This DC-powered air conditioner is designed for outdoor cabinets in off-grid and hybrid solar installations. The unit operates natively on 24V or 48V DC battery buses, with an auto-sensing power module that accepts input from 18V to 60V DC without manual configuration. The variable-speed DC compressor delivers 1600W of cooling at 35°C ambient while drawing a maximum of 28A at 48V.

The controller features an ultra-low standby mode consuming 4.5W, making it suitable for solar-powered sites with limited battery capacity. A built-in MPPT communication interface allows coordination with charge controllers to prioritize cooling during peak solar generation. The system includes a soft-start circuit that limits in-rush current to 1.5x nominal, preventing voltage sag on the DC bus during compressor startup.

01
DC Compressor & Inverter
Variable-speed rotary compressor with integrated DC-AC inverter. Operates from 20Hz to 80Hz with efficiency >92% across the full speed range. Includes over-current and thermal protection.
02
Auto-Sensing Power Module
Accepts 18–60V DC input. Automatically detects voltage and configures internal parameters. Built-in reverse polarity protection and transient suppression (IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4).
03
MPPT Communication Interface
CAN bus interface for coordination with solar charge controllers. Receives PV power availability signals and adjusts cooling capacity to match available solar energy, reducing battery drain.
04
Ultra-Low Standby Mode
When cabinet temperature is within setpoint, the unit enters standby consuming 4.5W. The controller wakes periodically to sample temperature and resumes cooling as needed.

S
Solar-Powered Telecom - Remote BTS and microwave relay sites where grid power is unavailable. The DC input eliminates the need for AC inverters, improving overall system efficiency.
V
Electric Vehicle Charging - Cabinets housing DC fast-charging electronics. The unit operates directly from the station's DC bus, reducing conversion losses.
O
Off-Grid Monitoring - Environmental monitoring stations in remote locations. Ultra-low standby power extends battery life during periods of low solar irradiance.

Q: Can this unit operate directly from solar panels?
A battery bank is required to buffer voltage fluctuations. The unit's auto-sensing input accepts 18–60V DC, so it can connect directly to a 24V or 48V battery bus. A charge controller is recommended between panels and batteries.
Q: How does the MPPT communication interface work?
The CAN bus interface receives PV power availability signals from compatible charge controllers. The unit adjusts compressor speed to match available solar power, preserving battery capacity for other loads.
Q: What is the standby power consumption?
The unit consumes 4.5W in standby mode. The controller wakes every 30 seconds to sample cabinet temperature. When cooling is required, the compressor starts with a soft-start sequence.
Q: Is the unit compatible with 24V and 48V systems?
Yes. The auto-sensing power module detects input voltage and configures internal parameters automatically. No manual switching is required. The unit operates across the full 18–60V range.
Q: What protections are included?
Reverse polarity protection, over-voltage cutoff (62V), under-voltage cutoff (16V), compressor overcurrent, over-temperature, and high-pressure switch (3.8 MPa). All protection thresholds are user-configurable.
Q: Can multiple units be connected in parallel?
Up to 10 units can be networked via CAN bus with coordinated load-sharing. The system includes staggered startup to prevent in-rush current spikes on the DC bus.
