I-V400w allows field detection of I-V Curve an of the main characteristic parameters both of a single module and of strings of modules for PV installations up to a maximum of 1000V and 15A. For measuring I-V Curve, I-V400w manages an internal database of the modules, which can be updated at any time by the user and comparison between the measured data with the rated values allows immediately evaluating whether the string or the module fulfills the efficiency parameters declared by the manufacturer. I-V Curve can be measured also by decentralizing measurement of irradiation and temperature by using the optional remote unit SOLAR02, using the radio frequency connection (RF) with the master unit.
Also for I-V400w, the display at the end of the test of I-V Curve is a clear indication about the compliance with the specifications declared by the panel manufacturer.

VA500 is the ideal solution for those who want to protect their devices from water, dust and hostile environments. It is also suitable to contain all accessories for a perfect management of the job.
This pair of adapters allows for the connection o devices like I-V400 and Solar I-V to photovoltaic panels with connectors MC4.
This pair of adapters allows for the connection of devices like I-V400 and Solar I-V to photovoltaic panels with connectors MC3.
While used with SOLAR I-Ve, I-V500w and I-V400w in AUTO mode, this set of cables allows quick I-V curve tracing.
With your mobile device, HTANALYSIS™
helps you to understand the problems
you may have in PV Installations
You can connect your irradiance sensor and temperature probe directly on your I-V400w, but if you want to remotize the measurement you just need as remote unit the Solar02. When the I-V400w and Solar02 are paired you can walk far even for 1 km. When you come back near the I-V400w the Solar02 will upload the recorded data from the sensors directly to the master unit.
Open the fuse box in the combiner box and start measure I-V Curve string by string, each measure (measure + data saving) needs no more then 15 seconds and no more then 1 people. I-V400w starts automatically to measure the I-V Curve when your test leads touches the positive and negative poles. All that you need is KITKELVIN Test Leads accessory
Connect via WiFi your tablet or smartphone and manage the modules in your I-V Curve tracer. You can add, modify or delete the modules stored in your device. All of those functions are available even on PC software TOPVIEW (included).
You can have your measures on your PC directly from HTCLOUD™. All that you need is to take your smatphone or tablet in your hands, open the app HTANALYSIS™ and connect your I-V Curve Tracer via WiFi. In few gestures you can upload the data on HTCLOUD™ and in REAL TIME you can get the data on your PC with TOPVIEW software (included).
