COVER ENERGY REQUIREMENTS
Cover motor specification label.
The motor has a maximum power of 120 W per hour
(P = U x I = 24 x 5.00 = 120 W).
During an opening/closure cycle for a 4 m x 8 m pool
for example, the cover runs for 4 minutes (2 minutes
in one direction and 2 minutes in the other, or
0.06 hours on one cycle) . The motor is not at its
maximum and the average consumer intensity for
the cycle is 2 A.
The 4 m x 8 m COVER CONSUMES 3 Wh of ENERGY
(E = P x t = U x I x t = 24 x 2 x 0.06 = 2.9 Wh) for one
open-close cycle.
The cover (4 m x 8 m) only uses 2 % of the battery
reserve for an Open-Close cycle. Full batteries can
power 40 cycles while leaving enough in reserve to
allow a safety closure.
(In comparison, a 6 m x 12 cover that consumes
an average of 3 A in 6 minutes uses 7.2 Wh, or 4 %
of the batteries).
11.4 Solar kit element winterisation
PLEASE REMEMBER: The SOLAR PANEL and the charge
REGULATOR, can STAY IN POSITION over the WINTER.
If the SOLAR PANEL is NOT COVERED and continues
to charge, the BATTERIES can STAY IN PLACE.
OTHERWISE, the BATTERIES must be disconnected
and STORED IN A DRY PLACE at between 10 °C and 20
°C after having been charged to 100 %, then recharged
every 4 months, and before reuse.
11.5 Example of produced, stored and used
energy calculation
THE PANEL: PRODUCTION
Solar panel specifications label.
Correctly exposed, it produces current:
0.31 A
maximum at 26 V for an output at
100 %,
or a power
of 8 W per hour (P = U x I = 26 x 0.31 = 8 W).
For 5 hours of SUNLIGHT per day, the PANEL supplies
40 Wh of ENERGY per day (E = P x t = 8 x 5 = 40 Wh).
THE BATTERY: STORAGE
The BATTERIES have a CAPACITY of 7 Ah, or a stock
of ENERGY of 168 Wh (E = P x t = U x I x t = 24 x 7 x 1
= 168 Wh).
