Solmetric is a US-based manufacturer of photovoltaic testing instruments, best known for its PVA series of I-V curve tracers and PV analyzers. The company develops tools specifically designed for solar energy professionals who need to characterize, commission, and troubleshoot photovoltaic systems. Solmetric instruments measure the current-voltage characteristics of solar modules and strings to identify performance degradation, cell defects, shading effects, and wiring faults.
The PVA-1500 series supports high-voltage PV systems up to 1500 V, addressing requirements of modern utility-scale and commercial solar installations. Models with varying current ratings and configurations allow testing of individual modules, strings, and arrays under real-world field conditions, with integrated software for data analysis and reporting.
Key Product Lines
- I-V curve tracers — PVA-1500 series for characterizing PV module and string performance at up to 1500 V
- PV analyzers — integrated hardware and software for solar system commissioning and diagnostics
- Accessory kits — cables, reference cells, and software packages for field measurements
Industries Served
Solmetric instruments are used by solar contractors, EPC firms, O&M service providers, and research institutions. Applications include pre-commissioning acceptance testing, performance ratio analysis, warranty verification, and ongoing O&M diagnostics across residential, commercial, and utility-scale photovoltaic installations.
