Irrigation Controller
Power System
SolarKing’s solar-powered irrigation controller power system is designed to provide a reliable power-source for
irrigation controllers. Often there’s an electrical meter that is providing power for just the irrigation controller and
there’s typically a meter ‘rental’ fee of $25 - $35 per month in addition to the electricity cost. These costs add up
year-after-year with no end in sight! SolarKing’s system is protected by US Patent 8096439.
System Components
- Solar-module – 45-watt (typical)
- Solar-module is tilt-mounted facing south on a pole
- Morningstar Sunsaver 6L system controller
- 12VDC to 24VAC converter (irrigation controllers typically operate off of 24VAC power)
- Battery – 55AH sealed-lead-acid battery (typical)
- Battery typically placed at grade or below ground in SolarKing’s patented flood-proof underground battery container
