PVSTOP Solar Panel Block Out for Fire and Rescue Services

Make solar energy safe with PVSTOP

Essential for Fire and Rescue Services and First Responders

 PVSTOP Solar Panel Block Out is the only known solution for ‘switching off’ solar panels, making them safe in the event of a short circuit or emergency incidents such as a fire, flood or storm. PVSTOP acts as a liquid blanket sprayed onto the solar panel and blocking out the light – the energy source, and rendering the solar PV system electrically safe.

Who is PVSTOP for 

Fire and Rescue Service personnel operating in and around PV solar panels that produce dangerous DC electricity are at risk whilst PV solar panels remain exposed to light.

Whilst other safety systems can operate effectively downstream, they do not address the risk that exists at the point of power generation, the panels themselves.

Consequently, firefighters operating without a product that mitigates the risk of electric shock from PV panels will often not be able to intervene safely.

Using PVSTOP to switch off the solar panel first, service personnel are protected from the hazards of lethal DC voltage and can safely respond to the situation.

What does PVSTOP do

The primary function of PVSTOP is to render panels to be electrically safe. PVSTOP Solar Panel Block Out allows users to cover solar panels in seconds. The water-based polymer film blocks light to the PV cells upon application.

The polymer film sticks to solar panels during all weather conditions. Even if the PV modules are wet, the coating will stick to the solar panel. When PVSTOP is dry, it is waterproof, non-flammable and electrically non-conductive. Post-incident PVSTOP can be safely and easily peeled off and disposed of as non-hazardous waste.

PVSTOP empowers firefighters and first responders with a reactive tool that will render solar panels electrically safe when required.

We are sure that with the significant and increasing adoption of solar energy power generation, PVSTOP Solar Panel Block Out will become essential safety equipment for all UK Fire and Rescue Services tackling fires in and around solar PV equipment.
