my-PV SOL•THOR – DC Power Manager for Photovoltaic Heat
Solar power directly converted into heat – without an inverter, without a grid connection.
The SOL•THOR is a 0–3,6 kW continuously controlled DC power manager for photovoltaic heat and can be flexibly used with a PV system of 1 to 10 PV modules – without any extra inverter.
Maximum efficiency through direct use
The direct current from the photovoltaic modules is transferred almost without loss directly to a connected heating element and thus efficiently converted into heat. This means: no detour via the power grid, no conversion losses – every watt of solar power generated goes directly into your hot water storage tank.
Self-sufficient operation – even in the event of a power outage
Thanks to its self-sufficient operation, the SOL•THOR requires no connection to the power grid, as the unit is entirely self-sufficient thanks to its PV generator. This also eliminates the need for grid feed-in, inverters, and connection permits. Another advantage: the SOL•THOR continues to function even during a power outage – ensuring your hot water supply remains uninterrupted.
Easy installation & retrofitting
The cables from the PV modules are simply connected directly to the SOL•THOR via MC4 connectors. The heating element in the thermal storage tank – whether new or already installed – is easily connected to the power manager. This allows existing heating elements in current thermal storage tanks to be controlled by the SOL•THOR – making the simple and economical retrofitting of an eco-friendly heating system a viable option.
Flexible and versatile
Two heating elements can be alternately controlled to optimally adjust heat generation (stratified charging). In addition to using the my-PV screw-in heating element, conventional electric boilers can also be controlled with the SOL•THOR – the stepless control makes them suitable for photovoltaic systems and achieves maximum heat output.
Hot water supply guaranteed even on cloudy days
Should the PV yield be insufficient in bad weather, the SOL•THOR can optionally switch to grid power, ensuring that hot water is available at all times.
Connected & intelligent
Operating data can be queried via LAN, WLAN, or RS485. The SOL•THOR can be integrated into the my-PV Cloud – this allows all user data to be accessed from anywhere, provided there is an internet connection.
Excellent design
In the category “Excellent Product Design – Building and Elements”, the SOL•THOR received the “Winner” award at the German Design Award 2025.
