Solar Friendly
The Patriot system design and the accessories recommended are all Solar Friendly meaning that
they require the least amount of energy possible to perform the job they were designed to do. The
solar option allows you to install the gate operator in remote areas or in applications where you prefer
to be solar charged. Solar charging provides additional isolation from lightning that might damage the
unit via the AC power needed for the transformer.
BATTERY REQUIRED FOR OPERATION (Battery not included)
Recommended battery type:
Battery 12-volt, Group U-1; sealed (maintenance free); 30 amp hour minimum.
Using a smaller amp hour battery may cause damage to the charging system.
The wiring harness has two 1/4” ring terminals to connect to battery posts.
CAUTION: Do not install wet cell battery into control box; this type of battery
usually has removable caps used for service and will vent into control box.
The battery is charged using the 120V AC Powered Transformer (PN #520004) OR the Patriot Solar
Panel kit (PN 520025). Typically only one panel will be required. For information on what you can
expect from a solar charged system see the solar charging section of this manual. Accessories that
are added to your gate operator must be solar friendly accessories.
