Shifting environmental factors constantly challenge the efficiency of solar arrays; dust, debris and shade can drastically lower power output. With a conventional “string” inverter system, the least-performing module determines the productivity of the entire array – so the shadow of a single leaf will compromise the whole system.

APsystems microinverters give you more power, independently optimizing the output from each solar module. If one module is shaded, all the other modules in your array will still operate at full power. Built into each APsystems microinverter is a function called Maximum Power Point Tracking. Working at hundreds of times per second, the APsystems microinverter continually finds the greatest possible module power, greatly increasing overall system performance.

APsystems microinverter installations are typically 5-15 percent more efficient than comparable “string” systems. That’s like having more solar modules on your roof with the same-sized array.

The APsystems microinverter solution combines highly efficient solar harvesting and power conversion with our high-tech data collection and communication program – giving you real-time performance and efficiency about your solar array. The APsystems Energy Communication Unit, or ECU collects module performance data and sends it to an internet database.

The APsystems Energy Monitoring and Analysis, or EMA software allows around-the-clock management of your solar array through any web-enabled device, like your home computer or smartphone.

The APsystems microinverter is the affordable, flexible solution for your solar power array. The compact, independent design allows easy installation on virtually any available surface, and because it is an integrated system, the APsystems microinverter solution simplifies system design. Solar arrays can be easily expanded at any time, hassle-free.

Additionally, the APsystems microinverter solution gives solar installers a competitive advantage and, when fully utilized, enables installers to install faster and generate more profit than competing systems of the same capacity.

Unlike central inverters with high DC voltages in the hundreds of volts, APsystems microinverters tie directly to the low-voltage PV module and connect to the public power grid via standard AC voltages – enhancing worker and homeowner safety, and eliminating the possibility of high-voltage DC “arc” fires.
