80Wp Solar Panel
- RS Stock No. 769-4233
- Mfr. Part No. STP080MA
- Manufacturer Solar Technology
80wp Solar Panel
The 80W panel provides much higher power demands and includes bypass diodes to minimise the effect of shadows. It delivers maximum power in the smallest module size saving weight and space. Suitable for powering many higher power consumption devices.
The 80 watt panel provides a continuous trickle feed maintaining and extending the life of any 12 volt battery
High efficiency crystalline cell for "all weather" charging
Dimensions: 1196x542x35mm
Weight: 7.8kg
Amps/day: up to 35-84
Amps/Hr: 5.12
Perfect for boat trips, extended caravan touring and for permanent fitting
Water resistant, robust construction for outdoor use.
20 year cell warranty and 10 year module warranty
Note
For use in the largest caravans, medium sized motorhomes/boats,
extended (240V**) TV, games machines, DVD players, sky boxes
**through an inverter (not supplied)
The 8Ah (STS01208) Charge controller (sold separately) RS 706-7943 should be used with this kit to protect the battery from being overcharged and to prevent reverse current drain
Supplied with
Cable (5m), connectors, detailed installation instructions and a free digital test meter to enable the user to analyse the performance of both solar panel and battery.
Solar Panels and Chargers
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.
Solar Installation
Solar panels are usually installed at a 55-65° angle for optimal wintertime performance. For a year round power supply solar panels can be combined with Wind chargers.
Solar panels 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.
