5. Power Supplies
5.1 12 and 24 AHr Sealed Rechargeable Batteries
Typically, the system is powered with a 12 AHr sealed rechargeable battery
that connects to a CH12R regulator and an MSX10 solar panel. The 12 AHr
battery lasts 15 to 20 days per charge. A 24 AHr sealed rechargeable battery
which lasts 30 to 40 days is available.
This assumes the data are trans-mitted for 30 seconds at 3 hour
intervals, the datalogger's scan rate is 1 second, and the sensors
have negligible power consumption.
A discharged 12 AHr battery is recharged by a 10 watt solar panel in 2 to 3
days when there are a 1000 watts per square meter of illumination and the solar
panel temperature is 25
°
C. A 20 watt solar panel is available. The battery
voltage should be monitored with datalogger program Instruction 10, sampled,
and output as a part of the user’s data stream.
5.2 AC Power and Deep-Cycle Rechargeable Batteries
Although either the 12 or 24 AHr battery is sufficient for most systems,
applications with high current drain sensors or peripherals (e.g., SDM devices)
might require AC power or a user-supplied deep-cycle rechargeable battery that
is trickle-charged with an MSX20R solar panel. Campbell Scientific's power
supply brochure and application note provide information about determining
your system's power requirements.
5.3 Datalogger's Batteries
The transmitter's power consumption is too high for alkaline batteries. The
21XL's rechargeable batteries do not source sufficient current for the
transmitter. Although the PS12LA 7 AHr battery can power the transmitter, the
battery only lasts 3 to 7 days per charge. One option is to have the datalogger's
batteries power the datalogger and sensors, while the transmitter uses a 12 AHr
battery, a 24 AHr battery, or a deep-cycle battery.
The datalogger's batteries should be removed when not in use.
Rechargeable batteries should be trickle charged by a PS12LA or
CH12R charger.
6. Installation
6.1 Wiring
Typically, ENC SAT hardware (excluding the battery and solar panel) and the
datalogger are premounted and prewired. The enclosure's ground lug must be
connected to an appropriate earth ground (see Table 6.1-1).
