SAJ launches microinverter with 97,50% efficiency

A SAJ will launch for the Brazilian market de microinverters o model M2, designed to match the highest power photovoltaic modules currently available.

The product has current de maximum input de 20 A, maximum efficiency de 97,50% e gray de protection IP67. “SAJ’s M2 microinverter represents a significant advance for the production of solar energy in Brazil, where the market seeks an affordable cost, but combined with effective benefits.”

“It will soon be available on the Brazilian market through SAJ partner distributors. In this equation, the M2's exceptional efficiency and reliability make it a standout choice for those looking to adopt solar energy projects,” the company emphasized.

According to the manufacturer, microinverters are playing a fundamental role in the expansion of photovoltaic energy, as their ability to maximize efficiency, allow individual monitoring, simplify expandability and provide greater tolerance to shading, make them essential.

“In this context, the introduction of SAJ's M2 microinverter in Brazil marks an important step in the promotion of solar energy, as in addition to boosting the technology of these devices, expanding their potential, it constitutes an affordable and effective option for consumers in the country” , they scored.

Features of microinverters

In conventional photovoltaic energy systems, a single inverter is responsible for the entire set of solar panels. In this context, the efficiency of the entire installed system can be compromised, with just one panel not working correctly, due to various problems, such as shading and dirt.

With regard to microinverters, they are installed individually, in each solar panel, thus making each unit operate independently and optimized.

Furthermore, another main distinction between microinverters and centralized inverters lies in the way they are installed and function, that is, they have a critical function in converting the energy generated by the modules, transforming the direct current, produced by the panels, into alternating current.

Therefore, they play a fundamental role in solar energy systems, resulting in a series of notable benefits. Below are the advantages listed by SAJ:

1. Maximizes the efficiency of energy production: with the use of microinverters, several problems, even minor ones, in a single panel, do not affect the overall performance of the system. In view of this, each module can operate at its maximum energy generation potential, increasing the overall efficiency of that system;
2. It makes individual monitoring possible: this capability, which is a crucial feature of microinverters, enables rapid detection and, subsequently, resolution of problems, which results in much more effective maintenance and, of course, less downtime;
3. It has simplified expandability: adding new panels to the system made it possible to size a central inverter for this new capacity. With microinverters this is no longer necessary, which provides flexibility to solar system owners;
4. Has tolerance to shading: systems that use microinverters have greater tolerance to shading. A shaded panel does not affect the performance of the others, unlike traditional systems, where shading on a single panel can compromise the entire system;
5. It has longevity: in practice, both modules and microinverters have similar durability and useful life, thus guaranteeing a reliable and long-lasting system;
6. Safety factor: in this regard, compared to central inverters, microinverters operate at lower voltages, significantly reducing electrical risks, in addition to making the technology safer for installation and maintenance.
