Ex Solar Panel SPA-280

Now superseded by the SPB range.

Please refer to the official Statement of Obsolescence PDF for replacement details.

The SPA-280 Photo Voltaic Solar Panel is an ATEX & IECEx Ex ec mc certified product for Zone 2 gas hazardous area applications. The cells of the panel are encapsulated between a tempered glass cover and an EVA pottant, to provide maximum protection in the most extreme environmental conditions.

Typical applications for this new energy & cost saving concept are; to monitor remote pipelines and unmanned offshore oil & gas installations where the location and the proximity of a hazardous area, deems conventional power sources and mains power to be less economical.

Complimented by other JCE products such as: Ex e hazardous area batteries and Ex d control enclosures, the SPA-280 can be supplied as part of a complete control and monitoring system. Combined with a compatible inverter housed in our Ex ec enclosures, it is suitable for AC applications.
