Photovoltaic Cells

Photovoltaic Cells

•    It uses a commercially available solar panel made from high efficiency cells.
•    A solarimeter on the frame measures incident radiation.
•    The equipment also includes a second lower rated battery.
•    A control module contains the charge controller.
•    The panel recharges a choice of two batteries through a charge controller.
•    The frame holds a high performance deep cycling battery in a storage box.
•    The control module has digital displays and shows the panel and battery storage performance.
•    It has indicators to show when the charge controller is in float mode and load cut mode.
•    The charge controller recharges the battery at the correct rate of charge without damage to the battery.
•    The solar panel is on a wheeled, lightweight frame that allows adjustment of panel angle, relative to the sun.
•    This allows students to examine the charge and discharge cycle of the system in a typical laboratory session.
•    A variable resistive load to show battery performance.
•    An inverter to show practical conversion to AC voltages.
•    Four switchable lamps to show a practical application.
