--------------------------

The PV210 provides a highly efficient and effective test and diagnostic solution for PV systems, carrying out all commissioning tests required by IEC 62446 and performing fast and accurate measurement of I-V curves in accordance with IEC 61829. When used in conjunction with the Solar Survey 200R irradiance meter, the PV210 measurement data can be converted to STC, using either the PVMobile app or SolarCert Elements software, allowing direct comparison with the PV module manufacturer’s published data.

With direct connection to individual PV modules or strings using the supplied lead sets, tests can be conducted easily and within a matter of seconds at the press of a single button.

A high contrast display is clearly visible in direct sunlight and shows open circuit voltage, short circuit current, maximum power point voltage, current and power, as well as the fill factor of the PV module or system under test, and insulation resistance (as part of an auto sequence or a discrete probe to probe measurement). If the measured curve deviates from the expected profile, the PV210 alerts the user to this, identifying the need for further analysis.

Detailed and color I-V and power curves, can be viewed instantly once data is transferred to the PVMobile Android app using wireless NFC connectivity. PVMobile displays measured I-V and power curves for visual analysis of the curve shape, enabling common problems such as shading, defective cells or poor electrical connections to be identified.

►Instantly view detailed I-V and power curves in the field using the Android PVMobile App Simply touch an NFC-enabled Android device running the PVMobile app to your PV210. Detailed I-V characteristic measurements are transferred, allowing the I-V and power curve to be viewed in full color detail. PVMobile also enables I-V curve correction for standard test conditions (STC 1000 W/m2, 25°C) using irradiance and temperature data from the Survey 200R irradiance meter, to allow comparison with manufacturer’s curve data, included in the comprehensive PVMobile database.

► With the PVMobile Android App you can: View I-V and power curves in full color and high definition detail Pinch and zoom to observe deviations from a normal curve, and to see Mpp region in more detail Select points on the curve to read actual voltage and current Transfer data back to the office from a remote location* View I-V curves and measurement data clearly, even in direct sunlight Avoid the need to take a laptop on-site Transfer measurement data to the PVMobile App instantly by touching your NFC-enabled Android device against the PV210

► Lightweight, handheld and fast Extremely portable, lightweight and battery powered, the PV210 is easy to move around when testing several strings in a system. Commissioning tests, irradiance, temperature and I-V characteristics can all be recorded at the press of a button.**

► Cost effective and efficient PV diagnostic tool Comprehensive measurement features with easy-to-use one button testing provides the ideal solution for periodic testing, performance analysis and fault diagnosis.

► All-in-one commissioning tests and I-V curve tracing Easily carry out all performance, safety and diagnostic checks on PV systems using the same fast and simple test instrument.

► Easy and fast push button operation The PV210 offers an extremely fast testing solution, carrying out all electrical tests in a matter of seconds, for straightforward and hassle free testing of even the largest of PV systems.

► Tests individual PV modules or strings Directly connect the PV210 to an individual module or a full string, and choose whether to carry out a full auto sequence test or an individual test, depending on your requirements.

► Clear results display, even in direct sunlight The PV210 display screen is clearly visible even in direct sunlight, ensuring you are able to complete the testing process in the fastest time possible, and view measurements at a glance.

► Wirelessly receive irradiance and temperature measurements from Solar Survey 200R Using Seaward SolarlinkTM connectivity, the PV210 can wirelessly capture and record real-time irradiance, ambient temperature and PV module temperature measurements from the Survey 200R multifunction irradiance meter (available as part of the SolarlinkTM Test Kit). This means that all measurements can be recorded simultaneously, as required by the IEC 62446 and IEC 61829 standards.

► Full traceability of system performance The PV210 has a large onboard  memory which stores up to 999 sets of PV test and diagnostic data, ensuring large systems can be tested continuously, and enabling test data to be downloaded to a PC, in CSV format, for full traceability.

► Compatible with SolarCert Elements v2 software When used with the optional SolarCert Elements v2 software program, test and measurement data can be stored alongside other system information to produce comprehensive records. Measured data can be converted to STC for comparison with manufacturer’s data held in the comprehensive database. In addition, professional inspection and test reports can be prepared, including IEC 62446 measurements and IEC 61829 I-V curve plots.

*Data export from PVMobile is a premium feature and requires subscription.
**Irradiance and temperature measurements require Solar Survey 200R, available separately or as part of the Solarlink Test Kit.
