Connecting Solar Panels Parallel
solar system powering .65hp Airconditioner?
0.65HP LG Aircon model LA060R power input=535 watt
5 solar panel each connected in parallel 18v/8A is this enough?
charge controller of 30Amps
8 hours of daylight at 18v/40Ah
8 pcs 100Ah battery bank = 800Ah
what should be my minimum power inverter rating (watts)
do i need a modified sinewave or pure sinewave power inverter
is the system enough to power the aircon
1. solar system charging the battery and running the aircon in 7hrs
2. using battery and inverter in 8hrs
3. will the battery be charged enough.
535W x 7 hours = 3745 watt hours (or 3.745kWh) a day
3745wh / 6 sun hours (amount of time total the panels will output their full rated potential. 6 is possible in the middle of summer depending on where you are) = 624W / .67 (system losses) = 931 Watts of panels needed. five 200W panels would do it.
3745wh / .9 (inverter inefficiencies) x 2 (never use more than half the power in a battery bank) / 24V battery bank = 346 amp hour 24V battery bank. eight 100ah 12V batteries would do it, 2 in series to make 24V, 4 parallel strings of them for 400aH.
931W / 24V = 38.79A from solar array x 1.25 safety factor = 50A minimum solar charge controller
535W air conditioner, but what is the surge when it turns on? That is the number you need to make sure your inverter can handle.
