energy harvesting, as well as transformerless operation for high performance efficiencies of up to 97%. The wide input voltage range makes the inverter suitable to low power installations with reduced string size. This outdoor inverter has been designed as a completely sealed unit to withstand the harshest environmental conditions. The high frequency isolated topology allows the 10 kWp unit to be lightweight and compact in size to help with transportation and installation. This inverter is free of electrolytic capacitors, leading to a longer product lifetime. Compatible with PVI-Radiomodule (# 08-90-076) for wireless communication with Aurora PVI-Desktop (# 08-90-074).

PVI Central

PVI Aurora Central InverterThese extremely scalable modular inverter systems, based on 55 kW conversion modules, increase usable power and improve availability. The reduction of performance in any individual inverter will not impact the energy-harvesting capabilities of other modules. The product is available with and without an isolation transformer. Industry-leading power conversion efficiencies of up to 98% (-TL), combined with high-speed Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) channels, optimize energy harvesting across a wide array of operating conditions. Inverter systems are delivered pre-configured and pre-tested in rugged enclosures, significantly reducing on-site wiring and testing. In case of ungrounded application the unit can be configured as single or multiple MPPT (with exception of PVI-Central-50 & PVI-55.0/-TL).

• Standard 10 year warranty, with option to extend to 20 years total.

OutBack Power Inverters
OutBack Power inverters offer a list of innovations versus competing products. With improved inverter reliability using next generation power technology, they also make their inverters modular so systems could be stacked in any configuration and are easily expanded to build systems up to 36 kW of total power. Best of all most models are now grid-tie capable.

OutBack Power FX Series
OutBack Power products offer unique features including:

• Smaller design takes less wall space
• Fully sealed (FX and GTFX models) or bug-proof (GVFX)
• Grid tie compatible without additional accessories
• True pure sine wave output instead of 34 steps per cycle offers lower harmonic distortion
• Better able to start large motor loads
• Higher efficiency, especially at higher power loads
• Built-in generator start software
• Field serviceable with end user board swaps
• Stackable in series/parallel for 120/ 240 VAC and 3 phase, up to 36 kW		 OutBack FX sealed


OutBack Power offers fully sealed models in both 24 and 48 V, with 500 watts more power than the original FX series. With an all-aluminum chassis, conformal coated circuit boards and a gasketed design, the inverter is fully protected from some of the major causes of inverter failure: corrosion and insects.

The modular design allows OutBack Inverters to be stacked in either series (120 VAC) or parallel (120/ 240 VAC), or even three phase (120/ 208 VAC) and up to 8 inverters may be stacked in a single system. OutBack inverters can be used for on grid or off-grid renewable energy systems, back-up power and vehicle applications.

Dimensions: 41.4 x 21.1 x 29.2 cm / 16.25 x 8.25 x 11.5" high.
Weight 27 kg / 62 lbs.
Five year warranty.

Matrix Energy is excited to announce that we now offer Tigo Energy Maximizers. Not comfortable with micro-inverters on your system but need module level optimation and system monitoring and control?

Tigo Energy DC maximizers deliver more power, active management, and enhanced safety for commercial or residential solar systems. It results in a faster return on investment, longer uptime and lower cost of ownership.

Module maximizers are connected to each 300-350 W modules junction box (MC3, MC4, Tyco and H+S Radox versions) and harness maximum power at a 99.5% efficiency modules with an integrated matching impedance technology, which constantly tracks maximum power points and prevents heating areas.

Solar production performance or detected defaults are collected from each maximizer by the Maximizer Management unit via a Gateway, and are sent to a server to be analyzed by the Tigo Energy MaxiManager software. PV system yield is improved monitoring allows a real-time active control and accurate data logging is achieved through intuitive software. The Gateway can interact wirelessly with up to 60 modules within a 50 ft range. The Tigo management unit can be linked to max 6 Gateways (360 modules) via RS-485. First three months monitoring included. Options to extend monitoring software to 5, 10 or 20 years.
