Chint Power Systems (CPS), a leader in commercial PV inverters, today announced the compatibility of the 50-kW and 60-kW commercial inverters with Tigo’s TS4 platform. These commercial inverters are compliant with NEC 2017’s Rapid Shutdown specifications with Tigo’s exclusive UL certification. CPS commercial inverters are shipping now.
Tigo conducted extensive testing to validate the effective performance of the systems together in standard operating environments, as outlined in a declaration of operational compliance last year. CPS’s three-phase string inverters, SCA50/60KTL, can be used successfully in combination with the following TS4 product families from Tigo:
• Integrated TS4: -D, -M, -F, -S, -O, -L
• Retrofit Add-On TS4-R: -M, -F, -S, -O
Integrating PLC control allows CPS to offer its commercial customers various benefits to the TS4-F “out of the box” Rapid Shutdown solution. The reduced installation time, fewer components, and less SKU registrations keep BOS costs at a minimum and all projects cost-effective. In combination with Tigo’s TS4 Platform of interchangeable junction box covers, different functionalities can be added and upgraded to any CPS compatible system. Plus, with a single point of contact, Tigo’s superior monitoring software and online portal allow customers to check module-level and inverter monitoring anywhere, anytime.
“The value MLPE provides today is clear. Not only can these products boost performance but now provide a level of safety our industry has needed and mandated. CPS is proud to partner with Tigo to afford our customers the ability to design and build safer systems with the benefit of increased performance.” says Sarah Ozga, product manager at CPS America.
“Tigo is very pleased to integrate not only our reliable Rapid Shutdown solution with CPS, but also offer our values of performance, bankability, and cost leadership to our mutual customers in the U.S,” says Danny Eizips, VP of hardware at Tigo. “CPS’s impressive market share in the American commercial PV market is a notable gain to our partner portfolio.”
