PlatformSolar inverter monitoring
Find the inverter that’s quietly losing energy.
A failing fan or a tripping inverter can cost energy for weeks before anyone notices. 42Hz compares every inverter with its neighbours, under the same sun.
What it catches.
What goes wrong
What you’d see
42Hz
Underperforming
Less output than its neighbours.A little at first.
Ranked by what waiting costs.Adjusted for irradiance and temperature.
Running hot
Heatsink temperature climbing.A fan failing or a filter clogged.
Flagged days before it derates.With the likely cause.
Repeat trips
The same fault code again.Often cleared before anyone looks.
One case with the history.Not a new alarm every time.
DC-side faults
An input or combiner down.Or insulation resistance dropping.
Narrowed to the right input.So the technician goes straight there.
What it reads.
It reads what your inverters already report.
- Inverters: power, temperatures and fault codes
- Combiner and string data, where you have it
- Met station: irradiance and module temperature
- Meters, trackers and SCADA
Common questions.
For monitoring, yes: every brand in one view, with one set of alerts. Keep SCADA for running the site.
Both, from any manufacturer and of any age.
It compares each inverter with its neighbours under the same sun, so the weather changes what’s expected, not whether you get an alert.
Yes. Each case keeps what the inverter was doing before the fault.
