The SCB-A is a solar-powered LED lamp: during the day, the SCB-A battery is recharged through solar energy via four photovoltaic panels. The capacity of the batteries and the characteristics of the solar panels ensure that the SCB-A can operate efficiently even in conditions of low irradiation for long periods.
The main parts of which the SCB-A is composed are:
- Main body which consists of an aeronautical aluminum alloy structure with frangibility points;
- Transparent polycarbonate dome, which protects the LEDs and the antenna;
- Electronics, consisting of:
- Printed circuit that controls the parameters of the lights;
- The module for RF data communication between the various lights and the external control unit;
- 2V lead acid battery with AGM technology;
- Four 14V and 5W solar panels (with irradiation of 1000W / sqm).
- External charging connector;
- Manual on / off switch for maintenance activities.
- Reset button, for maintenance activities
- Led for battery status indication
- Led to indicate data transmission in progress
- Antenna for data communication to / from the central unit
- Device height 34 cm
