I wanted to follow up with you on the version four, 24
volt SolCool that heats and cools. The primary
applications of the all DC SolCool will be zoned
residential and commercial, equipment rooms, mobile
vehicle and roll around portable. Production units will
be available early April 2007.
The version four SolCool has two DC compressors, (one DC
compressor will be a heat pump) with on board batteries
that will last up to 24 hours between charge cycles. The
version four is a 1.5 ton package unit that has a three
speed blower and is operated by temperature activated
remote control. A two gallon, on board condensate
management tank will temporarily hold unit condensation
with the ability to pump the condensate to a detached
reservoir, drain or an Aquacell bottled water cooler
system for filtered drinking water.
The SolCool footprint is 24”x 24” at the base and 48”
vertical. Vertical height can be reduced to 36” if the
battery bank is remotely located. Weight with standard
on board battery back up is approximately 200 pounds.
The maximum draw at full engagement is less than 500
watts.
The version four SolCool is most efficient when wired
for 24 volt direct current. It can also be direct wired
for US or EU grid power. The on board smart charger will
keep the SolCool batteries float charged from any power
source.
Technical specifications, pricing and testing lab
certifications will be available in March 2007.
