SOLAZONE HOMEPAGE


Grid Connected Inverters


By Investing in your own solar power system you can protect yourself from rising electricity prices and join thousands of home owners nationwide in helping themselves, the environment, and the world.
By investing in a renewable energy source, like solar power, you are helping to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, and reduce dependence on the hydrocarbon economy. In the mean time, you can now reduce or eliminate your current and future electricity bills, and obtain energy independence for yourself and your family. When your solar power system generates more electricity than is currently being used, your electricity meter spins backwards as you accrue credit with your electricity retailer. Then while your system is not producing power, you spend those credits that you have accrued; it's like a savings account for your lights.
So now you control your electricity bills while enhancing the resale value of your home. You may not have to face the entire expense of installing this new solar system yourself; all Australian states and even some local councils have rebates for renewable energy programs. To find out more please contact us, or a solar dealer near you, and find out today how owning a solar system can become a reality.


Grid-connected inverters convert your solar power into electricity suitable for the grid
Here, a battery bank is not necessary for storage of any excess generated power, as it can be delivered directly into the power grid for someone else to use. At times of insufficient solar power (e.g. night time), abundant power may be drawn back from the grid

Solazone supply several brands of grid inverters, and recommend any of these models for their reliability, quality and value, and their tested reliability under local conditions

Latronics PV Edge Grid Interactive Inverter





  PV EDGEGRID INVERTER


  PV EDGE Diagram

Amazing Aussie-made grid inverter to suit the average-size home's solar system
- made on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland.



This brand new second generation grid-inverter usually operates directly from the solar array, using it's built-in maximum power point tracker, but it can also operate from a battery bank that is charged by any combination of solar panels, wind or micro hydro. A truly versatile inverter.

Designed and built in Queensland, it incorporates a highly efficient toroidal transformer, and includes carefully rated dc and ac circuit breakers.

Aussie Innovation at its Best!

The unprecendented flexibility of this product makes it highly practical:
Not only can the PV Edge operate in a simple maintenance free system with solar modules only, but you can also connect it to batteries to allow the use of other renewable energy sources such as wind or micro hydro turbines.
Alternatively, you combine the PV Edge with one of our standalone inverters for a fail safe power system that exports excess energy to the grid, and also provides emergency back up power should the grid fail.
Your very own Solar Powered Uninterruptible Power Supply.

Features
AC and DC Circuit Breakers included for easy operation and minimising installation time and costs
The Solar array is held at the optimum voltage and continually monitored to achieve maximum power output
Galvanic isolation provides optimal protection for your system and household
The latest low loss switching technology and a high efficiency Toroidal Transformer maximises output even during minimal Solar Radiation


The Latronics PV Edge comes in two models:
