Battery Bank Inverter Calculator
Size type tripping setting of main mccb.
Battery bank inverter calculator. Calculate size of inverter for following electrical load calculate size of battery bank and decide connection of battery. Size of battery bank in amp hr. Here is a quick guide on how to use the calculator. You may want to consider 600 800 amp hours of capacity based on this example depending on your budget and other factors.
Welcome to the trojan battery renewable energy sizing calculator. I have seen the excel sheet you have prepared for design of solar panel inverter and battery bank and it is awesome. In this case a 12v 200 ah battery pack could withstand a 10 amp draw and last only 10hrs but the 24v 200 ah battery bank lasts 21hr 41 min. Select type of connection of batteries in battery bank.
Using the inverter calculator indicates 14 35 amps dc load and then running the sizing calculator suggests that i need battery capacity of 306 ah 20 hrs. Please remember that this calculator works out the minimum battery bank size for a given power consumption. The quick guide to using the solar battery bank calculator for defining the number of solar batteries connected in series or parallel. Select the battery bank voltage v the solar battery bank voltage is the system voltage you have selected for.
This calculator is a tool to help you determine the model and quantity of trojan batteries needed for your renewable energy or backup power system. Calculate size of battery bank and inverter. These are colored in yellow. The more amps you pull out of a battery bank the less ah capacity that battery bank is which is why most batteries have several different ah ratings based off the amp draw the battery is subjected to.
When using an inverter the current draw on the battery side can be extremely high so you may need a battery bank that is larger than the minimum. Additional further load expansion af 20 efficiency of inverter. I want to maintain the 70 c temperature of 50 liters approx water using 500 w dc heater for 24 7. However when the 2 105 20 hrs batteries in parallel are used and then put on charge after use the batteries typically register 50 charged.
The calculator recommends batteries based on your inputs and the results are ranked according to cycle life performance. Here my application is little different on solar water heater. Select rating of each battery in battery bank. 1 no of 200w 230v 0 8 p f computer.
Think of this as the minimum battery bank size based on your typical usage. Battery banks are typically wired for either 12 volts 24 volts or 48 volts depending on the size of the system. The calculator may take a moment to load use this tool to calculate the accurate quantity of phi batteries relative to your loads and balance of system equipment. Average run cycle is 10 hours.
For example 1200w drawn at 240v is only 5a whereas at 12v this current increases to 100a. This ms excel spreadsheet calculates the following parameters. Inverter battery detail.
