Photovoltaics · Prevention, alert and extinguishing

We don't sell panels: we protect the ones you already have

Our IoT ecosystem monitors photovoltaic installations already in place, on industrial roofs and on the ground, with one network of our own modules. It prevents before an incident occurs, alerts when one appears and extinguishes if it breaks out. A single solution that serves every panel and every string box equally.

Industrial solar roofs

A power plant on top of your business

On an industrial roof, what lies beneath the panels is your building: production, warehouse and people. There, an electrical incident is not just lost generation. Our modules are distributed across the rows and the string boxes, and monitor continuously without interfering with the operation of the installation.

  • Panel-by-panel monitoring and at each string box
  • Our own modules, with no works on the existing installation
  • Action on the affected point, not on the whole roof
  • Simultaneous alert to your team and the dashboard
Ground-mounted solar fields

Kilometres of rows that nobody walks every day

In a solar plant the problem is distance: many hours and many rows fit between two maintenance rounds. The ecosystem covers the full area with the same network of modules, so that every row and every string box is looked after even when nobody is nearby.

  • Coverage of the whole plant, row by row
  • Our own industrial communications up to the dashboard
  • Weather station integrated into the same network
  • Local response: it doesn't depend on someone watching

An ecosystem that prevents, alerts and extinguishes

A sensing layer is distributed across the installation over a robust industrial network, with complete isolation between our system and the photovoltaic one. Everything is supervised from the client's control panel, which shows the plant status, environmental telemetry and any deviation from reference values. The ecosystem can work in intelligent automatic, supervised or manual mode.

The client supervises the entire installation from their own control panel: status of each zone, environmental telemetry and any deviation from reference values.

Intelligent automaticThe ecosystem decides and acts on its own on the affected point.
SupervisedIt proposes the action and waits for your team's confirmation.
ManualControl remains entirely in the operator's hands.
FIELD SENSING
PreventsA discreet extension installed where it is needed: on the solar panel, in the string box or in any electrical box. It monitors continuously from day one.
ALERT IN SECONDS
AlertsOver a robust industrial network, completely isolated from the photovoltaic installation. It triggers on sparks, light or arcs, the presence of chemicals, smoke or flame, and the deviation is instantly shown on the dashboard.
SUPPRESSED AT SOURCE
ExtinguishesOnce fire is confirmed, the patented and approved Extincise extinguishing acts on the affected point. The plant stays up: the incident is put out, not the installation.

European regulatory framework for the sector

  • EN 54 — Fire detection and fire alarm systems
  • EN IEC 61730 — Photovoltaic module safety
  • EN IEC 62446 — Testing, documentation and maintenance of PV installations
  • Regulation (EU) 305/2011 — Construction products (CPR)
  • Directive 2014/30/EU — Electromagnetic compatibility
  • Directive 2014/35/EU — Low voltage

Our modules are designed in accordance with EN 54. These are the reference standards applicable to the sector; the specific regulatory scope of each installation is determined in the technical phase of the project.

Frequently asked questions

What fire risks does a photovoltaic installation have?

Hot spots in modules and connectors, and DC electric arcs, which can be sustained as long as there is sunlight even if the inverter is disconnected.

Do we need to work on the existing installation?

No. Monitoring is installed per row and in each string box, with no works on the modules.

Which standards are taken into account?

The EN IEC 61730 series for module safety and EN IEC 62446 for the documentation, commissioning and inspection of grid-connected systems.
