An off-grid, battery-powered, solar-charged highmast floodlighting solution has been installed in a village in the Madibeng Local Municipality jurisdiction. The floodlighting solution answers the community’s need for illumination at night and improve security in the area.
BEKA Schreder’s SOLARFLOOD was designed and is manufactured in South Africa. It offers a high performing, robust option for off-grid solar lighting requirements in outdoor open areas.
The SOLARFLOOD, combined with the OMNISTAR-MINI luminaire, provides a reliable lighting solution with a high ingress protection level (IP 66) that withstands high ambient temperatures. The OMNISTAR-MINI range is a sustainable off-grid performer with a superior lumen/watt ratio.
High-performing optics allow for mounting of up to 20 m, providing high-quality light where it is needed.
The photovoltaic energy conversion uses highly efficient monocrystalline solar modules. This is coupled to lithium batteries which are charged by a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) charging system. The equipment provides a long-lasting solution to illuminating challenging environmental conditions.
Further advantages of the SOLARFLOOD include:
- Specifically engineered for geographical locations in Africa
- Designed to operate reliably with a dimming profile at an optimum light output for an 11-hour period
- It has sufficient autonomy to cater for up to two continuous overcast or rainy days, to continue its reliable night operation
- Specific dimming profiles for maximum output to suit the application (right light at the right time)
- Long life lithium battery technology
- Warranty up to 5 years (Terms and conditions apply)
BEKA Schréder locally develops and manufactures sustainable LED lighting products, designed and suitable for local conditions.
