MICROINVERTERS
MOUNTING & RACKING SYSTEMS
APS America
APS America introduces the irst true three-phase, grid-tied solar microinverter—the
YC1000-3. Programmable from 208 V up to 480 V, the YC1000 works with three or
four PV modules (up to 310 W STC each), while allowing individual module monitoring
through APS’ advanced communications software. Priced competitively with conven-
tional string inverters, and offering the design and performance advantages of microin-
verters, these units herald a new era for residential and commercial solar technology.
