☀️ Photovoltaic Input and MPPT
The TRIO 27.6 features two independent MPPT trackers, particularly suitable for managing two PV sub-fields with different orientations or operating conditions. The MPPT range is 200–950 V DC, while the indicated full-power operating range is 500–800 V DC. The absolute maximum DC voltage is 1000 V. Each MPPT can handle up to 32 A, with a maximum short-circuit current of 40 A. The S2X version features 5 pairs of DC connections per MPPT.
⚡ AC Output and Operation
The inverter converts the DC energy from the photovoltaic field into 400 V three-phase AC, intended for feed-in to the electrical grid. The nominal power is 27,600 W at 45 °C ambient temperature, with a maximum AC current of 45 A. The technical documentation indicates a maximum AC power of up to approximately 30 kW, depending on operating conditions and grid configuration.
🔧 S2X Version – Equipment
The S2X designation identifies a complete configuration with DC isolator, string fuses, and DC-side surge protection devices. The manual indicates for this version a 40 A / 1000 V isolator, 12 A / 1000 V fuses, and Class II surge protection for each MPPT.
🏭 Installation and Construction
The OUTD model is specifically designed for outdoor as well as indoor installations, with an IP65 enclosure. Cooling is by natural convection and the system is designed for wall mounting. The series documentation indicates dimensions of approximately 1060 × 751 × 291 mm and a weight in the region of 75 kg for the TRIO-27.6 model.
