Kaco blueplanet BP-1501xi Grid-Tie Inverter
11/05/09 Being discontinued in favor of the 02xi series inverters.
With the Kaco Solar blue planet xi-series, the KACO engineering team has created an inverter family that is unparalleled in its class and once again, has set new energy output and efficiency standards. Their new inverter design is not only the most efficient in it’s class; it also offers patented MPP technology and produces optimum total output from your installation.
Longevity and reliability have been the outstanding characteristics and key objectives of all KACO Solar developments. During the middle of the last century, KACO’s mechanical AC-“choppers” created the basis for today’s reliable inverters. Reliability has remained a key characteristic of all blue planet inverters. They still focus on the exclusive use of convection cooling for our inverters. It’s a simple fact that inverters have a longer lifetime without moving parts like fans.
