Banner Engineering BWA-SOLAR-001 FlexPower solar supply

Friday, 15 January, 2010 | Supplied by: Micromax Pty Ltd


Banner Engineering has released the FlexPower solar supply, BWA-SOLAR-001, specifically designed for powering SureCross wireless network devices.

It offers an integrated charge controller, rechargeable battery pack, AC wall charger and mounting hardware. The battery pack recharges in direct sunlight and continues to power the SureCross devices autonomously when sunlight is not available. The solar supply is a suitable solution for applications where wired power is not available or that require more power than a single-cell DX81 battery supply can provide.

The FlexPower solar supply can be used in addition to the DX81P6 six-pack battery supply as a backup power source. If the solar panel is damaged, the DX81P6 battery supply will provide backup power for a few weeks or longer, depending on the load. For example, the battery backup can support a 2-wire sensor powered continuously with 15 V at 20 mA and a FlexPower node transmitting once per second for up to 30 days.

Banner’s FlexPower solar supply is a stand-alone power option that enables wireless sensing where wired power is not available. The use of rechargeable batteries reduces the number of batteries necessary for long-term operation and ultimately minimises electronic waste and saves money.
