Solar Power Supply

SPS-6-5

The SSI SPS-6-5 Solar Power Supply is the 5VDC output variant of our SPS-6 dual-panel solar power system. It is designed for remote telemetry and metering installations where a 5VDC supply is required and 120VAC line power is unavailable or where a renewable power source is preferred. Like all SPS-6 variants, it includes two 30W solar panels, mounting bracket, charge controller, interface circuitry, battery, NEMA 4X enclosure, and all internal chassis hardware — fully pre-wired for rapid deployment.

The SPS-6-5’s 50Ah battery provides approximately two weeks of holdover capacity at a 20mA load with no additional sunlight. All components except the solar panels mount inside a 16″ x 12″ x 6″ NEMA 4X high-impact ABS enclosure, and installation is as simple as mounting the enclosure and panels on the supplied bracket and making the load connections.

Product Highlights

The SPS-6-5’s dual-panel design delivers twice the solar charging capacity of the single-panel SPS-2, making it well suited for higher-power loads, less favorable solar environments, or installations requiring greater energy reserve. The 50Ah battery — significantly larger than the SPS-2’s 15Ah — extends holdover capability at higher current draw.

The 5VDC output variant is appropriate for devices requiring a regulated 5V supply at up to 1A. Battery recharge time is approximately 6 hours under good solar conditions.

Features

The SSI SPS-6-5 is the 5VDC variant of SSI's dual-panel solar power supply, featuring a 50Ah battery and two-week holdover capacity in a NEMA 4X enclosure.
  • 5VDC regulated output — 1A maximum output current for devices requiring a 5V supply.
  • Dual 30W solar panel input — two panels provide up to 500mA combined charge current for higher-load or lower-sunlight conditions.
  • 50Ah battery with ~two-week holdover — sustains a 20mA load for approximately two weeks with no additional sunlight.
  • Complete turn-key solution — includes two solar panels, bracket, charge controller, interface circuitry, battery, enclosure, and hardware.
  • Pre-wired NEMA 4X ABS enclosure — 16" x 12" x 6" raintight and dustproof housing with all internal components pre-installed.
  • ~6-hour battery recharge time — rapid recharge under good solar conditions minimizes holdover dependency.
  • Temperature range -38°C to +70°C — rated for demanding outdoor environments.
