CONTENTS

Boasting nearly 3000 items, our Alternative Energy product

portfolio comprises the most energy efficient products and

technologies required in the generation, transformation,

storage, conversion and distribution phases of any design.

Our featured solutions, design resources and

product training videos are developed to help you with

the design and implementation of these systems, while

simultaneously keeping you up to date with the latest

innovations that open up new applications for alternative

energy.

There are many viable reasons for considering an

alternative energy solution to power new designs,

especially for those with ultra-low power requirements.

Lower total cost of ownership, environmental benefits,

and ease of implementation are just some of the many

benefits that alternative energy sources can bring.

A solar-powered home is probably the most economical and

practical use for an alternative energy at this point in time.

The long term savings of not having to constantly depend

on the energy grid easily outweighs the initial setup costs.

Small scale wind power generation schemes have been

used for household electricity generation in conjunction

with battery storage over many decades, especially in

remote areas. Nowadays, equipments such as wireless

Internet gateways are being powered by wind turbines,

replacing the need for a connection to the power grid.

It is easy to think of all alternative energy as giant

wind farms or hydro plants, but many alternative

energy sources can be as simple as a single solar cell

powering a remote sensor and wireless transmitter.As well as solar power, piezoelectric and thermoelectric

generators can harvest vibration and thermal energy to

generate enough electricity to power a simple circuit. Such

energy harvesting schemes have now been widely employed

in environmental and geological data sensing applications.

ENERGY HARVESTING

Energy harvesting systems are the devices that can convert solar power,thermal energy, wind power, mechanical energy and electromagnetic energyinto electrical power and save in batteries or super capacitors.

An energy harvesting system is composed of energy collection, energystorage and power management. The energy collection is responsible forcapturing the energy that is available in different forms such as solar power,and converting it into electrical power. The electrical power is stored inbatteries or super capacitors to feed other devices.[+MORE]

GRID INVERTER

A solar grid-tied inverter converts the DC output of PV modules into AC powersuitable for transmission on the power grid, often deploying reactive powerto meet new grid codes. It must always optimize the power output via MPPT(maximum power point tracking) and additionally monitor both the systemand grid connection. In practice, each solar inverter installed in solar powerplants needs to connect an array or string of PV modules to the power grid.The more efcient the inverter, the better the LCOE (Levelised Cost of Elec-tricity) generated by the system.[+MORE]

Wind turbine monitoring systems are responsible for monitoring the tower,blades, shaft, gear box, generator and overall conditions in the nacelle. Thisinvolves a variety of sensors e.g. accelerometers, rotary encoders,temperature sensors, oil/liquid level sensors, particle counter, voltage,current and humidity sensors.[+MORE]

EVAL ADXL345Z-MThe ADXL345 is a small, thin, ultralow power, 3-axis accelerometer with highresolution (13-bit) measurement at up to 16 g. Digital output data isformatted as 16-bit and is accessible through either a SPI (3- or 4-wire) or I2Cdigital interface. The ADXL345 measures the static acceleration of gravity intilt-sensing applications, as well as dynamic acceleration resulting from motion

or shock. Its high resolution (3.9 mg/LSB) enables measurement of inclinationchanges less than 1.0.

SPF 1000V Solar FusesThe SPF series has been specically designed for photovoltaic (PV) systems.This family of midget fuses (10x38mm) can safely protect PV modules andtheir conductors from reverse overcurrent conditions despite theassociated challenges of DC power. As PV systems have grown in size, sohave the corresponding voltage requirements. This increase in systemvoltage has typically been intended to minimize power loss associated withlong conductor runs. With design voltages growing upwards of 1000VDC,standard fuses simply cannot handle this power. However, the SPF series isUL Recognized to safely interrupt circuits up to this demanding voltage level.

Order code: 1818392, 1818397, 1818393, 1818403, 1818395, 1818404, 1818396

SolarLok CablesSolarLok cables are designed to meet the harsh environmental conditionstypical of photovoltaic installations. The exible, dual wall, halogen free andcross linked solar wire offers long term stability with TV UL approval. Itsoutstanding features include: high resistance against environmental conditionssuch as humidity, UV-radiation and ozone. In addition, it has excellent

resistance to abrasion and temperature extremes. The wire has a highdielectric withstanding voltage and due to its ne-stranded, tin platedcopper conductor, it is easy to handle, bend, route, and to strip.
