PURE SINE WAVE

MODIFIED SINE WAVE (ACTUALLY A SQUARE WAVE FORM)


Actual oscilloscope tracing from a pure sine wave inverter with less 5% total harmonic distortion. Notice the smooth rounded transitions from positive to negative, just like your utility company. To your equipment and appliances this is like a glass of some smooth easy to swallow energizing drink. 

 


Actual oscilloscope tracing from a typical modified sine wave inverter with 35 to 40% total harmonic distortion. Notice the sharp sudden transitions from positive to negative. This is what causes the high harmonic distortion level. Definitely not like your utility company. To your equipment and appliances this like swallowing a glass of nails. Not too healthy. In fact this type of waveform can actually shorten the life of many appliances.

 

All AC appliances and equipment are designed to run off of pure sine waves. Pure sine wave energy is the type of power that is produced by your utility company.

Benefits of running your equipment and appliances on pure sine waves:

Nothing Beats Mitsubishi Electric's High Performance And Reliability !


When you're living off grid and your power fails, you can't simply pick up the phone and call the utility company and ask them to fix your power. That's why performance and reliability are paramount when you're making your own power.

That's why it is important that you choose a solar panel manufacturer that is well established in the industry and has the financial strength to be there if the need arises. This is exactly why we chose Mitsubishi Electric for our high performance off grid solar systems.

Anyone can build a solar panel that works here on Earth, now strap that same solar panel to a rocket that subjects it to 8 Gs of bone jarring thrust and then expose it to high energy cosmic rays as well as temperatures that can soar as high as 300oC and now you have engineered a solar panel.

 That's exactly the type of expertise that has been perfected by Mitsubishi Electric engineers that began when they established their space satellite business more than 40 years ago.

Building on that experience and utilizing the latest state of the art patented process for manufacturing multi-crystalline silicon, Mitsubishi Electric has achieved real world efficiencies, tolerance levels and reliability that was once thought to be impossible. And unlike other manufacturers they did it without using toxic lead solder in their panels. Since 1974 Mitsubishi Electric is one of the oldest and most trusted names in the industry.

Because Mitsubishi Electric cares about the environment they use absolutely no toxic lead solder in the manufacture of their solar panels. Instead they use silver electrodes which not only protects our precious environment but also enhances efficiency which is why Mitsubishi solar panels outperforms many of their competitors and gives you a bigger rebate at a better price per watt. A typical conventional 3 kW solar array uses up to  864,000 milligrams of lead. A Mitsubishi 3 kW array uses Zero lead solder.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PTC refers to PVUSA Test Conditions, which were developed to test and compare PV systems as part of the PVUSA (Photovoltaics for Utility Scale Applications) project. PTC are 1,000 Watts per square meter solar irradiance, 20 degrees C air temperature, and wind speed of 1 meter per second at 10 meters above ground level. PV manufacturers use Standard Test Conditions, or STC, to rate their PV products. STC are 1,000 Watts per square meter solar irradiance, 25 degrees C cell temperature, air mass equal to 1.5, and ASTM G173-03 standard spectrum. The PTC rating, which is lower than the STC rating, is generally recognized as a more realistic measure of PV output because the test conditions better reflect "real-world" solar and climatic conditions, compared to the STC rating. All ratings in the list are DC (direct current) watts.
