Votronic LCD Solar Computer S

Energy and power meter for the solar system
How much energy does my solar system actually deliver? Are the solar modules shaded or dirty or is something wrong? To be able to answer these questions, VOTRONIC offers the LCD Solar Computer S, which is simply connected to the VOTRONIC solar charge controller of the SR and MPP series and immediately provides comprehensive information.

The LCD Solar Computer S can also be connected to the controller at a later date, as the VOTRONIC solar charge controllers are already prepared for this and provide the required signals. Thus, the connection is kept extremely simple.

clearly arranged and easy to operate by pressing a button, the measured values are shown on the display for better control and use of the solar system. The display is backlit (switchable) and very easy to read even from greater distances and in all lighting conditions.

Matching the VOTRONIC module system, the LCD Solar Computer S is designed as a panel version and fits in with the other display modules both optically and mechanically (uniform height 85 mm). Small front panel dimensions and the particularly low installation depth of only 22 mm allow installation in almost any location. If the device is not to be installed in a recessed position, an appropriate surface-mounting housing is available in our range of accessories. The connection to the solar controller is made ready to plug in by means of the supplied 5 m long connection cable, which can be extended by a further 5 m via an extension.

Details
Microprocessor-controlled, the following values are measured, calculated and displayed

• Current solar power 0 - 999 W (watts)
• Current solar current 0 - 60.0 A (Ampere)
• Geographical and weather influences show up immediately and unmistakably. This also applies to solar orientation, partial shading or soiling of the solar modules.
• Current solar battery voltage 7 - 32,0 V (Volt)
• Allows conclusions to be drawn about the battery status (flashing warning display indicates under- or overvoltage of the battery)
• Charged solar capacity 0 - 9999 Ah (ampere hours)
• Charged solar energy 0 - 9999 kWh (kilowatt hours)
• The energy generated by the solar modules (Wh and kWh) and the capacity charged into the battery (Ah) are measured, added up and displayed, even over days and weeks. The display values can be individually reset to "zero" at any time for your own statistical purposes
