Tigo’s Announces TS4-A-2F during Solar Power International 2019 - September 23, 2019
Tigo’s Newest MLPE Addition – TS4-A-2F the Most Cost-Effective Rapid Shutdown Solution – announced at Solar Power International 2019
TS4-A-2F (Fire Safety) is the TS4 Platform’s newest advanced rapid shutdown solution for two modules up to 1000W and standard configuration of 1500V
Los Gatos, CA, September 23, 2019 – Tigo®, pioneer of the smart modular Flex MLPE & TS4 Platform, today announced its new TS4-A-2F (Fire Safety), the advanced retrofit/add-on rapid shutdown solution for two modules that provides smart PV module functionality. The TS4-A-2F is the newest, most partner adopted, and most cost-effective addition to Tigo’s advanced generation of flexible module-level power electronics in the TS4 Platform.
The UL-certified TS4-A-2F complies with NEC 2017 690.12 Rapid Shutdown specifications when installed with Tigo’s UL-certified RSS Transmitter or an inverter with Tigo's built-in RSS Transmitter. The unit’s powerline communication can be easily verified with Tigo’s RSS Signal Detector. System owners can ensure safety by upgrading existing PV systems or by adding these safety features to new installations. With this improved lightweight hardware, lower labor costs, and application for two modules, the TS4-A-2F is quickly becoming the most adopted rapid shutdown solution on in the industry.
The highlights of TS4-A-2F include:

The highlights of TS4-A-2F include:
- Maximum Total Power is 1000W for two modules
- Maximum Current is 15A per input
- Available as 1500V UL
- UL-certified as NEC 2017 Rapid Shutdown Solution
- Snap to standard module frame or rack mounting
- Module-level deactivation with automatic or manual shutdown
- PV array enters rapid shutdown in event of AC grid loss
- Powerline communication (PLC) signaling
- Smaller unit dimensions with reduced weight per unit by 25%
- Reduced shipping costs with 33% more units per pallet
- Recessed mounting allows shipments of pre-assembled PV modules
- Improved heat dissipation with over-temperature and over-voltage protection
- Improved IP68 rating for greater outdoor exposure

Tigo’s TS4-A-2F will showcase at the Solar Power International (SPI) Exhibition Hall in Salt Lake City, Utah September 24 – 26, 2019. The UL-listed inverters with Tigo’s rapid shutdown solution showing at SPI include CPS (Booth 2201), Fronius (Booth 2019), GoodWe (Booth 2609), SolaX Power (Booth 719), Yaskawa Solectria Solar (Booth 2125), and more. The smart module manufacturers integrated with Tigo showing at SPI include GCL (Booth 1001), JA Solar (Booth 1219), Phono Solar (Booth 301), Suntech (Booth 211), Vikram Solar (4055), and more. To schedule an appointment or for an introduction to one of Tigo's manufacturing partners at SPI, contact sales@tigoenergy.com.
“Tigo’s TS4-A-2F is the most cost-effective rapid shutdown solution on the market today thanks to the accommodation of two modules,” says Zvi Alon, Chairman & CEO at Tigo. “Our inverter and module manufacturing partners see the value in this solution due to its readiness for new or existing systems of any size. Solar Power International is the perfect event to launch while we can collaborate with our many tier one partners to offer this UL-certified solution.”
Tigo’s TS4-A-2F is shipping with module manufacturers and distributors worldwide. This unit joins the other advanced retrofit/add-on units announced earlier this year: TS4-A-F (Fire Safety), TS4-A-O (Optimization), and TS4-A-O-Duo (Optimization per 2 modules). For price and delivery, consult your preferred PV module supplier, call Tigo at +1.408.402.0802 ext. 1, or email sales@tigoenergy.com.
