4. Konfigurazioa eta instalazioa

4.1 Mounting the Solar Modules

The flexible solar modules are designed for surface mounting. They can be simply glued directly to the vehicle roof or, if the surface is uneven, to separately available substructures like aluminum dibond panels. The supplied adhesive ensures optimal grip on both GRP (fiberglass reinforced plastic) and aluminum surfaces. Ensure the mounting surface is clean, dry, and free of grease before applying the adhesive.

4.2 Sistema kableatzea

Connect the solar modules to the Votronic MPP 250 Duo Digital Solar Charge Regulator using the provided MC4 connectors and solar cables. The charge controller then connects to your RV's onboard battery and starter battery. Ensure all connections are secure and correctly polarized. Use the cable grommet for a watertight entry point into the vehicle.

4.3 EBL Connection (Optional)

The included EBL connection cable allows for convenient integration with your RV's Schaudt Electric Block (EBL). This enables the display panel built into the power block to show solar system data. Refer to your EBL manual for specific connection details.

5. Funtzionamendua

5.1 Charge Controller Functionality

The Votronic MPP 250 Duo Digital charge controller efficiently manages the power from your solar panels to charge both your onboard battery and the starter battery. It features an AES (Automatic Energy Selector) exchange output, which can automatically switch refrigerators (e.g., Electrolux/Dometic) from gas to 12V operation when there is sufficient excess solar energy.

5.2 LCD Solar Computer

The Votronic LCD Solar Computer comes with a 5-meter connection cable, allowing you to place the controller near the battery while monitoring all parameters remotely. This display provides real-time information on solar power generation, battery charge status, and other system metrics.

6. Mantentzea

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your solar system.

• Eguzki-panelak garbitzea: Periodically clean the surface of the solar panels with a soft cloth and mild, non-abrasive cleaner to remove dirt, dust, and debris. A clean panel ensures maximum sunlight absorption.
• Konexioak egiaztatzea: Urtero ikuskatu konexio elektriko guztiak estutasuna eta korrosioa egiaztatzeko. Konexio solteek edo korrosioek energia galtzea edo segurtasun arriskuak sor ditzakete.
• Bateria osasuna: Monitor your RV batteries regularly. Ensure they are properly charged and maintained according to their manufacturer's guidelines.
• Ikus-ikuskapena: Routinely check the solar modules and mounting system for any signs of damage, wear, or loosening.

7. Arazoak

Ohiko arazoak eta irtenbideak

• Potentzia baxuko irteera: Check for shading on the solar panels. Ensure panels are clean. Verify all connections are secure. Check the charge controller display for error codes.
• Kargarik ez: Confirm that the solar panels are receiving sunlight. Check the fuse on the battery cable. Ensure the charge controller is powered on and correctly connected to both panels and batteries.
• Bistaratzeko arazoak: If the LCD Solar Computer is not displaying information, check its connection cable to the charge controller.
