String-level performance data via wireless communication
The Ampt Communication Unit (CU) provides valuable system performance insight by collecting String View® data from Ampt String Optimizers via two-way wireless communication. String View data includes PV string current and voltage from each optimizer input, the optimizer’s output current and power, as well as daily integrated energy. The Ampt CU passes records to your SCADA or data monitoring system to make the information available in the field, at your remote operations center, or through a third-party monitoring service.
Remotely track string-level performance
Quickly identify and locate system issues
Greater predictability to lower risk
Reduced O&M costs
Advanced features unlock system value
Visibility – remotely track system output; identify and locate problems quickly
Synchronicity – view point-in-time measurements aligned across all optimizers to correlate data with events
Accuracy – measure output to +/- 0.25% accuracy
Compatibility – link seamlessly via Modbus to 3rd party SCADA gateways
Maximum output – avoid hidden losses from open disconnects/fuses, loose connections, soiling, vegetation management, degradation, tracker misalignment, and more.
Benefits that enhance O&M
String View - string-level data from optimizer inputs and outputs
Easy mapping – match data to both electrical and physical site layouts
Modbus-ready – provides data in SunSpec format
API – easy-to-process telemetry data in JSON format for custom integration and analysis
Commissioning UI – provides data to quickly troubleshoot electrical connections in the PV field
