ULTRA-1400.0-TL

The largest solar power inverter in the Power-One

Aurora product range, the new UTLTRA-1400.0 unit is
designed with large utility-grade installations in mind.
This liquid-cooled, high-powered Aurora inverter
is the largest PV inverter available in the market.
The compact chassis gives maximum power for the
minimum footprint.
Industry-leading power conversion efficiencies of
up to 98.7%, combined with high-speed Maximum
Power Point Tracking (MPPT) channels, optimize
energy harvesting across a wide array of operating
conditions. Up to four independent MPPT input
channels oer maximum flexibility and energy
harvesting.
This large inverter system significantly reduces
the wiring requirements and on-site testing thanks
to the presence of separated and dedicated
compartments for DC and AC.

Features
High performance utility grade inverter for large utility PV installations with 98.7% efficiency
Outdoor enclosure for unrestricted use under any environmental conditions
Passive liquid cooling with total segregation of internal compartments assuring a 5-year maintenance cycle
Reduced susceptibility to a single fault. In case of a component failure, a maximum of 350kW will be lost
Extended MPPT input voltage range
Direct transformerless conversion to the 690 Vac output reduces AC distribution cost
Maximum input voltage up to 1100 Vdc, high design flexibility and reduced DC distribution losses for large scale PV
plants
Integrated DC and AC distribution and protection. Fully equipped for connection, additional accessories not required
Easy installation and maintenance procedure. Front extractible DC/AC converters and accessibility to all critical parts
Ethernet communication and two independent RS-485 communication interfaces for
inverter and intelligent string combiner monitoring
Compliant to BDEW and FERC 661
