The A89DC-08 Solar Current Monitor (SCM) provides users of photovoltaic solar arrays with direct real time access to the generation capacity of their renewable applications. The SCM is an 8 channel Modbus RTU based direct current monitor specifically designed for solar installations.

By providing users with real time average generation capacities of each active channel, the module can generate alarms based upon user selectable thresholds. For example, if one cell on an array were to be generating less than the current average of the overall installation by a user selectable predetermined percentage, an alarm would be activated notifying the user. By using this now readily available data, users are able to circumvent days, sometimes weeks of losses in their solar arrays generation capab ilities through proactive maintenance and monitoring.

Features:
  • A89DC-08 is a breakthrough DC current monitor that simple and cost effective to install
  • Specifically engineered to monitor DC current production in solar/PV applications
  • Eight seperate hall effect sensors monitor multiple lines and provide measurements per channel as well as totals
  • Alarm options provide notification when one channel deviates from the system average. This can provide alerts for failed solar panels or strings of panels.
  • RS485 Modbus output supports up to 32 devices per wire segment, and may be expanded with additional hardware
  • Use “Plug and play” connectivity for supported devices to the Obvius AcquiSuite data acquisition server
