    Xantrex GT500E Grid Tie Inverter The Smart Choice for PV Systems
    Springerville solar array: Xantrex Grid Tie Inverters are installed in one of the worlds most productive grid-connected photovoltaic power systems in Springerville, Arizona. Tucson Electric Powers giant solar field consists of 34.980 solar panels that generate up to 4,6 MW of power.

    More than 250,000 customers around the world rely on Xantrex inverters and system components to bring them electricity every day. Our new GT500E Grid Tie Inverter is based on a reliable platform that is used in grid-connected photovoltaic and wind turbine applications in North America and Europe. In the last decade, our technology has generated more than 3000 megawatts of power conversion capacity.

    Expandable and Easy to Operate


    The GT500E is a 500 kilowatt three-phase power conversion system for gridconnected photovoltaic arrays. Designed to be easy to install and operate, it automates start-up, shutdown, and fault detection. With user-definable power tracking that matches the inverter to the array and adjustable delay periods, users are able to customize system start up and shut down sequences. Multiple inverters are easily paralleled for larger power installations. The design allows direct integration to a low voltage or medium voltage grid using one step voltage transformation to any required grid voltage. The integrated combiner box/master slave configuration is designed to connect to two inverters, which allows an optimized energy harvest during periods of low irradiance.

    Manufactured in Europe
    The GT500E is designed to meet all CE requirements. The GT500E is produced by a manufacturing partner in Germany.

    European References
    Xantrex is committed to the European solar market.Xantrex has installed and commissioned multiple grid tie inverters in Germany and Spain. Important clients like HaWi Energietechnik GmbH, Dachland GmbH, EnBW Regional AG, Phnix Sonnen Strom AG, Siliken S.L., Grupo Enerpal, Alternativas Energeticas Vaquero S.L. and Solon AG have trusted the reliability of Xantrex inverters.

    Built-in Protection Features


    The GT500E offers applicable protection features including over and under voltage and frequency safeguards. Its anti-islanding protection prevents the inverter from feeding power to the grid in the event of a utility outage. It has an inverter shut off and reset toggle switch.

    High Reliability
    GT500E high reliability means reduced system down time and higher energy production. To ensure the GT500E is a dependable, high quality product, Xantrex engineers tested it extensively during the design process on a component level, using an evaluation method called Highly Accelerated Life Testing (HALT). HALT combines powerful thermal and vibration technologies to stress a product beyond its specifications. This enables Xantrex engineers to find and fix product defects that may not be discovered by testing methods typically used by other inverter manufacturers. Xantrex s sophisticated HALT techniques go beyond conventional testing, which results in improved product reliability and quality.

    Xantrex GT500E Grid Tie Inverter: Extremely reliable High energy production due to direct conversion to medium voltage and master slave option Easy to install: flexible AC and DC connectivity Local service network Worldwide experience in large grid connected photovoltaic arrays Manufactured in Germany

    Service and Warranty


    The GT500E comes with a standard warranty that covers parts and labor . Our customer service network, based in Germany and Spain, will provide installation and commissioning support, product training, and a hotline and maintenance service across Europe. Xantrex offers extended warranty and performance guarantee packages.
