|
|
| An
outstanding addition to the family: The next generation Fronius IG Plus
inverter builds on a successful model with multiple enhancements, including
maximum power harvest, a built-in six circuit string combiner, integrated,
lockable DC Disconnect, significantly improved efficiency, and unbeatable
reliability. New, larger power stages expand the proven Fronius IG family
from 2 to 12 kW in a single inverter. |

Highest
Reliability |
| Get the most power out of every
ray of sunlight. This is achieved through a complex interaction of different
factors: |
The Fronius development team has tested every
detail of the design, ensuring that the Fronius IG Plus line of inverters
will provide exceptional performance under all conditions. |
| |
|
|
| Three efficiency peaks. Greater power harvest for every system size: The unique
automatic transformer switching function of the Fronius IG Plus enables not
one, but three equal efficiency peaks. The result: Consistently high
efficiency over a wide input voltage range. In comparison: The efficiency of
inverters without transformer switching declines steadily with an increasing
input voltage. |
|
|
|
| Smart Ventilation Design. Disruptive ambient factors such as biological
infestations, dust, moisture, or coastal salt air stay outside the new
Fronius IG Plus Inverters away from the circuitry. How: Cool air is drawn in
through a filter screen on the back of the inverter and routed through a
closed channel over the heat sink. This prevents contact between outside air
and the circuit boards while cooling the inverter components ensuring the
inverter operates consistently. All circuit boards are also dipped in
Conformal coating to provide an added measure of protection. |
| |
|
|
| MIX™ Concept. Get
the maximum power harvest out of partial load ranges, e.g. on cloudy days,
through a clever combination of multiple power stages in each inverter. The
power stages in Fronius inverters divide up the work depending on operating
hours and only operate as many power stages as required to efficiently
process available power from the PV array. |
| |
|
|
| Failsafe. You can
rely on Fronius inverters. In the rare event that a power stage fails, the
others will continue to operate. Once the replacement power stage is
delivered, it can be quickly and easily replaced by a service technician,
without having to dismantle the entire inverter. The wiring box, including
all cabling, configurations and data (such as kWh production) remains on the
wall, while your service technician removes two screws, exchanges the power
module, and within five minutes the inverter is repaired. |
| |
|
|
| Module Manager™.
The Module Manager™ keeps all Fronius IG Inverters at the maximum power point
(MPP) with fast and exact MPP tracking, ensuring that you get the most power
out of each ray of sunlight. This is especially important for amorphous
modules whose MPP can be more challenging to track. |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
| Market Leader. With
a 96.2% peak efficiency, the Fronius IG Plus inverter has the highest
efficiency among high frequency inverters. |
Longlasting
Durability. The MIX™ concept increases
the lifespan of the inverter. While several power stages divide up the
operating hours, the new ventilation design keeps them cool, improving
efficiency and lifespan. To ensure unsurpassed performance and long life,
Fronius only uses the highest quality name brand components available in this
new generation of inverters. |
| |
|
|
| The first universal
inverter |
| |
|
|
| Versatility as a
basic principle: The Fronius IG Plus works well with all PV modules and is
suitable for all system sizes. |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
| Compatible with all module configurations. The Fronius IG Plus works optimally with all module types,
including amorphous modules. The Fronius IG Plus works well with all module
types because of its wide input voltage range, galvanic isolation, field
programmable grounding option, and its precise MPP tracking feature. |
Designed for indoor
and outdoor installations. All Fronius IG
Plus inverters have a robust, well-designed aluminum housing. UV- esistance
and corrosion-protection enable them to be used either indoors or outdoors.
Fronius is proud to be one of the only inverters tested and approved to
operate at 55ºC. |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
| Grounding selectable on site. Decide on site what type of grounding is required as the
Fronius IG Plus is field programmable for either positive or negative module
grounding. |
Field programmable
AC output voltage. The Fronius IG Plus
inverter line from 3.0 to 11.4 kW is field programmable to 208, 240 or 277
volts (Fronius IG Plus 12.0 kW only available in 277 volts), eliminating the
need to install different inverter models to accommodate three-phase
installations. |
| |
|
|
| The new power plug system. The connection area and power stages are installed
separately from each other. Very easy, and extremely safe: The connection
area is attached to the wall as normal. Then the power stage is simply
plugged in. The power plug connects both
parts into one secure unit. If service is required, the connection
area remains on the wall, maintaining all settings and configurations. |
| |
|
|
| Universal product design. The functional principle is identical in the entire
Fronius IG Plus inverter family. This means that if you are familiar with any
of the Fronius IG Plus inverters, you can also operate and service all other
inverters. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
| Integrated DC disconnect. No external DC disconnect installation or cabling is
necessary. The Fronius IG Plus comes complete with an approved, built-in,
lockable and load breakable DC Disconnect. |
