OutBack FLEXware ICSPLUS-1 Rapid Shutdown and AFCI System, For Up To 6 Strings, Includes (1) FWPV6-FH600-SDA 6-String Combiner Box, (1) RSI, (1) BKR-CTRL-DC, (1) PNL-75-DC-RT, UL 1741-SA
The OutBack FLEXware ICSPLUS-1 provides a fully-compliant and comprehensive PV rapid shutdown and arc fault protection combiner solution by meeting the following 2014 National Electric Code requirements for PV systems:
- NEC 690.11 — Arc fault protection (protects against arc faults due to loose connections, damaged wires or other DC component failures)
- NEC 690.12 — Rapid shutdown (allows first responders to safely de-energize controlled conductors)
- NEC 690.15 — DC combiner disconnect (opens all ungrounded circuit conductors from all energy sources)
The FLEXware ICSPLUS-1 System is rated to 600VDC for integration in a wide range of systems and designed for ease of service and clean wire management. This packaged system is designed to be an easy-to-order, complete solution for battery based systems and includes two combiner boxes, while individual components can be ordered for alternative system needs, including use with grid-direct PV inverters. When used with OutBack power conversion and energy storage components, the system will represent the only single-brand UL and NEC-compliant solution from rooftop to battery. The primary component in the ICS Plus system is the DC combiner box. The ICSPLUS-1 combines up to six PV strings within (1) FWPV6-FH600-SDA combiner which is rated for 15A or 20A fuses (not included) and a combined capacity of 96A and 600VDC. It includes (6) 600 VDC DIN-mounted fuse holders and provides an overcurrent protective device (OCPD) for each circuit. The AFCI device is located here. The combiner provides a means of disconnecting locally, while also providing a means for PV rapid shutdown functionality to de-energize PV circuits within 10 feet of the PV array.
Features
- First end-to-end solution listed to UL1741 with PV rapid shutdown systems (PVRSS)
- Arc fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) listed to UL1699B with local and remote indication
- Type 3R enclosure rated for indoor or outdoor installation
- Flexible design — install the combiner box vertically, horizontally, or at any intermediate angle; mount to racking or under the PV array
- Interoperability with compatible third-party PV rapid shutdown system equipment (PVRSE) with a dry contact input
- Combiner box has removable component panel for ease of wire management and for serviceability
- Combiner box has easy-to-install DIN-mount fuses for bi-directional overcurrent protection
- Lockable disconnects on combiner and rapid shutdown box
- Communications use building wire commonly available in the field (THHN/THWN-2)
- Ground lug and grounding terminal bus bar for system and equipment grounding
- Internal factory prewiring to save time during installation
Includes
- (1) FWPV6-FH600-SDA Combiner
- RSI (Rapid Shutdown Initiator) which works with the combiner box to induce the rapid shutdown function
- PNL-75D-DC-RT - Realy-Trip Breaker (RTB) which physically opens the circuits near the charge controller
- BKR-CTRL-DC - Breaker control and power supply which powers the RSI, RTB and combiner
NOTE: Charge controller is sold separately.
