Magnetek's Aurora PVI-Central 50kW and 100kW photovoltaic inverters have been tested and listed to UL standards for grid connected operation on the utility grid throughout the US and Canada.

Magnetek's PVI-Central-50 and PVI-Central-100 grid-tied systems are designed for commercial solar applications such as big box retail office, apartment, and industrial facilities; or ground mount installations.

Aurora PVI-Central 50/100kW photovoltaic inverters

Aurora's maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm maximises energy produced under varying light conditions.

The inverter's insulated gate bi-polar transistors (IGBTs) reduce thermal energy losses for optimum performance.

The PVI-Central-50 is a turnkey solution for connection to low-voltage public utilities.

Using integrated light sensors, it offers night-time disconnection of the transformer to eliminate undesired losses.

A string combiner box is optionally available to parallel, protect and monitor all of the photovoltaic strings and to enhance the monitoring and diagnostic capabilities of the system.

PVI-Central-100 grid-tied systems feature scalability in a common-enclosure package that is delivered pre-configured and pre-tested.

In addition to reducing on-site installation wiring and testing, this technology provides cost-effective solutions with smaller footprints and increased reliability.

Applications flexibility is enhanced by the availability of models with and without isolation transformers that are self-contained within the inverter rack.

The development of these inverters was in response to the rapidly growing global demand for environmentally friendly power sources.

Aurora solar inverters are manufactured by Power-One.

Magnetek has exclusive distribution rights for the Commercial PV Aurora product line in North America, and markets them under the Magnetek brand label.
