1. DDP Function
The DDP information collector is a device for Delta Solar Energy Monitor
System to communicate with Delta PV micro inverter. This device monitors Delta
PV micro inverters that are connected to the photovoltaic modules. The DDP
collects energy and performance data from the PV micro inverter over in-home AC
power lines and forwards that data to the Delta Solar EMS via the Internet for
statistical reporting.
The Delta PV Micro Inverter system is a device that converts the solar panel DC
output into grid-compliant AC power. This fully integrated device can maximize
the modules' energy production by utilizing a sophisticated Maximum Power Point
Tracking (MPPT) algorithm. This integrated system maximizes energy harvest and
provides individual AC output without hazardous voltage. And in case of any
failure of any individual solar panel or inverter, this will not impact other modules
and inverter operations. Unlike traditional center inverter structures, this PV
micro inverter system provides true redundancy and eliminates hazardous
voltage levels.
The Delta Solar EMS collects and analyzes the per-module data from each PV
micro inverter.
This system automatically detects any shortfall in energy production. It is easy for
a repair technician to locate the failed solar module and perform the necessary
replacement. It monitors and stores data on a constant basis. User can access
the data for commercial or personal use.
The DDP is designed for easy installation and is easy to operate. User does not
need any specialized equipment. It simply plugs to the grid tied wall AC outlet and
routers for communications with the Delta Solar EMS. The DDP communicates
with the individual PV micro inverters over the existing power lines in the
residence or business.
After installation and device scanning, it assembles an internal database of all
known Delta PV micro inverters at the site it manages. As a constant monitor, the
DDP utilizes the customer’s site broadband router to forward information to the
Delta Solar EMS. The DDP also reports any error conditions that affect the DDP or
the PV micro inverters. You can view both energy data and error conditions in the
Delta Solar EMS.
