Maximizing PV site safety
Wherever the ONE Controller with C&I’s Firefighter Gateway solution is in operation, firefighters can immediately stop production of a SolarEdge PV system, either manually through an emergency stop button* or automatically through a fire alarm control panel system. This automatically reduces string voltage to a safe voltage using the unique SolarEdge SafeDC™ feature.
Clear visual confirmation that high DC voltage has been safely reduced is also possible via an optional external display*.
* Must be sourced locally, not supplied by SolarEdge
Maximum flexibility with two modes of operation
- In Manual Mode, the system can be manually shut down in non-emergency situations using a locally supplied emergency stop button
- In Automatic Mode, shutdown occurs automatically when the fire alarm control panel is triggered.
No external interaction is required. Once activated, the Firefighter Gateway solution signals to the ONE for C&I software platform that the PV system has been shut down, and an alert will be generated.
