Cortem - SOLAREX Autonomous Photovoltaic System for Hazardous Areas
Cortem SolarEx is an autonomous photovoltaic power system designed for use in hazardous areas (ATEX / IECEx). It provides a reliable off-grid energy solution for locations where connection to the electrical grid is not available or not feasible.
SolarEx is primarily designed for Ex lighting applications using StreetEx luminaires, enabling fully autonomous operation without the need for external electrical infrastructure.
Key Features
- Autonomous photovoltaic power system for hazardous areas
- Designed for off-grid energy supply applications
- Integrated photovoltaic generation, energy storage, and control system
- MPPT charge controller for optimized energy management
- Fully automatic operation without maintenance requirements
- Robust industrial design for long-term operation in harsh environments
System Principle
The SolarEx system operates as a fully autonomous energy solution:
- Solar panels generate electrical energy from sunlight
- Energy is stored in a battery system
- MPPT controller manages and optimizes charging
- Electrical energy is supplied directly to the connected load
The system operates completely automatically without external power supply.
Advantages
- Full energy independence (off-grid solution)
- Elimination of cable infrastructure requirements
- Maintenance-free and fully automatic operation
- High operational safety in hazardous areas
- Optimized energy management via MPPT technology
- Long-term operation in isolated environments
- Reliable performance under industrial conditions
