Once your solar installation has been completed, you want Peace of Mind to ensure you have many happy years of solar energy production.

Power-One’s Aurora inverters offer certain technological features to increase energy harvesting during periods of inclement weather or during partial shading of the solar panels.Power-One’s Aurora Solar Inverters
In basic terms, the inverter controls the energy being produced by the solar panels ensuring the maximum power is being provided to your home and the electricity grid.

The solar power inverter acts simultaneously like both the brain and the heart of your solar system.

Not only does it make all the intelligent decisions regarding power management, it also ‘controls’ the optimum amount of energy where required – either to your home or to the grid.

Aurora Inverter Technology
Power-One’s Aurora inverters offer certain technological features to increase energy harvesting during periods of inclement weather or during partial shading of the solar panels.

The very wide voltage input range of the Aurora inverter allows energy to be harvested at very low levels (ie early morning and late evening) to extend the day’s power production.

The high-speed dual MPPT (maximum power-point tracking) technology also increases energy harvesting by allowing the ability to split the strings of solar panels into two separate channels.High Speed Dual MPPT
The high-speed dual MPPT (maximum power-point tracking) technology also increases energy harvesting by allowing the ability to split the strings of solar panels into two separate channels. If your rooftop is both east and west-facing, the dual MPPT will ensure maximize production independently for the east-facing string of panels in the morning and then later in the day the west-facing string.

MPPT Scanning
MPPT Scanning allows partial shading to have the minimum effect on the energy being delivered by the strings of solar panels. Clouds and other objects like trees covering the panels can reduce the amount of energy being produced throughout the entire string of panels. Independent testing has proved the Aurora inverters offer best-in-class performance in the speed it returns to maximum efficiency.

Maintaining your Inverter
The Aurora power inverter installed within your home is made of robust outdoor casing. Maintenance of your inverter is minimal.

To maintain optimum performance you may wish to keep your inverter clean ensuring the heat sink unit at the top of the inverter remains clear and uncovered.

You can view the amount of energy being produced by your solar inverter in real-time on the LED panel of your inverter. Please review your product manual to learn how to change the view on your inverter’s LED panel.

Troubleshooting
Your product manual should answer any questions you may have about your inverter.

If you have any problems with your solar inverter you should first consult with your installation company.

If this is not successful you can contact Power-One through your local Service office. Contact details are contained within the manual or our website.

Summary
Your Aurora Solar Inverter from Power-One is designed to give you years of trouble-free solar energy.

The aim of Power-One is to manufacture the most efficient, robust and highest performing solar inverter to maximize the energy you harvest through your solar panels for the life of your installation.
