Compatible Hardware
Deliver data to our servers from multiple devices and see all your data in one place.
We provide web-based monitoring and management tools
gathering data from solar thermal (heating & cooling) systems,
Photovoltaic, and conventional fuel backup systems. Data is
data. So if your controller or data acquisition system can send
us your data we can provide better tools to display and manage
your system.
​
We have an open data API that allows users to submit any kind
of data from any device. Most users would prefer to buy a
device that submits the data automatically and not have to
worry about it, and therefore we work with manufacturers to
help make it all plug-and-play. Whether you use one of the
recommended devices we already have integrated, or you
need to submit data from a new data source, the system is
open, easy to use, and has no lock-in.
​
There are various hardware packages that allow for easy plug in setup that you may want to choose. As an independent “3rd party” we offer a neutral platform focused on any single or multi device system. Here are some available devices from which we currently receive data.
​
-
The Thermal-grid DL2 is compatible with all solar controllers with VBus data connections including those manufactured by Resol, Stiebel-Eltron, Caleffi, Viessmann.
​
-
RESOL is a manufacturer of a line of sophisticated solar controllers able to handle any solar heating, cooling or distribution functions. Hardware is compatible with all controllers and heat-meters(WMZ, WMZ-G1) with VBus communications.
​
-
Solar-Log® gathers data from Photovoltaic inverters and can deliver data about your PV system so it can be added to solar thermal and other data, providing a complete management tool.
​
-
EKM Metering offers “EKM Push” and metering packages which includes kWh meters and a Internet enabled gateway. (Link)
​
-
eGauge Systems LLC offers electrical energy monitoring hardware that can be added to your Thermal-grid site.
​
-
Embedded Data Systems offers "HA7Net - Ethernet 1-Wire Host Adapter". It is capable of reading 1-wire sensors that can give additional temperature, humidity and other sensor data, which can be added to a Thermal-grid site. (Link)
​
-
TIGO offers PV optimizers and monitoring to deliver data for each individual PV module installed at a site so it can added to solar thermal and other data on the Thermal-Grid monitoring platform
​
-
Homtecs M2M Modbus Router offers a cellular and wifi router which enables any device with MODBUS RTU or MODBUS TCP capability to deliver its data to the Thermal-Grid monitoring platform.
​
-
SolarEdge offers PV Inverters and PV optimizers with the added benefit of being able to push data to the Thermal-Grid monitoring platform to view SolarEdge PV data and Thermal or other data in one location.
​
-
Electro Industries/GaugeTech offers the Shark 200 and 270 Power and Energy Meters which can measure Electrical Power and Energy and send that data in pulse output or can connect directly to an internet connection to send data to the Thermal-Grid monitoring platform.
​
SolarWave is accomodating to any device which can deliver data to our servers. If you don't see something on the list contact us and we can work together to view data from your device. For questions about hardware compatibility contact support@solarwave.com
