Maximum efficiency at high ambient temperatures
With this new design concept, the SLX series achieves peak efficiencies up to 98% and works at ambient temperatures of 50°C at maximum efficiency without derating. All of the components remain optimally cooled, due in part to its liquid cooled design for semi-conductors and inductors, which use our patented ShowerPower® switching technology. This integrated technology is equipped with speed-controlled fans and pumps to avoid internal pollution and lengthen maintenance intervals - even in dusty regions.
Easy operation and logging
An LCD display shows the unit's operating status, and a built-in data logger records and sends performance and operational data. Offering the best in communication capabilities, the SLX allows pyronometer, wind-speed indicator, and temperature sensors to work in parallel. All data is recorded and stored from each unit to be transmitted daily via modem or an optional Internet connection.
Versatile and economical
Danfoss SLX inverters are easy to use, flexible to integrate and simple to install - all while keeping maintenance low. The SLX central inverter takes the pain out of installation by delivering a pad-mounted solution, which results in a quicker start up time. SLX central inverters are built to reduce total cost of ownership for Utility scale PV power plants. They achieve this through a design that offers faster installation, maximized uptime, and reduced maintenance.

Dynapower - MAXIMIZE PRODUCTION AND REVENUES WITH SOLAR PLUS STORAGE
The addition of energy storage to an existing or new utility-scale PV installation allows system owners and operators the opportunity to capture additional revenues. Traditional storage plus solar applications have involved the coupling of independent storage and PV inverters at an AC bus or the use of multi-input hybrid inverters. An alternative approach - coupling energy storage to PV arrays with a DC-to-DC converter - can help maximize production and profits for existing and new utility-scale installations. DC-Coupled Utility-Scale Solar Plus Storage leads to higher round-trip efficiencies and lower cost of integration with existing PV arrays and at the same time, opens up new revenue streams not possible with traditional AC-coupled storage, including clipping recapture and low voltage harvesting, while being eligible for valuable tax incentives.
