DC combiner box "DCCBs"

Customized monitored and passive DC combiner boxes

In large solar systems monitoring and troubleshooting becomes more complex.

Each operator is interested in finding errors in a module, string, or a group quickly because they can reduce the amount of energy produced and the life of the system greatly. With the help of the Generator Connection Box the individual solar module strands of a photovoltaic system can be connected in parallel and connected to larger wire cross sections to the inverter.

With the integrated string.bloxx it is possible to monitor inverter-independent precisely the DC side of photovoltaic systems. The data exchange between a string bloxx and superior management system can be direct by the open standard Modbus RTU Bus.

With the help of DC Combiner Boxes (DCCBs) the individual solar module strands of a photovoltaic system can be connected in parallel and connected to larger wire cross sections to the inverter. Passive DCCBs do not measure the currents or other parameters on string level.

We develop passive DCCBs according to the individual needs of our clients with flexible number of string inputs and with/without fuses.
