The Conext SW is the solution of choice
Conext SW inverter/charger features
• The integrated auto-transformer allows the use of an on-site
single phase (120Vac) generator to provide input power
to the Conext SW inverter and create a split phase output
power (120/240Vac North America only).
• AC-coupled Smart Charge ensures that batteries are
charged only from PV power when AC-coupled. It provides
power to charge batteries when excess PV power is
available, load requirements are met, and energy is available
for export to the grid.
• AC and DC coupling capability and easily adapts to PV
retrofit scenarios.
• Enhanced grid support in DC-coupled PV with Xanbus
enabled MPPT chargers ensures surplus PV is exported to
the grid without cycling batteries. This increases battery life.
• Dead battery charging revives batteries that have been
accidentally discharged in unattended sites, over an
extended period, past the point that normal chargers can not
recover them.
• Frequency shift charging curtails PV inverters when
excess energy is available after the requirements of battery
charging and load power are met, eliminating the need for
diversion loads and achieving proper 3-stage charging.
• Highest surge rating in its class with 2 x maximum
continuous output power up to 7000 Watts will start the
toughest loads.
• Advanced self-consumption features of grid-support, peak-
shaving, timer based charger block and time-of-use settings
reduce the useage and cost of electricity.
• Generator support allows power to be automatically drawn
from the batteries to assist a small efficient AC generator to
support heavy loads.
• The lowest tare loss in its class and a timer based invert
block feature ensures maximum conservation of energy
under ideal use conditions.
Conext ComBox is an advanced monitoring device
with a web based user-interface, embedded data-
logger for capturing performance data to analyze
trends and a communication gateway to send
notifications and reports by emails. It is a must have
for any Conext SW installation.
XANBUS enabled networking - Plug and Play system
1. Plug and play devices load directly into the control panel. No
need to set any addressing because they are auto-detected.
2. Support daisy chain wiring, no need to run all wires into a
single hub, therefore simplifies the cabling.
3. Standard CAT 5 Ethernet cable for communications wiring,
avoids mistakes in the field and easy to source.
4. Single communication bus for interaction between various
devices, firmware upgrade, data-logging.
5. Highly robust, no dependency on external master, all units
behave autonomously.
