Bentek receives over 600MW in initial orders for 1500VDC UTS2 String Combiners
Bentek, announces initial orders for its 1500VDC line of UTS2 integrated disconnect string combiners in excess of 600MW. Bentek has over 30 years of design and manufacturing experience in a broad range of both AC and DC OEM power distribution products for the residential, commercial and utility-scale solar PV marketplaces.
“The Bentek 1500VDC UTS2 string combiners success is based on it’s unique and proprietary combiner design. The Bentek design allows our customers to tailor the amperage of the combiner to each specific Utility-Scale project. Each Bentek combiner comes with an integrated proprietary Bentek 1500VDC load-break disconnect. Bentek’s design offers clients a cost effective tailored disconnect solution based on 25A increments 200A, 225A, 250A, 275A, 300A, 325A, 350A, 375A and 400A, this allows customers to size combiner capacity to their specific needs, significantly reducing system costs. If the applications calls for a 350A combiner, clients no longer need to over pay for a 400A” stated John H. Buckley, Executive of Sales and VP of Marketing for Bentek.
John Buckley went on to say, “Our highly configurable cable harness solutions complement the 1500VDC UTS2 combiner box line and are available in 1500VDC ratings utilizing any commercially available 1500VDC branch connectors and in-line fuses. These unique Bentek 2 circuit parallel cable harness solutions reduce the amount of cable by over 50% while reducing costs by over 30% versus a typical cable harness. When Bentek 2 circuit parallel cable harness solutions are integrated with the Bentek 1500VDC UTS2 combiners in our ISO 9001 certified facility, combined savings of up to 50% can be realized.”
“With over 10GW of installed products including more than 75,000 string combiners shipped to date, we are extremely pleased with customer acceptance of the 1500VDC UTS2 product line. Bentek continues to see strong demand for our 1500VDC PV products. The Bentek 1500VDC UTS2 combiners will continue to support the needs of our customers as they continue to transition from 1000VDC to 1500VDC system designs.“ stated Mitch Schoch, President and CEO of Bentek.
