Solar Input Energy

Renewable Energy

Using Solar power as a renewable energy source for the power supply provides year round power as well as greater autonomy and reduced field visits.
- Diesel Input Energy
  
  Diesel Backup Energy
  
  Diesel is used as the backup power to the power supply. This provides the additional power needed, during the harshest of conditions.
- Remote Power Supply
  
  Power conversion
  
  The power supply takes each input energy source and charges the power supply battery banks.
  - Battery Bank for Power Storage
    
    Output Power Source
    
    The use of battery banks allows for immediate power to each device and the ability to tailor each power supply to specific requirements.
    - Forj Power Custom Control Board
      
      Monitor and system control
      
      Our custom control board features the ability to monitor, control and modify the system remotely using the Forjlive service.
      - Ultrasonic Sensors
        
        Output Device
        
        Forj can supply the power required for ultrasonic sensors, which provides essential meteorological data.
      - Heated Sensors
        
        Output Device
        
        The Forj power supply can provide power to heated sensors so that there are no periods of lost data.
      - Lighting Solutions
        
        Output Device
        
        Forj can provide the power required for lighting solutions such as: Meteorological and telecom obstruction lighting and a variety of other lighting requirements.
- Wind Input Energy
  
  Renewable Energy
  
  Using wind as a renewable energy source for the power supply provides greater autonomy and reduces field visits.

Further information

The Forj Power Supply has the option to operate using multiple sources of renewable power with a small diesel backup. Power is stored in battery banks which are sized to maximize the renewable energy stored when available. This allows the power supply to run on renewable energy longer, reducing the fuel consumption of the diesel backup, increasing autonomy, and reducing the site visits required for regular service.

The Forj custom control board handles the communication and monitoring for the system. This communication feature sets the Forj power supply apart from our competitors, providing the capability to remotely monitor and modify system parameters. The data from the system is stored and can be reviewed for up to a year using the Forjlive interface.

The ability to remotely monitor the system can alert the user of possible anomalies which often can be corrected remotely, reducing the requirement for costly site visits.
