1. What is DC Power Optimizer

DC power optimizer is a kind of electronic equipment, not only can adjust the current and voltage in the circuit, but also has the function of monitoring, to meet your special needs, in many industries will appear its figure.

2. DC power optimizer is usually used in what places

2.1 Photovoltaic field

The photovoltaic field is one of the areas where DC power optimizers are most often used. This type of solar power optimizer is usually used to optimize the energy collection of solar power systems, which has a certain impact on improving the performance of photovoltaic panels.

2.2 Electronic Testing

All kinds of electronic components need to be tested for performance before they leave the factory to ensure that you have a good experience with the process. Thanks to the DC power supply optimizer makes the voltage and current of the test power supply can achieve high-precision output, so that you can verify the performance and stability of electronic components in different environments, in the automotive, communications, electronic components manufacturing and other fields have a DC power supply optimizer’s figure.

2.3 DC drive device

Power optimizers can be used as output filters for adjustable-speed DC drives and as output or input filters for AC PWM inverter drives.

3. What benefits can the installation of a DC Power Optimizer bring to your equipment?

DC power optimizers have different advantages for different applications. Take the photovoltaic industry as an example, the use of DC power optimizers can bring the following advantages

3.1 Real-time tracking of the maximum power point of each PV panel

The PV Power Optimizer comes with a unique software algorithm that allows the PV Power Optimizer to track the maximum power point of each PV panel in real time as the panels work. For example, if your PV panels in the work, PV panels have fallen leaves on the surface of the blocking, it is obvious that the amount of sunlight received by the area blocked by the fallen leaves is reduced, which leads to a reduction in the maximum power of the PV panels, then the PV Power Optimizer comes with software algorithms will feedback this anomaly to you, so that you can adjust in a timely manner, so that each panel to maintain the maximum power operation.

3.2 Improve the overall power generation of the solar system

PV power optimizer can realize the conversion of low current and high current, which can reduce the power loss and improve the overall power generation in the face of some special circumstances. For example, if the solar panel surface has a shadow blocking, then the photovoltaic optimizer can internal small transformer DC-DC control circuit in the output current, so that the solar energy system components and the output current in the circuit to match, in time to solve the blocked battery panels to reduce the output power problem, and thus achieve the purpose of reducing the loss of power, so that the solar energy system to improve the overall power generation. Power generation is increased.

3.3 Enhance the safety of solar energy system

As the photovoltaic power optimizer can regulate the circuit and voltage in the circuit, that is, in some cases can effectively increase the safety of the solar system. For example, when the inverter is turned off, if the current and voltage in the circuit are still at a high value, then it is easy to have a short circuit phenomenon, causing electrical accidents and losses to your life and property safety, the PV Power Optimizer can play a role in this time, which can reduce the current and voltage in the circuit to a safe range, greatly reducing the probability of accidents occurring in this situation.

4. How do you install a DC Power Optimizer on your equipment?

The installation of a DC Power Optimizer is very simple. Take the photovoltaic power optimizer as an example, you only need to fix the photovoltaic power optimizer on the back plate of the solar panel first, and then disconnect the output power of the solar panel, which can guarantee your safety during the installation process, and then connect the output wires to the input side of the photovoltaic power optimizer, connect the output side of the photovoltaic power optimizer to the appropriate solar inverter, and then turn on the output power of the solar panel. After that, turn on the output power of the solar panel, and the power optimizer can work normally.

Summary

DC power optimizer can serve you and bring a series of convenience to your life, so the understanding of DC power optimizer is a must, I believe that after you understand the DC power optimizer, you can choose the right DC power optimizer to make your equipment safe and efficient operation.
