In a convenient, portable unit, the Apollo Solar Wireless Remote Display
monitors the PV-Battery System from anywhere by tracking power production
and consumption and then calculating the energy remaining in the battery.
The data showing the comprehensive status of the PV Array, the Controller,
and the Battery System is transmitted via WiFi from the battery energy meter
that is built into the Apollo Solar T80 and T100 charge controllers. Available
in two models, the RD100 and the RD300, the Wireless Remote shows State-of-Charge
(SOC) in Percent Full, Amp-Hours, and Bar-Graph format, an easy-to read “gas
gauge” essential for optimal performance of battery-based systems. Also
displayed are the PV current and voltage as well as the Battery charge/discharge
Amps.
The RD wired display can be up to 100 feet from the controller using
4-conductor telephone cable. The RD100 wireless display can be 100 feet
away from controller in buildings and 300 feet line-of-sight. Its built
in batteries last up to 3 months and can be recharged from 12 or 24 VDC or
115 VAC.
Optional network card allows you to stack up to 16 controllers on one battery
bank. Add a network card to each controller and connect with Cat 5
cables. One controller acts as a master and the others as slaves.
