PV Array Combiner Box

System Components

The PSPV is a solar array combiner which can be used with a wide variety of system conﬁgurations and solar module types. The PSPV is designed to provide NEC code compliant series over current protection of the wiring of multiple PV modules or subarrays for connection to charge controllers, inverters or other systems components. The rainproof aluminum enclosure is easily ﬁeld conﬁgured to match your PV system design and amperage requirements.

•Rainproof, outdoor Type 3R powder coated aluminum enclosure

•Approved for installation on both vertical and angled surfaces with a slope as little as 3-in-12 pitch - also can be pole mounted (Brackets not included)

•Designed for use with up to twelve OutBack’s OBPV breakers for PV array conﬁgurations of 12 to 72 VDC systems - maximum open circuit voltage of 150 VDC

•Also can use the OutBack OBFH “touch safe” type fuse holders for high voltage systems - maximum open circuit voltage of 600 VDC

•Includes dual combining bus bars which can be installed to provide one or two separate PV output circuits from a single PSPV enclosure

•Includes one terminal bus bar (TBB) and has mounting holes for an additional TBB

•Includes two #1/0 AWG set-screw compression type box lug terminals for output wiring

•Includes one #1/0 AWG ground lug which can be mounted either on the inside or outside surface of the enclosure

•Two 1 inch side knockouts which can be punched out to allow for larger 1.25"

(3 cm) conduit

•Eight .5" (13 mm) knockouts on bottom for PV module or subarray input wiring

•Clearance is provided on bottom and back main knockouts to allow up to a 2" (5 cm) conduit punch for larger cabling

•For negative or positive ground PV systems

•Enclosure ships without breakers or fuse holders (Order separately)
