SolarBOS has added Gateway Boxes to its solar balance-of-system (BOS) product line-up. The new Gateway Boxes are designed to save installers time and money by providing a pre-assembled solution that is listed to UL-508A, the company says.
The Gateway Boxes are pre-wired and ready to receive inputs from Modbus-enabled devices in the PV system. They can be configured simply as a Modbus to Ethernet gateway, or they can also include a revenue-grade power meter and/or an eight-channel I/O module for other instrumentation, such as a weather station or temperature sensors.
