CALCULATING SOLAR REQUIREMENTS
1. Estimate the gate trac measured in open/close cycles per TABLE 25-1.
2. Estimate the amount of sunlight
available per the Solar Map (right).
3. Use the solar wattage calculator found
on the HySecurity website at https://
www.hysecurity.com/operators-
accessories/solar/ to determine
battery and solar panel size needed
to serve the installation in question.
SECTION 10: APPENDIX
10.1 CALCULATING SOLAR REQUIREMENTS
NOTICE
’ TABLE 25-1 should be used as only a guide. Alternative gate operator configurations may
reduce or increase the daily power usage.
’ For dual gate operators, double the amount of required solar wattage.
’ If a standard electrical outlet is not available for trickle charging, a licensed electrician will be
required for proper electrical hookup.
IMPORTANT!
Maximum regulator output is 1.5A. If installation requires larger than a 20W solar
panel – an o-board regulator should be used and connected directly to the battery.
