Solar Power Supply

SPS-2

The SSI SPS-2 Solar Power Supply is a complete, turn-key 12VDC solar power solution for remote metering and telemetry installations where 120VAC line power is unavailable or where powering from a renewable source is preferred. It includes everything needed for implementation — solar panel, mounting bracket, charge controller, interface circuitry, battery, NEMA 4X enclosure, and all internal chassis and mounting hardware — pre-wired and ready to deploy.

A full battery charge provides approximately two weeks of holdover capacity at a 10mA load with no additional sunlight, making the SPS-2 reliable through extended periods of poor solar irradiance. All components except the solar panel mount inside a 12″ x 10″ x 6″ NEMA 4X high-impact ABS enclosure. Installation consists of mounting the enclosure and solar panel on the supplied bracket and making the solar panel and load connections to the interface circuit board.

Product Highlights

The SPS-2 is the most common SSI solar power supply pairing for the PRL-1600C and PRL-2SC wireless pulse link systems, providing the 12VDC supply needed to power remote transmitter units in off-grid locations. Its pre-wired, all-in-one packaging eliminates the need to source components separately and ensures a reliable, weatherproof installation every time.

Optional 5VDC output (SPS-2-5) and 15VDC output (SPS-2-15) variants are available for applications requiring non-standard supply voltages. Battery recharge time is approximately 6 hours under good solar conditions.

Features

The SSI SPS-2 is a 20W turn-key 12VDC solar power supply with a 15Ah battery and ~two-week holdover, pre-wired in a NEMA 4X enclosure for remote metering installations.
  • Complete turn-key solution — includes solar panel, bracket, charge controller, interface circuitry, battery, enclosure, and hardware; nothing else to source.
  • 20W solar panel input — provides up to 500mA charge current under good solar conditions.
  • 15Ah battery with ~two-week holdover — sustains a 10mA load for approximately two weeks with no additional sunlight.
  • 12VDC regulated output — compatible with PRL-1600C (PRT-16CS), PRL-2SC, and other SSI 12VDC-powered devices.
  • Pre-wired NEMA 4X ABS enclosure — 12" x 10" 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.
  • Optional 5VDC and 15VDC output variants — SPS-2-5 (5VDC/1A) and SPS-2-15 (15VDC/1A) available for non-standard applications.
