Solar Charged System
The solar option allows you to install the gate operator in remote areas
or in applications where you prefer to be solar charged. Solar charging
provides isolation from lightning that might damage the unit via the AC
power needed for the transformer. The use of solar friendly accessories
will help prevent premature battery failure.
The Solar model Ranger gate operator comes with a 10 watt solar panel and is designed to provide
enough cycles a day for most installations without needing more than one solar panel. Care must be
taken to ensure the solar panel has full sun throughout the day; partial sun will give partial results. If
no sun is present then a solar system is not practical no matter how many panels might be installed.
The solar panel must be kept clean and in full sunlight.
The location of the solar panel is critical for proper battery charging. The panel needs to face a South
to Southwest direction and be installed at the angle of the supplied solar panel bracket. For proper
operation the panel must have unobstructed sun. Even a small amount of shade will cause the Solar
Panel to cease charging. Something as tiny as a fingertip shadow will affect the Solar Panel.
Solar panel may be moved up to 200 feet from the control box to achieve adequate sunlight. See
power source cable extension chart Appendix A for proper wire size. For convenience use the
USAutomatic 75’ Cable Kit Part #520016.
See Region Map below to determine cycles that can be expected. These numbers are based on a
basic system with the standard 10 watt solar panel. Adding solar friendly accessories will not have
any great affect on the numbers stated. Using other accessories can cause premature battery failure.

Region 1 covers the area of the country receiving the least amount of solar radiation. On average the
amount of charge time is 2.5 hours in region 1, 3.5 hours in region 2 and 5.5 hours in region 3.
