Solectria Renewables Introduces New Disconnecting String Combiner
Solectria Renewables LLC introduced the new Disconnecting String Combiners (DISCOM’s) at Solar Power International. The DISCOM allows installers, maintenance crews and first responders to turn off power near the DC source, greatly enhancing PV system safety. The disconnecting string combiners are compliant with UL 1741, CSA C22.2#107.1 and help installers meet the latest National Electric Safety Code (2011 NEC) requirements for de-energizing DC output circuits.
Each of the Disconnecting String Combiners (DISCOM 3R and DISCOM 4) has a UL98B load-break rated switch at the core of the combiner that is capable of safely shutting down the DC homerun circuits, even at full power. The Disconnecting String Combiners are available with 4 to 30 input circuits and are available in NEMA 3R, 4, and 4X enclosures. DISCOM builds on Solectria Renewables’ successful STRCOM product line, proven to perform in the harshest conditions, by providing additional surge suppression, high-reliability compression connection option, live part protection and more space for conduit entry.
“Solectria Renewables continues to expand its string combiner line to include more safety features and options our customers have been asking for,” said Michael Zuercher-Martinson, CTO of Solectria Renewables. “Our new DISCOMs meet the growing market demand for low cost, lightweight, reliable solutions with NEC and utility expected safety features.”
