By Kelsey Misbrener | June 13, 2023

Morningstar Corporation announced it is now shipping two new products. The new GenStar MPPT essentially re-invents the solar DC system controller, while the new SureSine line of off-grid industrial inverters matches the quality and engineering for which Morningstar charge controllers are renowned.

The recently introduced GenStar DC Solar DC System Controller and SureSine pure sine-wave inverters are in full production, and available through Morningstar’s world-wide distribution network. As a fully-integrated Solar DC System Controller, GenStar MPPT represents the flagship of Morningstar’s new Integrated Series, while the new SureSine inverter series enables solar professionals to design systems that are all Morningstar, with no weak links in the component chain.

The new GenStar MPPT line consists of three models, ranging from 60- to 100-A at 200-V input.

“We started with an all-new design incorporating ‘lithium DNA’ and most requested key communication, control and power conversion features,” said Morningstar’s product management director and upcoming CEO Bill Mellema. “GenStar has all essential communications, connectivity and network integration features on-board, without the need for wiring on adapters or outside equipment — it’s all built-in.”

Morningstar’s new SureSine off-grid inverter line is designed and built for the most mission-critical installations in industrial applications, including telecom, oil and gas, security, rural electrical electrification and more. The line consists of six primary models from 150- to 2,500-W with 120- or 230-V output and 12-, 24- or 48-VDC input options.
