As the world accelerates the pace of green energy transformation, in the past few years, we have been involved in energy storage and photovoltaic projects in many parts of the world, whether it is extreme high temperature deserts, salt spray corrosion challenges of the sea, or extremely cold and snowy places. TE Connectivity’s (” TE “) SOLARLOK series of photovoltaic connectors accompany photovoltaic power plants around the world with reliable quality and stable performance.
1, time-tested and reliable products
PCU1500S7 TE SOLARLOK photovoltaic connector series is used for the DC input side of the inverter, which can ensure the stable input of voltage and current, and the stable operation of long-term low resistance. Our photovoltaic connector test standards are industry-leading, with IP 68 waterproof rating, 1,000 thermal cycles and 50 wet and thermal test cycles, which guarantee long-term stable and reliable operation of our connectors.
2. Trustworthy professional services
Usually, TE is actively involved in the early design of a customer project when the project is established early. Even if the project is overseas, TE’s experts can help customers analyze the specific design performance requirements according to the end customer’s on-site requirements, PCU1500S7 and recommend the appropriate product according to the customer’s requirements. TE will also arrange technical experts to the customer site for technical exchanges, technical personnel related to the user to introduce the product performance match, provide product samples in a timely manner, help customers conduct prototype tests, guide customers to install applications, assist customers to carry out safety testing of the whole product, and minimize the client’s time and energy investment.
3, “battle-hardened” star products
Among the PV projects that TE participated in, the two products with the highest “visibility” were SOLARLOK PV4-S photovoltaic connectors and SOLARLOK PV4-PM photovoltaic connectors.
SOLARLOK PV4-S photovoltaic connector
The standard 1.5kV PV module connector is suitable for direct connection PCU1500S7 of PV module junction boxes, and can also be used for series jumpers and cable connections.
• Reduces power loss
•IP68 waterproof rating (i.e. can be immersed in up to 1 meter of water for up to 24 hours)
• Able to withstand dust, dirt and sand
• NEC 2008/2011 tools are available for decoupling
• UV resistance
SOLARLOK PV4-PM photovoltaic connector
Standard 1.5kV PV module connector for high current connections with centralized inverters, series inverters, micro inverters and DC bus boxes.
• Reduces power loss
•IP68 waterproof rating
• The product is made of engineering materials and has a long service life
• UV resistance
TE’s SOLARLOK series photovoltaic connectors were born in 1983, with more than 40 years of application experience, as well as various projects “big wave sand” type of repeated verification, so far in the world has applied the product of the power station installed capacity of more than 150 GW. This year, there is a SOLARLOK 2.0 series, which is a comprehensive upgrade on the basis of the original product, and the installation can be completed in 30 seconds at the fastest.
