Ensuring Quality in MLPE for Global Solar Growth

With over 5 GW of shipped products and operations in more than 130 countries, APsystems is a leading innovator in Module-Level Power Electronics (MLPE), maintaining rigorous quality standards across a global scale to support the energy transition.

Why Quality in Microinverters Matters

As MLPE becomes critical to solar PV deployment, ensuring high-quality, reliable products is essential. APsystems addresses this through:

  • End-to-end quality management protocols, from R&D to after-sales service.
  • Use of only tier-1 suppliers and rigorous component testing.
  • Strict product qualification involving lifecycle simulations and real-world field testing.

Strategic Quality Assurance & Global Reliability

To maintain low failure rates and deliver high performance at scale, APsystems emphasizes:

  • Accelerated testing: over 20,000 hours of life simulation, IP67 ingress protection, and multi-standard compliance (UL, VDE, EMC, etc.).
  • Advanced methodologies like Six Sigma, AOI, and FCT to ensure zero-defect production.
  • Full traceability using UID-based tracking for each unit through automated systems.

Technology-Driven Global Deployment

Innovations in microinverter design are backed by:

  • Over 166 IP registrations and major product releases like the YC500 and YC1000 series.
  • The fourth-generation DS3 microinverters tested under extreme conditions by third-party labs like RETC.
  • Comprehensive after-sales operations with 24-hour response commitments and multilingual technical support.

Expanding Ecosystem for Energy Storage

Looking ahead, APsystems is diversifying into green energy storage solutions, building three energy storage ecosystems around microinverters:

  • DIY micro-storage
  • Residential energy storage
  • Industrial and commercial storage

By aligning technological innovation with global service and quality control, APsystems delivers high-performance MLPE solutions that advance a zero-carbon future.
