An upgraded version of Seaward’s PV150 Solar Installation Tester, the Seaward PV150+ Solar Installation Tester is a PV tester for verifying modern photovoltaic installations' electrical safety and performance.
What’s New?
Better suited to testing PV modules featuring recent technology advances and associated higher efficiencies than Seaward’s previous PV150 model, the Seaward PV150+ Solar Installation Tester offers:
- Improved capacitive-induced in-rush protection by a factor of 300%
- Supports safe testing of energised PV arrays
- Combines the PV commissioning tests required by IEC 62446
Designed to ensure easy operation, the Seaward PV150+ Solar Installation Tester also features single-key testing, onboard data storage, and USB connectivity for data export.
Additional Tests
The Seaward PV150+ Solar Installation Tester inherits numerous testing capabilities from its predecessor, including:
- Ground/earth continuity with test lead null for long test leads
- PV string open circuit measurement up to 1000V DC with polarity indication
- PV string short circuit current measurement up to 15A DC
- PV array insulation tests at 250V, 500V, and 1000V
Furthermore, like the PV150, the Seaward PV150+ Solar Installation Tester can test individual PV models as well as strings of PV modules.
Combining eclectic testing capabilities with simple data storage and export as well as easy operation, the Seaward PV150+ Solar Installation Tester is perfect for checking the performance and safety of photovoltaic (PV) installations.
