Description
Photovoltaic Tester BENNING PV 3 for testing solar parks, power plants and large scale plants with 1500 V technology.
As part of the commissioning and repeat testing of grid-connected photovoltaic systems in accordance with VDE 0126-23 (DIN EN 62446), polarity tests, open-circuit voltage and short-circuit current measurements of parallel-connected PV strings can be carried out, stored and documented safely and efficiently up to 1500 V/40 A.
With radio connection to the optional BENNING SUN 2, the existing irradiation conditions (W/m2) and the PV module and ambient temperature (°C) are automatically stored with each test procedure.
Performance characteristics:
- Idle voltage measurement of PV modules/PV strings and PV fields up to 1500 V
- Powerful short circuit current measurement of parallel connected PV strings up to 40 A
- Radio connection to the irradiation and temperature measuring device BENNING SUN 2
- Measured value memory for 999 PV string tests
Product advantages:- Automatic test sequence (+/-, Vo/c, Is/c, W/m2, °C) with reverse polarity protection
- Powerful short-circuit current measurement, up to 4 x larger reserve than usual PV testers with 10 A limitation
- Reduced testing times and dismantling effort, since PV strings no longer have to be separated individually and tested one after the other
- Reduces the risk of failure due to overload when testing PV strings of unknown capacity
- Integrated measured value memory for 999 PV strings/PV fields
- Real time clock with date and time stamp per measurement
- USB interface and download software (CSV format)
- Large graphic display with backlight
- Optimal transport and storage protection (IP 64)
Measurement functions:- Polarity check of the PV generator/ PV cabling
- Idle voltage measurement for modern 1500 V DC systems
- Short circuit current measurement on PV strings up to 40 A DC
- Solar irradiance (W/m2) and PV module/ambient temperature (°C) via BENNING SUN 2
BENNING SOLAR Datalogger (download software)- Download the measured values from BENNING PV 3 in CSV format
- Further processing of the measured values in MS Excel® possible
