Zwoenitz, 14 January 2016. The leading independent PV monitoring company, Gantner Instruments, is presenting its latest solutions for monitoring, data collection and plant control at the World Future Energy Summit in Abu Dhabi from January 18 to 21, booth # 7323. With offices in Europe, Asia and the US, and representatives in 32 countries, the company has developed efficient solutions for maximizing the performance of PV systems, reducing downtime, increasing yield and maintaining international standards.
The new solution for monitoring on string level “string.bloxx All-in-one” recognizes design and production errors with high resolution down to PV module level. It combines DC measurement, fuses, overvoltage protection and communication, leading to an improved ROI and a cost reduction of 30 per cent compared with standard concepts. The significant reduction of interfaces leads to reduced risk and faster plant installation time.
