The Need
The G-Vertor's RECon
Line of solar inverter from E&A is ideal for large-scale solar power
generation which helps reducing the cost of Balance of System(BOS) of entire solar
plant. It complies with all specifications laid down by Ministry of New and Renewable
Energy (MNRE) under National Solar Mission for Solar projects.
Drawing on decades of E&A's expertise in power electronics, the ReCon Line of central
Inverter is highly reliable, efficient and offers essential features designed for
large Solar applications.
The inverter's modular industrial design makes it easy to install, operate and maintain,
which improves the durability and efficiency over the entire life cycle of the inverter.
The built-in MPPT features ensures maximum performance from solar modules under
all operating conditions . Designed for harsh environment, the inverter operates
in a wide operating temperature range of -10°C to +55°C.
It guarantees performance and reliability in tough conditions which makes it an
excellent option for installations across India. Control & Automation also offers
a service contract to cover spare support and warranty extensions.
Recon Line key features:
- Scalable to meet the requirement of megawatt power plant
- Optimised for High efficiency upto 99.3%
- Built-in Control, Protection and power Regulation
- Compliance to country specific grid code requirements
