 RENEWABLE ENERGY

Using our natural resources today without

compromising their availability in the future

is a major challenge faced by all of us.

And switching to renewable sources of energy

is one way whereby we can accomplish that

goal.

Huge quantities of solar energy reach us

continuously. If we are able to tap into even

if a small portion of that source of energy,

we can generate major savings both in energy

and the cost of energy supply, in addition

to contributing for a reduction in CO2

emissions into the atmosphere.

The GIRA SOL solar ensemble is our response

to that challenge.

It is powered by solar energy and requires

no electricity supply, and thereby it allows

for major savings in building electric

infrastructure.

Solar lighting system

Sun energy

The SUN FLOWER is powered exclusively with energy supplied

by the SUN, which is a clean and renewable energy source.

After penetrating the atmosphere, solar radiation hitting

the Earth consists of three components:

Direct radiation this is radiation that reaches

the surface of the Earth directly

Diffuse radiation this is radiation that is

deflected into various directions by atmospheric

gases

Reflected radiation this is radiation reflected

by the ground and surrounding bodies

The remaining radiation is absorbed or is reflected

beyond the atmosphere by atmospheric gases

Energy management
The GIRA SOL solar lamp employs photovoltaic technology
to generate energy.
Throughout the day, the photovoltaic panels transform
the solar energy that they absorb into electric energy.
The electric energy generated by the photovoltaic panel
is then stored in batteries for consumption during
the night.
The lamp features a control panel to manage its battery
charging and discharging as a means of prolonging its
useful life, and allowing for programming of the lamps
operational mode and the monitoring of the systems
energy balance. CONTROLADOR

The SUNFLOWER solar ensemble is capable of adjusting

BATERIA
t h e s t r e n g t h o f t h e l i g h t emitted by the lamp through
pre-programming, and the level of lighting can be
automatically adjusted as a function of the time of INVERSOR

year and the particular requirements of each location.

Photovoltaic panel
Energy-generating module fitted with high-efficiency and
high-reliability monocrystalline or polycrystalline cells.
On installation, and in order to maximise solar radiation
capturing, the panels orientation must be set to coincide
with the locations geographical south.
The panels inclination is set as a function of the latitude
of the location where the system is going to be installed.
The photovoltaic panel can rotate a full 360.

Transformer
High-yield device directly connected to the battery,
which can be sized according to the systems requirements.
It coverts 12V or 24V continuous voltage into 230V and
50HZ-fequence, sinusoidal, alternate voltage. Any type
of alternate voltage bulb can be fitted to the lamp.

Control
Battery charge and discharge control device allowing
for proper management of the battery charge, thereby
prolonging its useful life. The control panel incorporates
the lamps ON/OFF switch as a function of the beginning
and end of nighttime, as well as providing for pre-
defined programming of the number of hours of operation

Column
The SUNFLOWER solar lamp is available in two different
types of columns: a conical metal column and a cylindrical
metal column of constant diameter. Both models are in hot-
immersion galvanised steel, and are EN40-conformant and
display the CE label.
The column is painted and fixed to the ground with a root
plate and hot galvanised leads.

Battery
The battery stores energy during the day for nighttime
utilisation. The batterys capacity can be sized according
to the required degree of autonomy. It is a component
featuring specific solar photovoltaic system characteristics,
with low-rate auto-discharge.
The battery can be installed in a high-visibility cupboard
or in its own case installed inside a concrete box of
appropriate size.
 OPTIONS
Tracker
Rotary system incorporating photovoltaic panels rotating with the Suns apparent movement. The quantity of energy
generated by the photovoltaic panels can be greatly increased by rotating the panels on an on-going basis, in order
to set them at the most favourable position for solar energy capture, at all times.

Telemanagement
Remote operation, flow-rate setting, and system monitoring control.

Fitting
The system can incorporate any type of fitting up to 70W from the Schrder range.

LUMINAIRE LAMPS - REFLECTORES

The GIRA SOL solar power lighting can be fitted TYPE NEOS 1
with a wide variety of luminaires available from Reflector 1639 1659 1754
t h e S chrder range, namely the Maya, Saphir, MC, Furyo,
High pressure
etc. The standard version is supplied with a NEOS 1 sodium 70 W
floodlight.
NEOS 1 is an IP66 floodlight, and consists of a body metal halide with
70 W 70 W 70 W
ceramic arc tube
and cover in die-casted aluminium. The body contains
a removable accessory-fitting fixture and a reflector
(available in several models) in chemically polished,
anodised aluminium.
The tempered-glass diffuser is sealed tight against
the body with a silicone joint.
When assembling the endemble at a location, a fork
fitted with a scale disk allows for setting the floodlight
at the desired inclination.
The NEOS is painted in polyester paint applied with
an electrostatic system.
Standard Colour: AKZO 900 sandy grey.
