The Fluke PVA1537-283/PV Solar Tools Kit combines the PVA-1500HE2 High-Efficiency PV Analyzer/I-V Curve Tracer with the 1537 Insulation Resistance Tester, 283 FC/PV Solar Digital Multimeter and a283 FC Wireless Current Clamp Set, and various accessories. This kit is tailored for advanced solar PV analysis on systems up to 1500V. Ideal for professionals who need to validate insulation, module performance, and monitor system current and voltage, both safety and efficiency are supported in one convenient bundle.
The PVA-1500HE2 High-Efficiency PV Analyzer/I-V Curve Tracer is designed to measure PV system performance. With this high-precision testing equipment, users can reliably assess the health and performance of solar modules and arrays to make informed decisions to enhance their output and longevity. An array of advanced features, including high throughput I-V curve tracing, provides quick and detailed performance data. The intuitive user interface enables easy navigation and real-time analysis for immediate identification of potential issues. By pinpointing problems early, users can maximize solar energy production and minimize downtime.
The 1537 Insulation Resistance Tester is engineered to simplify frontline troubleshooting whether on the factory floor or working in the field at a solar installation. With user-selectable test voltages from 250V to 2500V and resistance measurements up to 500 GΩ, this tester allows users to cover more workload with a single tool. Equipped with an intuitive user interface, a short circuit current of up to 5 mA, and a CAT IV 600V rating, this portable and high-voltage insulation tester can deliver rapid and stable resistance measurements no matter where it is taken. Users can store measurements for later review or PC transfer by using the provided software.
The 283 FC/PV Solar Digital Multimeter and a283 FC Wireless Current Clamp Set allows technicians to work in DC environments up to 1500V. Whether working with a utility-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) array, wind power, an electric railway, or a data center, the 283 FC has been engineered to enhance safety and increase productivity while giving accurate, reliable, and repeatable results. The 283 FC/PV includes CAT III 1500VDC safety-rated accessories so that users can work confidently in higher voltage environments without compromising on safety.
The solar MC4 test leads allow users to quickly make reliable and secure connections to modules or strings to test DC voltage up to 1500VDC. The TL175-HV Silicone Test Leads provide flexibility when testing voltage, millivoltage, resistance, continuity, or capacitance on inverters, combiner boxes, PV arrays, or individual PV modules. A bright backlit LCD screen and illuminated keypad make it easier to work in both direct and low-light conditions. The magnetic hanging kit frees up hands while the custom hard carrying case protects the instrument during transport.
