What’s included
- Glade Microinverters: RM-450M-X and RM-900M-X (25-year limited warranty)
- Gateway: Sub‑1G site communication + Wi‑Fi/Ethernet + Bluetooth commissioning
- Glade NEST App: installer workflow for setup, binding, and verification
- Glade Cloud: web platform for monitoring and fleet management
About GIETRON
Headquartered in Alberta, Canada, Gietron develops next-generation technologies designed to reduce waste, maximize resource efficiency, and create long-term environmental and economic value.
As a first-of-its-kind initiative in the Canadian renewable sector, Gietron focuses on turning underutilized materials and energy streams into valuable resources through circular economy principles.
Glade Microinverters
Why microinverters matter
For residential and light commercial rooftops, microinverters help reduce mismatch losses and simplify troubleshooting at the module level. The result is typically:
- More predictable energy yield in complex roof conditions
- Faster fault isolation and fewer truck rolls
- Better long-term serviceability as projects scale
Two models for residential and small commercial
Glade microinverters deliver panel-level conversion with a consistent, installer-first design philosophy across the lineup.
- Plug-and-play for faster wiring and cleaner installs
- MC4 DC connectors
- Dual independent MPPTs
- Natural convection cooling (no fans, no moving parts)
- LED indicators for quick on-site status checks
Built for Canadian conditions
- Operating temperature: –40°C to +65°C
- Protection rating: IP67 / NEMA 6
- Tested to 4,000 m altitude

Warranty that matches the system lifecycle
Glade microinverters include a 25-year limited warranty with the option of a 5-year or 10-year extension, aligned with the expected service life of the PV modules they support—built to reduce long-term risk for installers and system owners.
Certification & compliance (North America)
Glade series are engineered to meet North American markets with key interconnection standards.
Certifications
- UL 1741
- IEEE 1547
Additional certifications and regional utility requirements vary by jurisdiction and are being finalized. Contact GIETRON for the latest documentation and status.
Gateway — Communication hub
The Gateway connects Glade microinverters to the internet and enables data flow to the Glade monitoring platforms.
Core capabilities
- Sub‑1G communication to microinverters (up to 99 nodes)
- Coverage up to 400 m (outdoor) / 90 m (indoor/urban)
- Wi‑Fi (2.4/5 GHz) and dual Ethernet (10/100 Mbps) connectivity options
- Bluetooth v5.4 for phone-first on-site commissioning
- Local resilience via SD card storage and fault-recovery data transfer
- Security with identity authentication and end‑to‑end encryption
Gateway warranty: 5-year limited (10-year option available).
Glade NEST App — installer commissioning workflow (iOS & Android)
Glade NEST streamlines on-site setup from initial pairing to verification.
Key functions
- Commission the Gateway via Bluetooth (no laptop required)
- Bind microinverters via QR scan or serial entry
- Configure network settings (Wi‑Fi/Ethernet)
- Verify system health quickly during handover
- View live status, settings, and performance insights
Glade Cloud — professional monitoring & fleet management
Glade Cloud provides remote visibility across single sites or portfolios.
Highlights
- Portfolio overview: sites, online devices, energy, alerts
- Device monitoring and alert management
- Historical data review and exports
- Firmware package management and batch upgrades
- Role-based access for admins, channels/distributors, installers, and owners
Why the Glade Series
Glade is built as an ecosystem so installers can standardize workflows—from commissioning to monitoring—while keeping flexibility for different project needs.
Installer-first, end to end
- Designed to reduce time on the roof and time in the truck
- Clear device status and structured monitoring for faster service
- Hardware + software that’s meant to work together from day one
