With remote monitoring also comes the need for an autonomous, efficient power supply to ensure the continuous operation of sensors, data loggers, and telemetry equipment. Systems installed at or near existing infrastructure can receive power from the electrical grid. However, fixed power supplies are not available in many applications, so alternative means are required. In […]
Due to prolonged submersion, corrosion, UV exposure, or physical damage, a CB-Series buoy solar tower may need to be manually tested to confirm proper functionality. This testing process applies to all CB-Series buoy solar towers from the CB-150 up to the CB-1250. If a panel or entire tower is found to be faulty, contact NexSens […]
In the event of insufficient or unstable battery voltage from an SP-series solar power pack, check the output voltage by measuring directly on the UW-6 plug. Test the pack both in and out of direct sunlight to fully assess the functionality of the solar panel. Use a DC voltmeter or multimeter set to measure at […]
Solar regulator replacements do not follow a regular maintenance schedule. Regulator failures are rare and normally only necessary when a system demonstrates improper charging behavior: Weak or no charging response on unloaded battery with clean panel in direct sunlight. Excessively high charging voltages on the battery (significantly greater than 15V). Remove the Old Solar Regulator […]
