Re: [RE-wrenches] battery reference gen start module

I find the Outback FNDC has the ability to track the state of charge using net energy into the battery and net energy out. Therefore one can use the SOC directly to start generator and charge batteries and not relay on battery voltage. I have not used the Apollo for this purpose but believe it

Re: [RE-wrenches] Hot Water Tanks

I have rather limited experience with these types of tanks but the designs I've seen have the heat exchangers hanging from the top of the tank so they don't touch the bottom. -August Luminalt Energy Corporation O: 415.564.7652 M: 415.559.1525 F: 650.244.9167 www.luminalt.com [EMAIL PROTECTE

Re: [RE-wrenches] Hot Water Tanks

Ken, Appear to be leaking from where heat exchangers contact bottom. I do not know the specific tank temps as these were not my tanks, or customers tanks. No, sidewall penetrations. What tank lining material have you worked with? And how have they been holding up? Dave -Original Message--

[RE-wrenches] Schott ASE-300's wanted

A note out to my esteemed piers. Sorry, didn't mean to offend anyone:).Anyways, since we all try to buy PV in pallet quantities for better pricing and then end up with some one'sy, two'sy left over's I thought that someone out there may have four new Schott ASE-300’s that they wouldn’t mind shippin

Re: [RE-wrenches] Hot Water Tanks

Dave and others- Where and how do these leaks occur? Stress at points of contact with bottom of copper coils? Deterioration of the EPDM over time? at what average and maximum temps? Sidewall penetrations below water level? Other issues? Thanks Ken Schaal CommonWealth Solar - Original Mess

Re: [RE-wrenches] Hot Water Tanks

We have experience with STSS tank's. Lot's of Tarm's installed around here in the past 10 years with that tank. Too many of the tanks leak after 8 to 10 years. That's why we decided to make our own tank. Dave -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of J

MessageSame experience here as Tump's. We are located in Northern Vermont, get's down to -40F. James Worden of Solectria gave us the go ahead to mount his inverters outdoors. SMA also gave us their blessing, and Fronius said that the capacitors in their inverters were the same ones used in their w

Re: [RE-wrenches] Inverter temp spec for cold regions

Here in Maine I guess we've got the stupid Caps cause they don't know enough to blow up when cold! My SMA inverter shouldn't work cause its been outside now for 3 years! & I guess that my SW4048s don't work anymore too. they lived outside since 1998.We DO have some low temps & the only thing I hav
