Analysis of lifetime and reliability

We calculate the lifetime and reliability of power electronics and thus enable you to determine the lifetime of your inverter.

With the help of MTBF calculations, we determine the mean time between failures of your product. We measure specific characteristics such as temperature, currents and voltages.

To reflect MTBF times of PV applications as realistic as possible, we incorporate power and sun curves into our calculations.
