Description

The Phocos CIS 05 Solar Charge Controller 12-24V 5A is a sophisticated solar charge controller family for lighting & industrial control applications. PV systems exposed to extreme weather /environmental conditions (street lights, navigation buoys, etc.) have increased risk of damage in the power electronics. In order to ensure reliable battery charge control under such conditions, Phocos developed an encapsulated charge controller (IP68) to prevent corrosion: CIS.

Besides a perfect PWM regulation with integrated temperature compensation, the controllers provide extraordinary display, programming and safety functions.The CIS series comes with three load switching mode.The temperature-compensated three-state PWM charging method (boost-equalize-float) is now adapted to sealed and vented lead-acid batteries. The low voltage disconnect function can be controlled either by SOC or by voltage. The Phocos CIS 05 Solar Charge Controller 12-24V 5A has no moving parts, switches or buttons. Settings such as battery type, deep discharge thresholds, timers and other configuration items are made quick and easy by infrared remote control.

Main features of the the Phocos CIS 05 Solar Charge Controller 12-24V 5A

  • Corrosion-proof epoxy-encapsulated PCB (IP68)
  • Compact size
  • Infrared remote control programming accessory (CU)
  • Intelligent timer functions available for lighting control
  • Four-stage battery charging (main, float, boost, equalization), temperature compensated
  • Automatic system voltage recognition (12/24V)

Phocos offers both hybrid inverters and standard off-grid inverters  to solve DC to AC conversion challenges for off-grid or unreliable electricity grid conditions; as well as top quality MPPT and PWM charge controllers.  Phocos product lines include many models with different features and sizes to fit all global applications.

Phocos’ portable, plug and play solar kits are ideal for applications like rural electrification, recreation, and emergency preparedness to name a few.  These kits are complete, safe, and simple to use for small DC applications.

Phocos is proud to offer a variety of efficient DC refrigerator/freezers, and DC lamps, for off-grid applications.  Choose Phocos when efficiency matters because every watt consumed matters.

A offgrid inverter needs a battery bank to function. Here’s how it works: your solar panels feed DC power into the batteries. Then your inverter takes that power and “inverts” it, creating AC power for your home. This works essentially like a miniature independent power grid.

An offgrid system is not connected to the electricity grid and therefore requires battery storage. The high cost of batteries and offgrid inverters means offgrid systems are much more expensive than on-grid systems and so are usually only needed in more remote areas that are far from the electricity grid.

The top five cutting-edge realistic off grid power sources.
  • Solar Roof Tiles
  • Residential Wind Turbine.
  • Geothermal or Air Source Heat Pump.
  • Microhydro Electricity.
  • Solar/Wind Hybrid System.
  • Off the grid power systems.
10 to 20 years
Typically, grid connected inverters have a lifespan ranging from 10 to 20 years. You should expect most good quality units to last 10 years minimum. Solar inverters have warranties ranging from 5 to 12 years with an increasing number of manufacturers offering pay for service warranty extension up to 20 years. 

On-grid or grid-tie means your solar system is tied to your local utility’s GRID. This is what most residential homes will use because you are covered if your solar system under or over-produces in regard to your varying energy needs. All this means for you is that your utility system acts as your battery space. If you are producing more energy with your solar panels or system than you are using, the excess energy is sent to your grid’s power company, allowing you to build credit that you can cash out with at the end of the year, in a process called net metering. Being grid-tied is beneficial because you don’t have to buy an expensive battery back-up system to store any excess energy.

Being off-grid means you are not connected in any way to your grid’s power system or utility company; you are off-grid. This is appealing because you are 100% self-sustaining your energy use. However, there are disadvantages because off-grid systems require you to purchase back-up battery which can be expensive, bulky, and not very environmentally friendly which defeats the purpose of going solar (save money and live greener).
