APsystems Single-Core Transmitter-PLC for PV Rapid Shutdown (W/Power Supply)

The APsystems 408006 Single-Core Transmitter-PLC is a rapid shutdown (RSD) initiator for utility-scale and commercial PV systems, delivered with its power supply. It handles up to 1500 VDC and 160 A of PV input through a single core, supporting up to 30 modules per string and as many as 15 strings per core. Using PLC communication with SunSpec signaling, it meets NEC 2017, 2020 and 2023 (690.12) for code-compliant module-level shutdown.

Key Features:

• Single-core PLC rapid shutdown transmitter
• Max PV input 1500 VDC / 160 A
• Input voltage 12 VDC, input current 0.8 A
• Power supply 85-264 VAC to 12 VDC
• Up to 30 PV modules per string
• Up to 15 strings per core (Φ5.9-6.35 mm)
• Cable options Φ5.9, 6.35, 7 and 8.6 mm
• SunSpec signaling, IP65, -40°F to 140°F
