Large colour display
The colour display depicts all relevant data of the PV plant in clearly structured charts. A single VM touch can read out up to 60 inverters of the Voltwerk VS or VC series and up to 60 junction boxes SmartConnect, a total of 80 components can be monitored.
Flexible plant monitoring
Output deficits or other faults will be reported immediately locally via display, LEDs and the relais output for alarm. Optionally, this alarm can be sent through the internet portal Voltweb via sms, fax or e-mail. All alarm parameters can easily be set in the display. Due to the integrated web server the system can be remotely operated as well. The Voltwerk VM touch shows all performance and yield data in the display as well as in the internet portal Voltweb or via Volatapp on an iPhone or iPad. A temperature and irradiation sensor can be added.
Report of own-consumption
The clear depiction of both the consumption of the household (EEG 2009) and the yield of the PV plant allows the customer to optimise the power consumption and therefore to maximize the benefits of the feed-in tariff (EEG 2009). All data of the plant can be exported to a USB stick for archiving or a more detailed analysis on a personal computer.
