Seaward PV200 Solar PV Tester & I-V Curve Tracer
Connect the Seaward PV200 solar PV tester directly to individual PV modules and strings to test, analyse and record your findings faster than ever before.
All tests on the PV200 are in accordance with the requirements of IEC 61829 and IEC 62446. At the touch of a button, the PV200 can measure Voc, Ioc, insulation and ground bonding, with full test result recording on board with easy export to PC via USB connection.
Optimised for use in outdoor conditions with clearly visible screen even in direct sunlight, the PV200 is ready whenever and wherever you need it. It's also lightweight, handheld and responds fast, allowing you to configure and carry out all tests as quickly as possible.
Interface with the Free PVMobile App
The PV200 is more than just a standard measurement tool - this solar meter can wirelessly interface with Seaward's free PVMobile app (only available for Android) to wirelessly transfer measurement data and much, much more.
With Seaward PVMobile, you'll be able to:
- View I-V and power curves in full colour with exceptional levels of detail
- Pinch/zoom on a curve to precisely identify issues
- Select distinct points on a curve to read actual voltage and current levels
- Convert I-V curve measurements to STC
- Transfer PDF reports back to the office from a remote location
- View curves on-site, with no need to use specialist software or a computer
- Transfer instantly to the app by touching your mobile to the NFC chip in the PV200
