There are now 15 different FIMER inverter models, ranging from 3.3 kW to 60 kW that have been UL listed with Tigo’s rapid shutdown devices.

“FIMER is very excited for this certification and compliance with Tigo Energy’s rapid shutdown devices as it opens up the market for FIMER’s residential and commercial inverters,” said Eduardo Casilda, CEO USA at FIMER.

Featuring light, compact designs, integrated monitoring and user interface, and a quick commissioning process, FIMER string inverters are an ideal solution for rooftop, carport and ground mount solar installations.

The UL listing includes the entirety of Tigo’s TS4 family of Flex-MLPE, providing customers that use FIMER inverters significant flexibility with the features they want from their Module Level Power Electronics (MLPE). With Tigo, customers have the freedom to choose from a menu of features such as optimization, monitoring, or just the rapid shutdown function — according to the needs of their project.

“We are thrilled to be working with FIMER to offer our customers the leading inverter options for their PV projects,” said Dru Sutton, Tigo’s VP of Sales for North America. “Customers can pair their inverters with our MLPE and know the technology meets rapid shutdown requirements across the US.”

Below is a list of FIMER’s newest string inverter product line that is UL PVRSS certified with Tigo’s MLPE:

• UNO-DM-3.3-TL-PLUS-US
• UNO-DM-3.8-TL-PLUS-US
• UNO-DM-4.6-TL-PLUS-US
• UNO-DM-5.0-TL-PLUS-US
