BALANCE OF SYSTEMS

BALANCE OF SYSTEMS

Components designed to simplify system installation while adding safety and regulatory compliance where needed.

 

SAFETY AND COMPLIANCE

The FLEXware® ICS Plus combiner box complies with new NEC 2014 requirements for PV installations—including arc fault protection, PV rapid shutdown and DC load-break disconnecting means. It is also the first-end-to-end solution listed to UL 1741 with photovoltaic rapid shutdown systems (PVRSS) for both battery-based and grid-direct systems. As with the ICS, it comes pre-integrated to save labor time and costs, and also comes pre-packaged to streamline ordering.

The FLEXware ICS offers value, simplicity, and ease of installation in a single solution. The pre-integrated design saves labor time in the field and cuts down on installation costs. With the new combiner solution, OutBack Power™ achieves another first: a single-brand solution that is UL 1741 listed from roof to battery. This makes us truly “one stop shopping” for any system installer or designer looking for a safe, fully-compliant solution.

OutBack Power's FLEXware PV Combiner Series sets the new standard for PV balance of system hardware. Ideal for both small or large systems, the FLEXware PV8 and FLEXware PV12 accommodates the overcurrent protection requirements of your application. From 150VDC breakers for low voltage PV systems, to 600VDC fuse holders for high voltage PV systems, the FLEXware PV Combiner Series handles it all.

 

INTEGRATION PRODUCTS

We offer a full line of integration hardware designed to complement our power electronics products, reduce the time of installation and meet local electrical codes. It is our goal to engineer and build attractive, flexible and well-designed integration hardware that is built to last.

 

SYSTEM MANAGEMENT

OutBack Power's proprietary communication network enables all our products to communicate with each other, providing a seamless setup and user experience across all components of an OutBack system.

Our product line currently includes a variety of communication devices for maximum flexibility and control of renewable energy systems. The MATE family includes the MATE, MATE2,MATE3 and MATE3s communication devices, all of which make it easier than ever to program and monitor a complete OutBack Power system.

The HUB system communications manager forms the backbone of a networked OutBack Power power conversion system. The FLEXnet DC is the ultimate DC system monitoring device with integrated networked communications capabilities.
