Stand Alone - Remote Area Power Systems

Springers Solar has a several years experience now designing and installing Off-Grid remote area power systems using solar power the primary source of power.

It is absolutely critical with RAPS systems that high quality, proven products and technology is used. It goes without saying that the failure to design these systems correctly with proven products can result in the loss of power to the home or property. The consequences of this could be dramatic and at the least costly and inconvenient.

Springers has selected and use the following major components in its RAPS stand alone solar power systems:

Interactive Inverter Chargers

Selectronic Interactive Inverter Chargers use a battery to store energy for periods when power demand is low. When the demand is high, or when the battery requires recharging, the inverter automatically starts a generator.

This unique range of inverter chargers allow sharing of the load betweeen the inverter and the generator set, for maxiumum power output.

SP PRO Series

The SP PRO Series Inverters is the latest development of Interactive Inverter Chargers by Selectronic.

The SP PRO manages an off-grid power system providing mains quality power to the load and storing generated excess power in a battery. The SP PRO allows load sharing with generators for maximum power output.

The SP PRO range is available in models from 3000W/24V to 7500W/48V. Simple settings in the included SP LINK software enable the SP PRO to be configured for use in leisure and remote power systems. The SP PRO is suitable for residential, commercial and industrial applications.

Designed from the ground up, the SP PRO features advanced thermal power management and super high speed digital signal processing; setting new standards for reliability, features, surge capability and power density.

MAXIMUM POWER POINT TRACKING SYSTEM

OUTBACK FLEXmax

The FLEXmax family of charge controllers is the latest innovation in Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) charge controllers from OutBack Power Technologies. The innovative FLEXmax MPPT software algorithm is both continuous and active, increasing your photovoltaic array power yield up to 30% compared to non-MPPT controllers. Thanks to active cooling and intelligent thermal management cooling, both FLEXmax charge controllers can operate at their full maximum current rating, 60 Amps or 80 Amps respectively, in ambient temperatures as high as 104°F (40°C).

Included in all of the FLEXmax Charge Controllers are the revolutionary features first developed by OutBack Power, including support for a wide range of nominal battery voltages and the ability to step-down a higher voltage solar array to recharge a lower voltage battery bank. A built-in, backlit 80 character display shows the current status and logged system performance data for the last 128 days at the touch of a button. The integrated OutBack network communications allows FLEXmax series Charge Controllers to be remotely programmed and monitored via a MATE system display and provides unrivaled complete system integration.

FLEXmax MPPT Charge Controllers are the only choice when you demand a high performance, efficient and versatile charge controller for your advanced power system.

BATTERIES

Springers use RAYLITE Solar, flooded cell - Deep Cycle batteries.
