WATA Standard - Sources of Electricity;Energy

5. SOURCES OF ELECTRICITY/ENERGY
The WATA-Standard can function with a variety of power options.
USING THE POWER GRID
To use the device with a power grid or an alternate current generator, simply plug
in the power supply provided.
USING DIRECT SOLAR POWER
For use with direct solar power, plug the WATA-Standard device directly to a solar
electric panel using the crocodile clips provided. The solar panel should deliver
12 V DC, its size depending on the amount of solar radiation at the point of use.
Example: With 1.2 kWh/m2/h hourly radiation (Ouagadougou region (12.4°N,
-1.5°E) at midday in May), a solar electric panel with a peak capacity of at least
70 Wp is needed for production with the WATA-Standard.
USING A SOLAR MODULE
For use with a solar module: Since the energy generated by a solar electric panel
varies depending on the amount of sunshine, it is strongly recommended to use
a solar module (see diagram) whose regulator will supply constant energy to the
WATA-Standard and protect your battery, ensuring that the sodium hypochlorite
solution is produced in the necessary conditions. The size of the solar panel
always depends on the amount of solar radiation at the point of use. The battery
should function with 12 V DC.
