APsystems QS1 Microinverter NOW SHIPPING

/in /by

The APsystems QS1, an innovative four-module, single-phase microinverter for residential applications, is now shipping.

A bold step forward in microinverter technology, the QS1 offers 300% faster installation time, while offering the highest peak output power and up to 3X faster data transmission speed than PLC. A wider MPPT voltage range will result in a greater energy harvest for homeowners.

The first of its kind, the QS1 is designed to accommodate today’s high output PV panels up to 375W, offering 300W AC output per channel, highest in the microinverter segment. The unit significantly reduces installation time and costs, taking the place of four conventional microinverters per each QS1 installed while providing independent MPPT for each module.

The QS1 shares common AC trunk cabling with APsystems’popular dual-module YC600 microinverter, offering flexible mix-and-match compatibility on the same circuit to enhance site design capability and maximize circuit capacity. Both microinverters utilize the same gateways; installers can choose from the ECU-R, for single or multi-residential installations, or the ECU-C, for applications requiring consumption monitoring and advanced contact/relay features.

The QS1 builds on the successful APsystems line of multi-module microinverters, simplifying installation while reducing installer costs and time on the job site.

QS1 features include:

  • Four-module microinverter with independent MPPT
  • 300% faster installation than conventional microinverters
  • 300VA peak output per channel
  • Accommodates modules up to 375W
  • Wide MPPT voltage range (22V-45V)
  • Meets NEC 2014/2017 690.12 Rapid Shutdown requirements
  • Ultra-fast 2.4 GHz ZigBee communications & Free Monitoring

Contact your local distributor or sales.emea@APsystems.com to bring the QS1 to your customers today.

Held every 2 years and bringing together over 550 exhibitors and 30000 professional visitors working in renewable energies, sustainable buildings and technologies, Bepositive has become a real meeting place  for exchanges between solar installers, manufacturers, specifiers and more.

With offices based in Rotterdam, Netherlands since 2015 and Lyon, France since 2016, the entire European APsystems team will be delighted to welcome you to stand 6L29 where we will present the full range of multi-module micro-inverters perfectly suited to residential and commercial solar.

Come and discover the new DUO YC600 and QUAD QS1 micro-inverters, two single-phase micro-inverters, with independant MPPT per module and using the same cables and accessories for higher flexibility and faster installation.

 

The QS1 has been shortlisted to participate in the BePOSITIVE Award competition, which will take place on February 13 at 5 pm

QS1 technology builds on APsystems’ successful multi-module microinverter family, offering lower logistics costs, integrated ZigBee communication and connection capabilities, and a wider MPPT voltage range for greater energy harvest in low light conditions.

Founded in 2009 in Silicon Valley in the United States, APsystems has grown to become the world’s number 2 in the solar inverter microinverter segment. Offering a wide range of micro-inverter solutions ideal for residential and large roofs, APsystems continues to be a leader in photovoltaic innovation worldwide.
