Metrel MI3115 1500V Solar PV Analyser

The Metrel MI3115 1500V Solar PV Analyser allows user to test photovoltaic systems with ease and high-precision, in accordance with the IEC 62446 standards. The MI3115 supports all category 1 and 2 tests and measurements, like the measurement of PV strings, the conversion of measured values to STC values, or whatever test the user requires. The instrument is also able to wirelessly acquire irradiation and temperature of PV modules, with these able to be collated in real time with ease.

With the ability to correct parameters that have previously been incorrectly inputted on already executed measurements, the MI3115 has a plethora of testing options. The instrument is controlled through a large colour touch screen display, on which the user can prepare and start tests and measurements, store results, and then review them in a numerical or graphical form. These results can then be organised and searched through, making the MI3115 an extremely useful tool for photovoltaic analysis.

The MI3115 can be applied and used for a wide range of testing, which are as follows:

  • The testing of 1500 V Photovoltaic plants
  • Periodic testing
  • Maintenance testing
  • Evaluation and troubleshooting
  • Report generation
  • Renewable energy sources - STC values and performance of PV panels

The analyser meets several safety standards, ensuring that the user can confidently use it in a range of environments. An IP54 rating (with a closed cover) shows the durability of the MI3115, whilst IEC/EN 61010-1 ensures the user is safe during operation.

Metrel Electrical Safety Manager

The Metrel Electrical Safety Manager software allows the user to manage a wide tange of Metrel's electrical safety testers, portable appliance testers, machine testers, transformer testers, earthing testers, and industrial safety testers. The application has an easy-to-use, navigatable interface, which has the same view as Metrel instruments. The downloaded measurement results can be viewed, analysed, edited, and finally a professional report can be created and printed.
