Harvest the power of the sun

Maximum energy harvest

The Eaton Power Xpert Solar250 kW inverters are based onEatons mature PowerChainManagement solutions,which incorporate Eatonprogrammable logic controllers(PLCs), advanced variablefrequency drives and protectiverelays. Every critical componentinside the Power Xpert inverteris proven to be reliable basedon the known life cycles of high-volume industrial and electricalcontrol equipment.

Earliest startuplatestshutdown with DC excitationand zero load grid sync

Minimized offline nuisanceevents with superior faulttolerance of a utility-gradeelectric protection relay

At the heart of the Eaton PowerXpert Solar 250 kW inverteris the Eaton active front end(AFE) technology, which isproven to reliably operatein harsh environments with24-hours-a-day, 7-days-a-weekoperation cycles over decades.

Operations and maintenance

The Eaton Power Xpert Solar250 kW inverter is designed tooperate as consistently as thesun rises and sets. Insuringyour PV system investment, thePower Xpert is supported by aglobal service infrastructure andbacked by a company with morethan 100 years of performance.

AC/DC circuit terminationsaccessible by side and bottomgland plates with the largest

working volume in the industry

National support and serviceinfrastructure

Extended warranties andservice contracts availablefor long-term maintenance

The Eaton Power XpertSolar 250 kW inverter

is listed to UL1741 for three-phase ut ility

interact ive operation. Backed by a century

of experience with electrical power systems

and a global reputation for excellence.

The Eaton Power Xpert Solar 250 kW invertersconvert sunlight into clean alternating current,with an emphasis on:

Maximum energy harvest

System reliability

Enhanced operations and maintenance

High safety standards

Inverter re-combiner boxwith DC circuit breaker

Optional inverter re-combinebox with DC breakers to meNEC2011 requirementsfor safe DC disconnect,eliminating the need forexternal DC disconnects

DC breaker option eliminatethe need to replace DC fuseallowing cost and time savin(reducing operation andmaintenance costs)

Current sensing of eachDC input is available for arra

zone monitoring; DC inputcurrent is reported to invertcontroller, which makes itavailable via Modbus

DC breakers can be individuturned off, allowing isolationof a defective sub-array whilallowing other sub-arraysto operate
