Data Sheet

Priwatt

Functions

Simple, systematic, self-consumption of solar power

Priwatt is an interface in the solar PV inverter which enables electrical appliances to be controlled automatically. You can configure the necessary settings in a few easy steps via the inverter display. And for example, after that you could be running your air-conditioning system using self-generated solar energy from your own rooftop.

How can I profit from self-consumption?

Above all, Priwatt can be used economically to generate heat, to activate appliances which are needed when solar irradiation is higher, or to charge batteries. Obvious examples of use are therefore:

Heating pumps
Hot water tanks
Pool filtering systems
Air-conditioning
Irrigation systems

Benefits

Use the environmentally-friendly solar energy generated on your own rooftop yourself
More independent energy supplies
Reduce electricity and heating costs
Simple configuration of settings via the inverter display
Standard, free of charge, pre-installation in all inverters up to 50 kVA
