All-in-one testing solution to check the performance and safety of PV systems and speed up reporting to customers with the FLUKE SMFT-1000 Multifunctional PV Tester and Performance Analyzer.
Test whether PV systems perform optimally and operate safely with the multifunctional Fluke SMFT-1000 Multifunctional PV tester with I-V curve tracing. Designed for PV professionals providing installation, commissioning and maintenance services on systems operating at 1000 V DC or less, the SMFT-1000 provides a complete PV system testing solution that complies with IEC 62446-1 standards. Fluke's TruTest™ software allows measurement data from solar installation and commissioning tests to be easily imported, organised and analysed for effortless reporting without the need to carry a laptop.
Critical test characteristics for periodic inspection of PV systems
Full sequence safety check - IEC 62446-1 Category 1:
- Protective earth resistance (Rpe)
- Voltage at open circuit (Voc)
- Short-circuit current (Isc)
- Insulation resistance (Rins)
- Polarity
- ROI and system performance testing - IEC 62446-1 Category 2:
I-V curve tracing and software analysis with TruTest
Irradiation, temperature, slope, viewing direction
Wireless Irradiance Meter: no cables required
Accurate I-V curve measurements require real-time irradiation and temperature data. The IRR2-BT irradiance meter supplied wirelessly connects to the SMFT-1000 to transmit data in real time, enabling the most accurate I-V curve measurements. If the wireless connection is lost for any reason, the IRR2-BT continues to record data for up to 17 hours, which can later be compared with tests performed with the SMFT-1000.
Constantly changing the configuration of test leads while performing different tests is a hassle. With Fluke's “Keep the Leads” system, less time is lost in setup and fewer user errors occur when testing PV systems. Now you can perform more tests in the field in less time.
