3.2 - Preliminay installation
To ascertain suitability of the system with respect to the specific fea-
tures of the automation to be powered, the following checks should
be performed as well as a check for compliance of the technical data
in the chapter "Technical characteristics".
In the vicinity of the automation to be powered, locate the ideal point
for installation of the photovoltaic panel and the location for the bat-
tery, taking into consideration the following restraints:
a) i limiti d'impiego (paragrafo 3.1).
b) the maximum length of the power cable (3 m) and the cable of the
photovoltaic panel (3 m).
c) the space available in the vicinity of the automation to be powered.
d) ensure that the selected surfaces for installation of the two devices
are solid and guarantee a stable fixture.
e) ensure that each device to be installed is in a sheltered location
and protected against the risk of accidental impact.
f) in particular, for each device ensure the following:
photovoltaic panel
– ensure that the selected panel installation site guarantees 100%
direct exposure to sunlight (full sun) every day of the year.
– ensure that the selected panel installation site is far from vegeta-
tion, walls or other situations that may create shade, even partial, on
the sensitive surfaces of the panel. Caution! – this surface must be
exposed to direct sunlight in all points; partial shade, even if small in
size (for example caused by a leaf or other object) will significantly
reduce the power capacity of the panel.
– check the possibility of correctly positioning and inclining the panel,
with reference to the technical instructions in Chapter 3.3.
battery box
To ensure optimal efficiency of the battery and prolonged battery life-
time, it should be installed in a location – in the vicinity of the automa-
tion to be powered – protected against high summer temperatures
and low winter temperatures.
In fact the battery charge performance depends on the ambient tem-
perature where the battery is installed: optimal efficiency is obtained
at medium temperatures, while efficiency is considerably reduced at
low temperatures.
On the other hand, battery lifetime is influenced above all by high
summer temperatures, which accelerate part ageing. Normally the
battery average lifetime is approx. 4-5 years; this also depends on
the intensity of automation use.
