The power generation of photovoltaic power plants is determined by many factors. The inverter is usually installed outdoors, even in direct sunlight, and the internal temperature of the inverter will increase accordingly in the high temperature environment in summer. The high temperature environment may also cause the inverter to over-temperature and load-drop protection, affecting the power generation of the power station. Therefore, the heat dissipation performance of the inverter is one of the important factors affecting the power generation efficiency and service life.
How solar inverter cope with high temperature weather
1. Ensure smooth air circulation around the inverter. Do not install the inverter in a small and closed environment. If multiple inverters are installed on the same place, it is necessary to ensure sufficient distance between each inverter. This not only It can ensure the ventilation and heat dissipation of the inverter, and there is enough operating space for later maintenance.
2. Although the protection level of the inverter is IP66 or IP65, it can prolong the service life of the inverter by reducing the chance of the inverter being exposed to wind, sun and rain. When installing the inverter, you can choose to install it at the bottom of the solar panels or under the eaves. If the inverter is installed on the roof of the color steel tile, it is recommended to install the awning synchronously, which can not only shelter from the wind and rain, but also reduce the direct sunlight.
3. After the inverter is installed, it is necessary to pay attention to the later maintenance. Regularly clean the fan, fan cover or heat sink to ensure the heat dissipation and cooling of the inverter. Usually, intelligent air cooling technology is used to dissipate the heat of the inverter, and the fan will intelligently adjust the speed according to the internal temperature of the inverter. When the inverter works in a high temperature environment, the intelligent air cooling technology can effectively reduce the probability of load reduction and ensure that the inverter can run stably while extending the service life of the fan.
