ATL SOLAR POWER COMPONENTS
Renewable Energy Source
Harvest Electricity
Directly from the Sun!
» Solar Cells contain
silicon, which capture the sun's energy and convert it
to electricity.
» Solar Panel consists
of a collection of solar cells to generate DC power.
» Solar Array comprises
of one or more solar panels, which convert sunlight into
clean solar electricity at a desired DC output or
wattage.
» Charge Controller
prevents over charging which results in out-gassing of
the batteries. It also keeps electrical storage in the
batteries from discharging to the solar modules at
night.
» Battery Bank stores
the solar power generated and discharge the power as
needed. It consists of one or more deep-cycle batteries.
Depending on the current and voltages for certain
applications the batteries are wired in series and/or in
parallel.
» Inverter changes the
DC solar power into usable 120/240 Volt AC electricity
used by equipment, appliances and lighting.
» Loads are the
appliances and devices (such as TV's, computers, lights,
water pumps etc.) that consume electric power. |
