OBO Bettermann of North America
OBO Bettermann offers a complete line of cable management products designed with
solar installations in mind. Their cable tray systems help route cables along solar arrays

and, with the unique line of self-connecting trays, installation has never been faster or
easier. OBO Bettermann’s surge protection products have been specially engineered for
LINAK
the solar industry to help protect valuable converters and other system components. LINAK provides solar tracking actuators. The

LA37 electric actuator was designed speciically
for solar applications in harsh, outdoor environ-
ments. It has been proven through extensive,

lifetime environmental and climatic tests. LA37
actuator features a static holding force of up
to 45 kN, as well as embedded electronics and

feedback such as Hall pulses and Modbus RTU.

Littelfuse
Littelfuse’s new SPXI in-line string fuse

provides a full range protection for solar
installations, through integration with the

solar cable, and without the need for fuse
holders or a position within a combiner
box. Proven technology of Littelfuse string
Wiley ACC Cable Clips
are a high-quality wire protection can now be attained by crimp-
management solution
ing onto a cable installation and over-

molding—or providing other protection
from the elements. Available at 1500 VDC
Clipping Right Along
and 1000 VDC, Littelfuse in-line string
fuses are offered in multiple ratings up

to 30 amps. The SPXI (1500VDC) and SPFI
(1000VDC) are approved to UL2569.

Wiley Cable Clips simplify wire management and create a cleaner look
to solar PV arrays. Able to last a lifetime, the corrosion resistant 304 stainless steel clips
are a durable solution for all environments. Coined edges prevent damage to cable insulation.

The design is easy to install and no tools are required. Clips can be used in a wide variety of
mounting conigurations (including 90-degree) for module and rail applications.

Custom designs are available upon request.
Nor-Cal Products Inc.

Most PV solar cells are made using thin-ilm deposition
techniques, similar to compound semiconductor pro-
cessing or industrial coating. Nor-Cal is a key supplier

of vacuum chambers, pressure control, isolation valves,
ittings, and langes to many existing solar cell manufac-
turers. They also offer products to start-up companies

and those doing research and development (R&D) on
next-generation, thin-ilm techniques for non-semicon-
ductor substrates, such as steel. The goal is to bring the

cost of solar energy within reach of existing electrical
utilities and to reduce dependence on fossil fuels.
