Fluke PVA-1500HE2 High Efficiency PV Analyzer
The Fluke® PVA-1500HE2 is an advanced, high-efficiency PV analyzer and I-V curve tracer engineered for rigorous solar commissioning, troubleshooting, and operations & maintenance (O&M) applications. Designed to safely and accurately measure photovoltaic systems, the PVA-1500HE2 evaluates performance and captures I-V curves up to 1500V and 30A DC. This powerful diagnostic instrument minimizes downtime by providing automated data management, in-depth analysis, and reporting directly in the field.
Optimized for large utility-scale sites, this analyzer features a class-leading sweep-to-sweep delay of just 9 seconds. This rapid processing speed enables technicians to measure up to 3.5 MW in under one hour, dramatically improving testing efficiency. Additional features include over-temperature protection, quick setup, and robust wireless interfaces for seamless equipment communication.
