Solar Panels
Solar panel Recommendations and maintenance guide:

  • The installation of Solar Panels is critical to the performance of a Letron Solar Powered Gate Openers.
  • Solar Panels should be installed at least 180cm above the ground.
  • Solar panels should be angled at approximately 45 degrees.
  • They should be facing North to North-West.
  • They must be clear of trees,power lines and any buildings that can cause shadows on the panel.
  • Solar Panels for best performance should be exposed to 5-6 hours of sunlight each day. The panels still produce power even on cloudy days.
  • Solar Panels should be kept clean,free of dust and bird droppings. Therefore we recommended regular maintenance of the solar panel by cleaning off the dust or debris.

By spending a few minutes looking for the best place for the panel,is time well spent.
