The CSI-75/80/90/100K-T480GL02-U is a family of Canadian Solar three-phase string inverters that turn PV array DC power into AC power for local loads and for export to the grid. The 100K model takes up to 1000 V DC and connects to a 480 V three-phase grid with PE at 60 Hz. Each input is rated for 26 A. The 75K has eight inputs, the 80K has nine, and the 90K and 100K each have ten. The 75K and 80K models have a maximum efficiency of 98.7%, and the 90K and 100K models reach 99.0%. The 75K model is rated at 90.2 A AC output current. RS485 communication is standard. Wifi, GPRS, PLC and Ethernet are optional. The DC connectors are MC4. Each unit has a two-line LCD display, weighs 85 kg and is rated at 65 dB(A) or less of noise.
