8 6 TrakStar Overview MORNINGSTAR S TRAKSTAR MPPT TECHNOLOGY The Best-in-Class MPPT Technology Morningstar s innovative TrakStar Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) Technology is an advanced control algorithm that maximizes the energy harvest from the solar array into the battery under all operating conditions. This technology innovation is used in Morningstar s SunSaver MPPT and TriStar MPPT controllers and has resulted in both becoming the world-leading MPPT solar controllers. Morningstar s TrakStar MPPT Technology With Morningstar s TrakStar Technology, fast changing maximum power points are quickly tracked during shading conditions or when using mixed module arrays. When power levels change significantly, Morningstar s MPPT controllers are able to quickly respond to find the true maximum power point and avoid getting stuck on a local maximum. Our TrakStar Technology: Optimizes solar array operation by differentiating global (total) maximum power operating points from local ones during shading or mixing of solar modules Provides excellent performance at sunrise and low insolation levels Delivers the industry s highest peak power efficiency rating: 97.5% - TriStar MPPT 600V Controller 99% - TriStar MPPT Controller 97.5% - SunSaver MPPT Controller Performs very rapid sweeping of the solar array I-V curve over the whole converter s operating range at flexible and adaptive time intervals Sweeps from the battery voltage to the open circuit voltage of the array in less than a second for the TriStar MPPT and SunSaver MPPT controllers and in less than one tenth of a second for our new TriStar MPPT 600V controllers TrakStar Advantages Morningstar s TrakStar MPPT tracking algorithm provides more accurate and faster performance, which consistently operates the PV array at a real maximum power point. Morningstar s MPPT controllers deliver high conversion efficiency at all power levels. Significantly better in conversion efficiency at lower output levels than similar competing products Substantially higher energy production at higher output levels than similar products Our MPPT controllers feature robust thermal and mechanical design (no fans or frequently moving parts). This, together with our passive convection cooling heatsinks, makes our controllers the industry s quietest and most reliable while still exhibiting the lowest self-consumption. Morningstar s MPPT controllers deliver better production at higher ambient temperatures and will not reduce power or turn off at higher temperatures. Furthermore, our MPPT controllers keep the batteries at the highest state-of-charge (SOC), resulting in better battery health and longer life. A higher SOC equates to better PV system autonomy and more time before a low voltage disconnect. To Learn more about Morningstar s TrakStar MPPT Technology, visit:

The GFPD is available in two models, GFPD-150V and GFPD-600V, to support 150V and 600V PV system breaker stacks, respectively. Morningstar s GFPD increases safety and design flexibility in off-grid and on-grid PV systems. Ground fault protection is used in electrical systems to prevent current from following any unintended paths during a ground fault. It is critical to detect any stray current and to interrupt (break) the circuit until safe operation can be restored. A current imbalance between the conductors of a circuit indicates a ground fault. Morningstar s GFPD will detect this condition and break the circuit on both the positive and negative legs. Disconnecting both poles ensures interruption of the ground fault current. Morningstar s GFPD Solution: Maintains the integrity of earth bond for battery and loads Trips at lower fault current with greater accuracy Breaks both conductors in the faulted circuit and completely isolates PV source circuits Does not require an extra warning label at the battery bank as per U.S. National Electric Code requirements Provides design flexibility to meet a wide range of configurations: Positive and negative ground Large and small arrays Makes it easier to locate and troubleshoot ground faults Powered via the PV system s battery bank Equipped with both visual and audible alarms Built to support both single controller and multiple controllers systems: Morningstar s GFPD will only shut off affected controllers, while maintaining the system earth bond. All loads will continue to operate safely with the battery remaining bonded to ground. Multiple controllers and GFPDs can be added on an as-needed basis Ground Fault Protection Device GFPD-150V GFPD-600V Input Voltage Vdc Vdc Self-Consumption <0.5W <0.5W Ground Fault Threshold Current 300 ma +/- 10% 300 ma +/- 10% Number of Poles 2 2 Maximum Solar Voltage 150V 600V Maximum Solar Current 60A 50A Trip Method Relay Relay Output Trip Signal 12V 12V Mounting Post Size DIN- and Panel-Mount Options DIN- and Panel-Mount Options Nominal System Voltage 12/24/36/48 Vdc 12/24/36/48 Vdc UL 1741 and CSA C22.2 No Listed GFPD-150V is UL-489 Listed GFPD-600V is UL-1077 Listed Meets EMC Directives (Immunity, Emissions and Safety) FCC Class B Part 15 Compliant U.S. National Electrical Code (NEC) Compliant for use as a GFPD device Manufactured in a Certified ISO 9001 Facility Accessories PRELIMINARY 17
