TRANSCLINIC VI50 are<br />

connected to the PV panels using<br />

a st<strong>and</strong>ard <strong>photovoltaic</strong> connector.<br />

It measures the voltage of the<br />

<strong>photovoltaic</strong> panel <strong>and</strong> the current<br />

in the string. It is powered by the<br />

<strong>photovoltaic</strong> panel.<br />

Quick <strong>and</strong> easy trouble shooting in just two steps<br />

In the first step towards localising the fault, the individual strings are analysed.<br />

Total power string 1<br />

In the second step, a Transclinic VI50 is attached to each <strong>photovoltaic</strong> panel in<br />

that string to localise the fault on panel level.<br />

Individual power of the <strong>photovoltaic</strong> panels<br />

After each fault is detected, appropriate actions can be taken which provides a<br />

simple <strong>and</strong> cheap way to increase the total per<strong>for</strong>mance of the system.<br />

• Panel repair<br />

• Cleaning<br />

• Replacement<br />

• New grouping of panels to a<br />

string<br />

Faulty <strong>photovoltaic</strong> panels are taken<br />

out of the strings <strong>and</strong> new grouping<br />

of panels to a string to avoid<br />

mismatching. In this way the<br />

per<strong>for</strong>mance can be optimised<br />

without having to replace the panel or<br />

purchase a new one.<br />

Monitoring <strong>systems</strong><br />

CLINICS SOLAR provides an easy <strong>and</strong> quick way to ensure a long-term<br />

yield from the <strong>photovoltaic</strong> plant, without a large investment.<br />
