PR6 is a
self-contained encapsulated low power consuming shunt regulator
for easy fitting to solar panels junction boxes without the need
for any additional enclosures.

- PR6 is potted in clear silicon inside the back of the solar
panel junction box suitable for the marine environment.
- PR6 provides the field technician with steady green LED indication
when panel is shunting (battery full).
- PR6 fits inside junction box of Solar panels from 20 to 80
watts.
- Green LED flashes when panel is charging battery to provide
field technician with confirmation of system status.
- Standard shunt voltage set to 14.6 @ 20 degrees Centigrade
with re-connection at 13.5 volts. Other settings possible to
order.
- All tails provided with identification and crimp connectors
fitted.
- Once fitted in the junction box, solar panel tails may be directly
connected to battery without the need for any other protection
or interconnection.
- PR6 is ideal for single panel beacon or pile applications where
interconnection access is limited or denied to unauthorised personnel.
- Where buoy applications requiring 2 solar panels or more the
PR8 or PR12 regulators are recommended (see over and following).
- Where LCD indication of system status is required the PR30
is recommended.
- PR6 is fitted as standard to our range of self contained Stainless
Steel PS20/100 and upwards to create an efficient well engineered
package for site with difficult access while still providing
max. information to the field technician.

PR8 is
panel mounted pulse width regulator with built-in indicators and
terminal block.

PR8 shown here in weatherproof enclosure
- PR8 fits neatly inside its own weatherproof enclosure or can
be combined with Station monitoring cubicle.
- Self contained Pulse Width regulator with built in 10 amp fuse
load protection which is easily exchanged or removed for maintenance
checks.
- Built-in green LED lights to provide easy indication that solar
energy is present. Light flashes to indicate PR8 is charging.
- Built in multicolour LED indicates state of charge by colour
without need of additional meters.
- When fitted inside clear covered enclosure state of system
can be monitored visually with out opening system to the marine
environment.
- Optional standard PR8 (only) IP67 enclosure measures 125 x
175 x 75 mm deep with 4mm fixing hole centres of 110 x 160mm.
- Option for automatic disconnection of load when battery reaches
a constant 11.1 volts to protect battery from severe damage
by deep discharge.
- Option for automatic reconnection of load when solar panel
restores battery above 12.6 volts.
- PR8 designed to operate between -25 degree and + 50 degrees
centigrade makes the unit very versatile in different environmental
conditions.
- Automatic temperature compensation of 3 milli volts / K/cell
provides best charge voltage for the battery.
- Can be used on nominal 12 or 24 volt system without need for
separate unit. When used on 24 volt system voltage indications
should be doubled.
