This global catalogue introduces a certain number of new products to the Power-One Aurora range.
So far we have installed products totaling more than 4 GW of power globally.
We have redesigned the smallest of our residential inverters, the new UNO 2 kW single phase inverter. A new look
inverter from both a style and technology standpoint, it is high performing, extremely robust, easily installed and
features a new user interface.
Other important news includes two new string inverter products for large roof top applications, TRIO-27.6 and
TRIO-20.0, three-phase inverters outputting 27.6 kW and 20.0 kW respectively. These products fill a gap between
our previous 10.0 kW and 12.5 kW three-phase products and our smallest Central inverter products (50kW and
55kW).
This new design of inverter benefits from three-phase inverter technology perfected in the PVI-10.0 and 12.5,
probably the worlds most commonly used three-phase inverter which has led the way in best-in-class efficiency.
Power-One is also launching the new ULTRA, our biggest inverter with an output of up to 1.4MW featuring passive
liquid cooling. This new concept in large scale utility inverter features an IP65 enclosure, high performances,
minimum footprint, low maintenance and Power-Ones traditional modular approach. All this plus a low operational
cost benefit for our customers.
New Products & Product Benefits
Key Features of the Aurora product range

Power-Ones Aurora products compare favorably with the competition for the high innovation content and key
features which are the stronghold of our offering.
The wide working input voltage range can accommodate any panel string size, allowing installers to buy their inverter
with confidence knowing the Aurora inverter will suit whatever installation they have on their books. The wide input
range also allows a low power of activation to extend the daily working time of the inverter.
The Aurora inverters also feature a rugged IP65 construction to fit any type of installation without putting restrictions
on where and how the inverter should be installed.
Maximum power-point trackers (MPPT) allow you to accommodate sub arrays with different orientations or made
up of different PV panels. This technology also allows the installation designer to know that any incidents of partial
shading will be overcome by the MPPT technology creating the optimum power curve for energy harvesting.
Modular central inverters, used for large commercial and utility scale applications, allow a reduction in downtime
caused either by the failure at the inverter level or the photovoltaic field. This eliminates plant shutdown, the
reduction of repair time and consequently financial benefits in terms of production.
At Power-One, we aim high so you can too.

The new Aurora 300 Watt micro-inverter product offers something new to Power-One
customers. The ability to individually link all modules within a specific installation is an
alternative to the traditional Aurora string inverters Power-One is famous for.
Micro-inverters have some advantages over string inverters. They allow you to control the
panels output individually and offer Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) for each single
module.
They also allow you to control individual panels in different ways and reduce the losses in
efficiency in a variety of challenging conditions.
Features
Electrolyte-free power converter to further increase the life expectancy and long term reliability
Outdoor enclosure for unrestricted use under any environmental conditions
Increased energy harvesting thanks to the MPPT algorithm which works at the level of each solar
panel in any light condition
No DC input current ripple

The HF isolation allows it to fit any application that requires the grounding of either one of the
input terminations
95.5% of efficiency
Ease of installation by the implementation of a package inclusive of proprietary wireless
communication hub and grid interface
Reduced susceptibility to fault. In case of a component failure only the energy produced from
one PV module will be lost
Up to 10 micro inverters directly connectable in a string

OPTIMIZER
Power-Ones new Optimizer products use DC-to-DC technology to help maximize the energy
harvested from solar installations.
Normally, within each array, the solar panels are usually joined together in a serial pattern.
This creates issues if one panel fails as this reduces the energy being produced by the entire
installation. The Optimizer maximizes the energy from each module within a string as they
optimize the voltage/current for any given weather conditions.
The Optimizer also maximizes energy harvesting in panels suffering from partial or
temporary shading. This helps installers to create the largest installations possible and
increase Return on Investment (ROI).

The most common residential inverter is the ideal size for an average-sized family home.
This family of single-phase string inverter complements the typical number of rooftop
solar panels, allowing home-owners to get the most efficient energy harvesting for the size of
the property. This rugged outdoor inverter has been designed as a completely sealed unit to
withstand the harshest environmental conditions.
One of the key benefits of the Uno family of single-phase inverters is the dual input section to
process two strings with independent MPPT especially useful for rooftop installations with two
different orientations (ie East and West). The high speed MPPT offers real-time power tracking
and improved energy harvesting.
The transformerless operation gives the highest efficiency of up to 97.0%. The wide input
voltage range makes the inverter suitable to low power installations with reduced string size.
Features

The latest in Power-Ones Aurora Trio range, this new-look three-phase inverter fills a
specific niche in the commercial solar market. This new three-phase inverter benefits from the
three-phase inverter technology perfected in the PVI-10.0 and 12.5, probably the worlds most
commonly used three-phase inverter which has led the way in best-in-class efficiency.
Controlling more PV panels than its smaller predecessor, the Trio-27.6 and Trio-20.0 will
offer more flexibility and control to installers who have large installations with varying aspects
or orientations. This device has two independent MPPTs and efficiency ratings of up to 98.2%.
The very wide input voltage range makes the inverter suitable to installations with reduced
string size.
The new look inverter has new features including a special built-in heat sink compartment
and front panel display system. The unit is free of electrolytic capacitors, leading to a longer
product lifetime.
Features
Quiet Rail
Wide input range
Detachable wiring box to allow an easy installation
Integrated string combiner with different options of configuration which include DC and AC
disconnect switch in compliance with international Standards (-S2 and -S2X version)
High speed and precise MPPT algorithm for real time power tracking and improved energy harvesting

These extremely scalable modular inverter systems, based on 55kW modular blocks,
increase usable power and improve availability. The reduction of performance in any
individual module will not impact the energy-harvesting capabilities of other modules.
The product is available with and without transformer. Industry-leading power
conversion efficiencies of up to 98% (-TL), combined with high-speed Maximum Power
Point Tracking (MPPT) channels, optimize energy harvesting across a wide array of operating
conditions.
Inverter systems are delivered pre-configured and pre-tested, significantly reducing on-site
wiring and testing. In case of ungrounded application the unit can be configured as single or
multiple MPPT (with exception of PVI-55.0/-TL).
Features
Reduced susceptibility to a single fault. In case of a component failure, a maximum of 55kW
will be lost
Reduced acoustic noise due to the high switching frequency
Maximum input voltage up to 1000Vdc, high design flexibility and reduced DC
distribution losses for large scale PV plants
Integrated DC and AC distribution and protection. Fully equipped for connection,
additional accessories not required

These Aurora commercial-grade inverters are designed for large solar applications such
as apartment buildings and industrial facilities. These extremely scalable modular inverter
systems, based on 50kW conversion modules, increase usable power and improve availability.
The reduction of performance in any individual inverter will not impact the energyharvesting capabilities of other modules.
Industry-leading power conversion efficiencies of up to 95.8%, combined with high-speed
Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) channels, optimize energy harvesting across a
wide array of operating conditions. Inverter systems are delivered pre-configured and
pre-tested, significantly reducing on-site wiring and testing.
Features

Safeguard your investment and maximize your return:

The next generation PV plant monitoring and
management solution
The solar PV industry continues to operate in a volatile and challenging business climate. Existing on razor
thin margins, PV plants must achieve 98% up-time and produce more than 95% of their expected output to
remain profitable. The unfortunate reality is that most PV plant owners struggle to improve plant performance
and maximize power generation. Complicating the situation is the steady increase in operational cost and
complexity of managing PV plants that are distributed over large geographic areas.
Even a slight degradation in PV plant performance is magnified under this constrained operating environment
and adversely impacts profitability. Small defects such as string faults, panel soiling, and inaccurate problem
diagnosis can consume the entire downtime budget of a plant. Catastrophic failures, such as damaged
inverters, can cause the PV plant to go oine for days or weeks. No PV plant owner can afford this type of
exposure.
Improved PV plant performance demands precision control: Monitor your PV plants

with Aurora Vision plant management solutions
How well is your plant performing? Your PV plants profitability depends on many factors. But one thing is
critical: performance. If your PV systems arent performing at peak levels, the profitability will be impacted.
Performing at peak levels requires comprehensive, immediate visibility into PV plant health across your entire
fleet, which may include systems of different sizes serving different applications -- residential, commercial or
utility environments -- and that utilize balance of system components from different manufacturers. Peak
performance requires a management solution that monitors and measures every aspect of your solar energy
facility: strings, combiners, inverters, environment and even people.

Commercial PV plant operators are faced with higher sense of

urgency with respect to efficient and quick resolution of
performance degradation, since the cost of degradation
(i.e. downtime) tends to be an order of magnitude higher
than with residential systems.
Typical PV plant monitoring strategies that rely on integration of
disparate hardware, software and processes for each specific
commercial PV plant are too brittle to accommodate the wide
range of commercial PV applications. Highly fl exible solutions,
on the other hand, tend to be expensive or require specialized IT
expertise.

PLANT MANAGEMENT PLATFORM
GENERAL
SPECIFICATIONS
Providing proper management visibility into key energy performance indicators is imperative to running and
maintaining a fleet of effective renewable energy plants that consistently meet the demands of the business.
Unfortunately, these indicators and metrics are often scattered across various systems making it difficult to gain
management-level visibility into overall plant performance.
Aurora Vision provides highly interactive, real-time access to key performance and operations metrics to help
plant management optimize decisions and accelerate the alignment with business goals.
In addition to features included in Aurora Vision Edition, the Aurora Vision Prime Edition offers plant managers
with enhanced features for professional fleet management.
Features
Event Profile Management Run Your Plant Operations by Business Rules
Aurora Vision Prime features Event Profile Management (EPM), a system for managing your fleet of power plants using
common business rules. With EPM, plant operators create rules for detecting defects or environmental performance
indicators, apply these rules to individual plants or groups of plants, and select from a list of potential recipients to receive
notifications of a particular type or severity. Event descriptions are normalized across different inverter types, ensuring that
users can operate at peak performance regardless of equipment type.
Event Explorer Analyze Events, Defects, Assets, and Suppliers
The Event Explorer application lets you examine the top generators of event (alert) information, enabling cross-referencing
by plant, equipment type, manufacturer, location, event type, and many other parameters. This unique capability enables
in-depth evaluation of your plants, including providing the ability to benchmark equipment, suppliers, and sub-contractors.
Custom and Standard Reporting Generate Production and Billing Reports
Generate standard or custom reports for single plants, sets of plants, or the entire fleet. Export to Excel-compatible CSV or
Adobe PDF document formats.
Advanced Analytics Detect and Correlate Complex Indicators to Plant Performance
The advanced analytics features included with Aurora Vision Prime enables plant managers to compare fine details of plant
performance over the entire fleet, explore the behavior of plant sites relative to each other over time, and estimate income
gains/losses based on expected vs. actual energy generation.

AURORA VISION
Aurora Network models include:


3 port RS 485 Modbus star repeater
GSM class 12 GPRS cell router
4 port RJ-45 10/100 Base-T & 2 port 10/100 BaseFX fiber Ethernet switch
VISION
The Aurora Network provides accessories and network building blocks required to design a monitoring
system for geographically distributed PV plants spread over large distances. Options including Ethernet
switches, cell router, and RS-485 repeaters extend the size or geographical range of the monitoring
network beyond the capability of Aurora Universal Commercial or Aurora Universal Industrial. These
options also allow more flexibility in the designing the monitoring network to the wide variety of
commercial PV plant designs.
Features
A 24 VDC 4A power supply provides power to balance of system components such as weather stations,
combiner boxes or other network equipment. The power supply can take either a 120 VAC or a 230
VAC 480 VAC input.
An optional GSM GPRS cell router acts as an internet gateway for applications where a wired internet
connection is not feasible. It comes with firewall and security features along with network protocols
UDP/TCP and DHCP to create a secure wireless WAN network.
Unmanaged Ethernet switch options allow easy integration of the monitoring network to data loggers
and internet gateways. Both copper and fiber options customize the Ethernet network for different
network topologies and geographical distance needs.
A NEMA 4 or 4 X enclosures allows placement of several network components in the same enclosure in
the most convenient outdoor locations in your PV plant.

efficiencies, installer-friendly designs and long service life. A major selling point of the
Aurora Wind inverter is its very wide input voltage range ensuring power is continuously
harvested from the lightest breeze to the strongest wind.
The competitive initial acquisition costs matched with the high efficiencies of up to 96.9%
significantly increase return on investment on wind-power installations.
This compact, weather-sealed inverter has a programmable 16-point profile which allows
a tight match for any compatible permanent magnet turbine.
