Bracing & Anchoring
Gripple, Inc.
Gripple’s Photovoltaic (PV) Solutions for ground-mounted arrays provide a reliable, low-cost alternative to traditional methods. Their products provide protection to the array against active forces such as strong winds, natural earth movements, storms, earthquakes, and temperature expansion/ contraction, thus eliminating torsion, tension, and compression issues. The bracing and anchoring kits are lightweight, easy to install, and are versatile enough to be either specified into a site or retrofitted into most existing systems, making them suitable for repairs and refusals. www.gripple.com
Capacitors
Cornell Dubilier Electronics
Next generation inverter designs for renewable energy demand reliable DC link capacitors with higher capacitance values, voltage, and current ratings. 100% of Cornell Dubilier Electronics’ 947D DC Link capacitors are conditioned at accelerated temperature and voltage before they leave the factory. They’ve demonstrated this process eliminates infant mortal failures and produces highly thermally and electri- cally stable DC Link Capacitors. www.cde.com
Cathodic Protection
LP Hoying, LLC
LP Hoying solar power supplies are used in the cathodic protection industry and are used world- wide for the protection of assets including oil and natural gas well casings, pipelines, and associated infrastructure. They are available with cathodic protection current ranges from zero to 50A (more in specialized cases) and the associated voltage levels necessary to provide this current. The controls can be configured to provide constant voltage, constant current, or automatic potential control depending upon the application. Their systems come with all components needed for installation, and are easily assembled in the field.

Anderson Power Products
Solar SPEC Pak is a multi-pin IP68 approved connector meeting the photo- voltaic industry requirements specified
in UL 6703A and is rated for operating temperatures of -40°F to 194°F. It has power handling capabilities up to 600V and up to 60A per UL. Solar Spec pack features a locking latch that complies with NEC 2008 section 690.33 (C) requirements. Designed for wire to wire applications, Solar SPEC Pak is capable of handling up to 5 individual lines which reduces the number of traditional connectors needed in solar applications, minimizing the amount of space needed while lowering installation costs. www.andersonpower.com
CHT USA
Silicone encapsulants and sealants offer environmentally friendly, long-term protec- tion to meet the demands of a variety of solar panel applications, from panels to junction boxes. UV resistant encapsulat- ing grades outperform organics. CHT USA offers optically clear and non-yellowing systems, with corrosion-resistant proper- ties, as well as thermally conductive grades for heat management. UL rated, flame- retardant, potting grades are also available for junction box applications. Additionally, silicones with primerless adhesion are offered for bonding to a variety of plastics. www.silicone-experts.cht.com
