What about large stacks of telecom style rectifiers with the output tuned to the desired absorb voltage? Very scalable but I'm not sure how the costs would compare... On Thu, Dec 2, 2021 at 1:46 PM Michael Morningstar wrote: > I’m currently building a similar sized system (a bit larger), so I k

I’m currently building a similar sized system (a bit larger), so I know what the costs are for such scale. Seems like 6-9 SolArks or XWpros for dedicated closed loop charging only wouldn’t be unreasonable? If an equally sized battery charger exists it would be a monstrosity! > On Dec 2, 2021

Hi all Sorry I guess I didn’t explain the clients wants well enough 1. 90-100kwh+ 48 vdc lithium battery 2. 208 3 phase AC generator powering 48v nominal battery chargers. 208-3phase as that is the house/EE design voltage. 3. AC generator because it’s back up if the inverters fail, so no DC gen

Maybe a DC output generator, the Wildcat Maverick charges a 48v battery bank directly and has it’s own controls, independent from the inverter. https://wildcatpowergen.com/pages/maverick Michael D Nelson MD Electric & Solar, Inc. 707-684-0064 mobile 707-884-1862 office www.mdelectricsolar.com ww

Hi Jay, Is the plan to feed DC current (from generator and grid) into the batteries and keep the inverters as power source for loads? On Thu, Dec 2, 2021 at 6:30 AM Darryl Thayer wrote: > Jay I am confused as usual, what are the loads? AC or DC? How are you > charging the battery from the gen

Jay I am confused as usual, what are the loads? AC or DC? How are you charging the battery from the generator or how is the battery powering the loads? What is the desired current or the size of the generator? sorry if this I dumb question On Wed, Dec 1, 2021 at 2:23 PM Jay wrote: > I got a
