Description
Pre-Wired Solar Backplate Assembly with SunSaver-10 Controller & Eaton C10 DC Breakers
Overview
This pre-engineered backplate consolidates core DC components for a small off-grid solar system into a single, rugged, and neatly wired assembly. It features a Morningstar SunSaver-10 PWM charge controller, three Eaton C10 DC miniature breakers for circuit protection, and a clearly labeled terminal block for fast, error-resistant field connections. Color-coded leads with crimped ring terminals simplify tie-in to your battery, module(s), and load. Ideal for compact 12 V DC systems powering remote telemetry, data loggers, lighting, or low-draw industrial loads.
Key Features
- Factory-wired & labeled: Clean routing, color-coded leads (red = +, black = −), and ring terminals for quick install.
- SunSaver-10 PWM controller: Proven reliability for up to 10 A charge current on 12 V battery systems.
- Three Eaton C10 DC breakers: Dedicated protection for PV input, battery, and load circuits.
- Serviceable terminal block: Clear “SOLAR / BATTERY / LOAD” positions for tidy, repeatable hookups.
- Compact metal backplate: Rigid mounting surface for enclosures, kiosks, or panelboards.
- Field-ready: Designed to minimize wiring errors and speed commissioning in the field.
Applications
- Remote sensors, RTU/SCADA nodes, telemetry & communications
- Industrial kiosks, signage, lighting, security, and access control
- Marine, mobile, and trailer-mounted low-power systems
- Environmental monitoring and wildlife cameras
Industries & Use Cases
- Utilities & Oil/Gas (RTU, cathodic protection, valve sites)
- Transportation & Wayside (signage, cabinets, call boxes)
- Water/Wastewater (remote lift stations, telemetry)
- Municipal & Parks (trail lighting, counters, kiosks)
- Security/IoT (gate control, cameras, sensors)
