Voodoo Solar LLC-
3.5 KILOWATT DELUXE
OFF-GRID SOLAR ELECTRIC
SYSTEM
COMPLETE WITH GENERATOR
Designed
by Voodoo Solar with high quality components throughout, this off-grid
electric system is complete with all of the deluxe bells and whistles
to provide you with a package that doesn't cut corners.
Proper
balancing of the various components of an electric power system is
essential for dependable operation, and each part has been chosen
carefully to ensure that your system works at peak efficiency for years
to come. As with all packages, there will be certain small
items
that will have to be purchased locally, or may have to be added to suit
your specific needs. Every attempt has been made however, to
make
this package as complete as possible.
Depending on your
individual usage requirements, this off-grid solar electric system will
provide plenty of electricity for the average off-grid home and/or
office, using typical off-grid conservation measures such as energy
efficient appliances. The
Magnum Energy MS4448AE
sinewave power inverter offers 4400 watts of true sinewave power output
to provide utility-grade electricity to protect your sensitive
electronic devices. This inverter has split-phase 120/240
volt AC
output, so it will power typical 120 volt household appliances AND 240
volt loads such as AC well pumps. It is recommended to use
high-efficiency pumps such as the Grundfos, but typical off-the-shelf
submersible pumps will also work. The Magnum inverter is
complete
with a MERC50 remote
programming display, and ME-BMK battery monitor
module that gives your remote display important battery monitoring
capability- an essential feature for your battery's health and long
life.
We're including a high quality
Japanese diesel-engine generator
(Isuzu, Mitsubishi or Kubota) that is rated for 10,000 watts of
continuous output. Like the Magnum inverter, it has 120/240
volt
split output to power all of the tools and appliances in your home or
garage. These high-efficiency, water-cooled, multi-cylinder
Japanese diesel engines are mated to Italian Mecc-Alte alternators for
a reliable, compact package. These generator sets have a long
lifespan, excellent fuel efficiency, quiet operation and start easily.
Generator enclosure, fuel tank, starting battery and battery
cables are not included. Sub-base fuel tank is available on
some
models at additional charge. When the weather is cloudy or
you
need extra power, just start your generator and the Magnum inverter's
built-in battery charger automatically delivers 60 amps (3600 watts) of
charging power to your battery set, simultaneously sending clean AC
power directly to your home for daily needs. Always choose a
diesel generator for best fuel efficiency and longest lifespan.
This generator ships FREE to a business location with
forklift,
or small additional fee to a residence.
The Midnite
Solar power center
is a compact electrical enclosure that is the heart of your home power
system's wiring. It comes to you as a pre-wired, pre-tested
unit
with the Magnum Energy sinewave inverter already
installed. Regardless if you are installing the system
yourself
or employing an electrician, the pre-wired power center saves you time
and potentially costly mistakes. Proper circuit breakers,
lightning arrestors, and correct wire sizes are already installed for
your convenience and safety. Follow the color wiring diagrams
to
install your Apollo charge controller and included circuit breakers.
Connecting the generator, solar
array, and power output to your
home is as simple and straightforward as it gets, and clear wiring
diagrams are provided. This is an attractive, compact unit
that
gives you a clean, safe installation. Main battery disconnect
breaker protects your inverter and provides an easy shut-off for
inverter service. The power center includes a bypass switch
so
your home can still receive direct generator power in the unlikely case
of an inverter problem. The power center has room
for expansion with additional circuit breaker spaces that can be used
to power AC or DC loads.
The heart of any off-grid electrical system is the storage battery, and
this system offers the best. HUP Solar One batteries
are the industry leader with heavy-duty, industrial grade construction
and a 10-year warranty. 7-years replacement + 3-years
pro-rated =
the best battery warranty in the renewable energy field.
Engineered for up to 20-year lifespan, HUP Solar One is the
best
choice to power your renewable-energy home or business. The
HUP
Solar One battery specified for this system is a 48 volt,
series-only
string of 2 volt industrial cells rated for 845 Amp/hours capacity.
Since this is a 48 volt system, battery storage capacity is
doubled compared to the 2.5KW Deluxe system.
A 48 volt battery system provides the most potential output
from
your charge controller, so this system could be upgraded to a second
array at the lowest possible cost.
Parallel battery strings are to be avoided whenever possible,
and
Solar One makes this easy since parallel strings are never needed.
Cells are housed in heavy-duty, epoxy-coated steel containers
for
a safe and tidy installation. Solar One provides their own
custom-built interconnect bars so expensive and unsightly
interconnecting cables are not needed. One look at a Solar
One
battery installation leaves no doubt that you have made the right
buying choice. A top-quality battery desulfator
is included with this system to assist in keeping your battery healthy
and prolonging its lifespan. Reducing sulfation keeps your
battery at full capacity and slows the aging process. A battery
vent fan and relay kit are included to exhaust
noxious battery gases safely to the outdoors. Finally, a Flow Rite Millennium SPW
single-point watering system makes your battery installation complete.
The SPW system consists of specially designed valves that fit
into each battery cell, and a tubing system that connects all of the
valves together. This makes the monthly chore of battery
watering
a safe and easy task. Simply bring your battery to a full
charge,
put the included hose in a gallon of distilled water, and work the easy
hand pump. The SPW system fills each cell to the factory
specified level and then shuts off. Your battery is watered
perfectly with no mess or personal exposure to battery electrolyte.
Voodoo Solar always supplies a free battery hydrometer with
each
battery purchase, so you can monitor your battery's health. This battery ships FREE to a
business location with forklift, or small additional fee to a residence.
The Solar Array for this system consists of 15 high quality REC solar panels,
mounted to a General Specialties UPM18X
post-top mount.
REC solar panels are manufactured from high-grade USA silicon
and
assembled in Sweden. REC offers a modern, reliable solar
module
at an excellent value with a great warranty. The solar panels
connect with MC4 cables for the easiest possible installation.
These 15, 230 watt modules provide the largest array
available on
a single pole mount, minimizing installation costs while giving you
maximum energy harvest at 3450 total watts. This array is
managed
by a sophisticated Apollo T80HV charge controller
with full MPPT (maximum power point tracking) capability.
That
means that your charge controller can harvest of to 30% more energy
from the solar array, compared to non-MPPT controllers. This
effect is especially pronounced when you need it most: during winter
months. The Apollo T80HV also has enhanced monitoring and
display
capabilities compared to other controllers. The array is
mounted
on the highest quality top-of-post-mount available, with heavy-duty
welded steel construction. Even though the array measures
about
16 feet square, seasonal tilt adjustments are simple and easy with the
built-in winch. This is simply the best solar array mounting
structure that you can buy anywhere. There are fixed costs
and
labor associated with each array installation so it saves you money to
gather maximum solar energy from a single array, and the UPM18X is
top-dog. You must supply an 8" schedule 80 steel pipe
(available
locally), plus concrete, conduit, etc. for this array installation.
