The aim of VONSCH developers was to produce highly reliable, true sine wave inverter with high efficiency and long durability.

FOTO CONTROL 1f 230/375 DC is an inverter for small systems designed to cover own household consumption.

FOTO CONTROL 1f 230/375 DC is a device for transformation of DC voltage generated on the terminals of the solar panel after impact of photons to single-phase sine wave voltage in single-phase AC power grid.

Inverter is designed to produce single-phase voltage with an amplitude of 230 V AC and frequency of 50 Hz in on-grid operation.

FOTO CONTROL 1f 230/375 DC is able to work in a wide range of input voltage - voltage of photovoltaic cells within the range from 200 V DC to 700 V DC.

The advantages of FOTO CONTROL 1f 230/375 DC are low noise, high efficiency, the possibility of extending to three-phase system (operation of multiple inverters) and the possibility of integrating new perspective features.

Accessories

RM GRID MONITOR

RM GRID MONITOR is a device for FOTO CONTROL 1f inverters used for voltage and current measuring at the point of coupling to the electrical grid.

• Individual device mountable on DIN rail
• External power supply 24V DC

• Monitoring the energy flow
• Measurement of phase voltage and current
• Switching of two external appliances
• Extending the inverter features to allow limitation of the grid injection

The RM GRID MONITOR module is physically installed in the household switchboard. When connecting the inverter with the RM GRID MONITOR extension module, power and current at the inlet to the building are measured. Depending on this, it can be very easy and effective to regulate the power of the hybrid inverter. The inverter is also connected to the power supply (48V battery, wind turbine, etc.). According to the current state of energy flow, inverter is set to maximize solar energy share and it can be set to ensure zero grid injection (depends on local legislative).

Continuos pure-sine power regulator SRVS 10/230AC

For using the excess energy from ypur PV system, we have developed a continuous power regulator SRVS 10/230, which can be used to distribute unused power - the excess of the panels, and use it to supply the heating units like a boiler coil or an electric radiator.
The main advantage of our power regulator is the sine shape of the output voltage, which reduces any undesired disturbance of the grid or surrounding devices. Continuous power regulator allows optimal use of your photovoltaic system.
