This system provides all the
power for an off-grid home in the Clancy area. With a peak of 1.2
KW output, this solar array stores the excess current in a battery
bank composed of 12 Surrette Rolls Batteries, which provide a cumulative
of 2500 Amp Hours of capacity at the 100 HR Rate. The Outback FX3524
and MX60 was employed in this system.
Located in Paradise Valley thissystem was primarily to provide for lighting and well pumping.
Four 24 V 245 AH AGM Sealed Batteries were combined
in parallel to provide for 980 Amp Hours. AGM batteries require little
to no maintenance, and self discharge is minimal making them excellent
batteries for a seasonal cabin.
Nice and tidy, this Xantrex DR Inverter
provides for 1500 continuous watts. The Battery Monitor to the left
allows for instant system examination. .
This
system utilizes 32 50 Watt Solar Modules, Mounted on an "in house"
constructed pole mount. With a cumulative peak output of 1.6 KW, this
power is stored in an 375 AH battery bank, which is then inverted
to 110 for use in the house.
Behold the Lunar Landing! Yes but it's extremely functional
Using 16 165 Watt Solar Modules, this
system has a peak output of 2645 Watts. The modules are used to charge
a battery bank consisting of 36 Deep Cycle Batteries
With a
total of 1782 Amp Hours at 24 V, this Systems has been designed to
sustain the owner for 5 days of no sunlight, and at a 3 amp draw.
Two Trace C60 Charge
Controllers were used to regulate current into the battery bank,
which is then inverted to 110 V using a Trace Xantrex inverter.
