S-5! has released the Module Level Power Electronics (MLPE) Mount, providing a universal, cost-effective method for attaching module-level power electronics (MLPE) directly to solar module frames.

Designed for use with most solar modules, the MLPE Mount secures optimisers and microinverters along the underside of the module frame at desired locations so wire management is simplified, providing versatility to better handle module-to-module wire management.

“We were looking for a simple and cost-effective way to quickly secure optimisers and microinverters to PV frames for rail-less solar installations. The MLPE Mount secures MLPE devices to module frames with ease without rotation then penetrates anodization layers and embeds into the frame for superior grip, electric bonding and grounding (earthing),” S-5!  research and development director Ricardo Barroso says.

“These features, together with its adjustable grip, make it a universal solution, which means only one product is needed for mounting optimisers and micro-inverters onto most PV module frames for either rail-less or rail-based systems.”

The MLPE Mount is designed for solar developers, EPCs, installers and end-users who desire an economical, flexible and easy-to-install MLPE mounting device for PV module frames, without relying on attaching to rails.
