What is a solar iboost+?

The Solar iBoost+ is one of the best-selling PV immersion controllers preferred by many solar installers and electrical professionals. It saves you money by cutting water heating costs and reducing the use of your home’s boiler. Fitting a Solar iBoost can help to maximise the consumption of the solar energy generated at your property.

Which Isolar controller is best for solar thermal systems?

Solar Panels Plus features the line of iSolar controllers. The iSolar series is manufactured specifically for solar thermal applications, and has a variety of options, add-ons, and customizable features. The SPP iSolar 2 is a solar controller for solar thermal systems.

What is the SPP Isolar BX solar controller?

The SPP iSolar BX is a multi-function solar controller with a number of add-on functions and relay controls. The iSolar BX solar controller can be used to control your solar hot water or solar space heating systems, or can be customized to control any number of other solar related applications.

Why is PV module temperature measurement important?

PV module temperature measurement is decisive as solar cell performance is highly dependent on the temperature. The efficiency of PV cells typically decreases as the temperature rises. The decrease needs to be taken into account when calculating the performance ratio.

How does temperature affect the efficiency of PV cells?

The efficiency of PV cells typically decreases as the temperature rises. The decrease needs to be taken into account when calculating the performance ratio. This provides a more precise evaluation of your PV system’s productivity and thus also prompt fault detection.

Why is ambient temperature important for a PV system?

This provides a more precise evaluation of your PV system’s productivity and thus also prompt fault detection. Measuring the ambient temperature can detect reduced yields caused by ambient conditions such as ice formation and thus prevent unnecessary servicing visits.
