SL550 Advanced Solar PV Test Kit
The Di‑LOG SL550 Solar PV Test Kit is a complete, high-performance solution engineered for the installation, commissioning and maintenance of modern solar photovoltaic systems. Combining a precision solar irradiance survey meter, a CAT III 1500V DC True RMS Bluetooth clamp meter and professional MC4 test leads, the SL550 provides everything required for accurate solar PV testing in a single, portable kit.
Designed for both domestic and commercial PV applications, the SL550 enables comprehensive system verification by measuring solar irradiance, module temperature, DC voltage, AC/DC current, power and energy. The advanced survey functionality supports IEC 62446-1 compliant testing, the international standard for grid-connected PV system documentation, commissioning and inspection. This includes measurement of irradiance from 50 to 1400W/m², panel surface and underside temperature, roof pitch and array orientation, ensuring accurate system performance validation and correct installation alignment.
For electrical testing, the integrated 1500V DC clamp meter delivers True RMS accuracy with measurement capabilities up to 1500V DC and 1000A AC/DC, making it ideal for high-efficiency PV arrays and modern inverter systems. With Bluetooth connectivity, advanced diagnostic features such as power and energy analysis (kW, kVA, kVAR and kWh), harmonic measurement, inrush current capture and LowZ testing enable efficient fault finding, performance validation and troubleshooting of PV installations.
Supplied with CAT III 1500V rated MC4 solar test leads, the SL550 ensures safe and secure connections for open circuit voltage testing and system checks directly at the array. Built for durability and ease of use in demanding environments, the SL550 provides solar engineers with a reliable, all-in-one solution to meet modern PV testing requirements and industry standards
