RS PRO 5wp Solar Panel Kit Bulk Pack
This 5wp panel is ideal to prevent battery drain in caravans, motor homes and boats. It contains a reverse feed diode to prevent back feed and is supplied with all the necessary cable, connections and detailed instructions.
The ideal choice to prevent battery drain. The 5 watt panel provides a continuous trickle feed maintaining and extending the life of any 12 volt battery. The 5 watt solar panel is fitted with a blocking diode to prevent reverse current drain
Features and Benefits
• High-efficiency crystalline cell for “all-weather” charging;• Perfect for battery maintenance and off-grid lighting projects• Water resistant, robust construction for outdoor use.;• Inbuilt diode protects against battery discharge;• 20 year cell warranty and 10 year module warranty**
Applications
Solar “photovoltaic” panels use the power of the sun to generate electricity and can be used in a variety of applications from calculators to homes. They are most effective, versatile and cost-saving in many commercial and leisure applications for charging 12/24V batteries.
Solar panels provide power through batteries at off-grid and isolated locations and are widely used in critical telecommunications and telemetry applications. Solar panels enable rapid installation of equipment at remote sites, either temporary or permanent, avoiding the costs and inconvenience of grid connection. They are designed for very low maintenance and longevity.
How Much Power?
The daily power production of a solar panel can be calculated by multiplying the panel’s peak power rating by between 0.5 and 6 depending on the time of year, angle and location. For example; an 80Watt solar panel produces a peak current of 4.55A.
What is the best way to install solar panel systems?
• Installing solar panels at a 55-65° angle increases optimal wintertime performance.
• For a year-round power supply, solar panels can be combined with wind chargers.
• Solar systems can be connected in parallel to increase power and in series to increase voltage.
• To complete the system deep cycle batteries, a voltage regulator and electrical cables are required to get up and running. A range of convenient mounting kits are available for pole or wall mounting.
Do solar panels work on cloudy days?
To optimize solar energy generation, solar power panels and charging implements work most effectively in direct sunlight. They can still charge on cloudy days, though it will not provide as much power.
Why RS PRO?
RS PRO is the brand of choice for reliability and versatility. With a range of products all tested by in-house experts, you're sure to find a high-quality and cost-effective solution to your application.
