SolarEdge Module Temperature Sensor 4-20mA Type 2

The SE1000-SEN-TMOD-S2 is a specialized sensor created to monitor the temperature of photovoltaic (PV) modules, delivering essential data for optimizing solar energy production. It functions by measuring the temperature on the back surface of PV modules, ensuring heat levels remain within the operational range for maximum efficiency. The sensor outputs a signal ranging from 4 to 20 mA, accurately reflecting temperatures between -40°C and +90°C. This module temperature sensor is a crucial part of a comprehensive monitoring system when linked to the SolarEdge Control and Communication Gateway. This gateway acts as a hub for various ambient sensors that gather data on sunlight intensity, temperature, and wind speed at the solar installation site. These measurements are vital for calculating the Performance Ratio (PR) of the installation, a key metric of the system's efficiency. Data collected by the sensor can be accessed through the SolarEdge Monitoring Portal, where it is displayed for analysis and performance tracking. The gateway supports the connection of multiple sensors, enabling expanded monitoring capabilities with the addition of more gateways. The product includes the European Article Number (EAN) 5905515611770.
