"For most commercial and utility scaled installations, it is more economical to install one compact MDSS with up to eight integrated disconnects vs. eight individual disconnects. The MDSS can provide significant benefits in labor, materials and time, resulting in up to 30 percent savings in total costs," said Mitch Schoch, President & CEO of Bentek Solar.
MDSS Provides Customers with key benefits:
- Reduced space requirements
- Reduced material costs
- Reduced labor costs
- Safety and protection of photovoltaic investments
- Complete isolation of the inverter fuses
MDSS Product Features include:
- From three to eight integrated disconnects per MDSS
- 600 or 1000 VDC disconnects
- Multiple 100, 200 and 400 A disconnects in one MDSS
