[RE-wrenches] Adding Charge Controller(s)

Hello, Looked at a system today that consisted of the following: 15 - Kyocera 158W modules 3 - Kyocera 185W modules 1 - Outback MX60 8 - New Trojan L16RE (48V system) 1 - Xantrex SW Plus 6 months ago he swapped out his old charge controller to the new MX60 and purchased the new

Re: [RE-wrenches] Adding Charge Controller(s)

Hi Jeffe, I don't know the specs on those Kyocera, but if they are the same VOC then they are fine together. As to a enclosure for the CC's, I'd look at Midnight. They have about a million different boxes, you'll find one that will do the job for you I'm sure. Depending on the area, you might

[RE-wrenches] Security on a ground mount?

We've got a system to go up in the student ghetto in the middle of town, so of course we got drunks and little pirates. Height has always been a solution but requires a lot beefier (pronounced expensive) support pipes. What security measures does everyone recommend of a system that is low enough

Re: [RE-wrenches] Security on a ground mount?

Weld 'em in a steel frame. Even then, a battery operated cutoff tool will have the frames open in minutes. Height will really slow them down but make sure they can't back up a vehicle and pull the array down…...Yes, I have had that happen. Larry On Oct 24, 2013, at 1:37 PM, William

Re: [RE-wrenches] Adding Charge Controller(s)

Jay , The modules have different electrical specs... I'd like to use the midnight because the new array in series is at 148V. We see -40F. He already has the Outback 60 on site. That's why with 2 existing outback products I figure the Flexware route would work best. Thanks! Jesse Sent

Re: [RE-wrenches] Adding Charge Controller(s)

Not sure what this is worth, but with most Kyocera modules that used the same size cells (but different amount of cells per module) you could wire many different VOC modules in series as long as the total number of CELLS per string was the same. It wouldnt matter what the individual module ratings
