Telecommunication References and Applications
Reference Case: Broadband Communication Trailer Location: Germany / Europe Company: Vites GmbH Average power requirements: 300 W / 24 V (Data transmission and reception, SAT-Com and LTE, Video) Solution: Trailer based 1,5 kw UPS system with EFOY Pro 12000 Duo Autonomy: More than 17 days with 4 x M28 fuel cartridges without grid connection For a fast deployment in emergency applications you can not rely on a grid connection. The flexibility and not grid dependent in any scenario gives a huge advantage to our customers such as fire departments and national services
Reference Case: Remote Satellite Internet Communication Company: Coast Mountain Wireless Location: British Columbia, Canada Power requirements: 300 W / 48 V (Data transmission and reception, cooling and heating) Solution: EFOY Pro 12000 Duo; 3000 Wp Solar Autonomy: More than 1 month without solar or battery capacity With decades of service in this region, we re familiar with these unique challenges and using EFOY Pro Fuel Cells in a hybrid combination with solar, was the best eco-friendly solution to ensure year round up-time.
Reference Case: Solar Hybrid Radio Base Station Company: Calzavara S.p.A. Location: Italian Alps, North Italy Average power requirements: 400 W / 48 V (Data transmission and reception, cooling and heating) Solution: EFOY Pro 12000 Duo; 3000 Wp Solar; 1000 Ah batteries Autonomy: Over 12 days with 4 x M28 fuel cartridges without sun or battery capacity The main benefit is to have the maximum reliability possible to avoid out of schedule maintenance because, especially during winter, this can be very costly.
Reference Case: Remote Broadband Internet Location: British Columbia, Canada Company: Columbia Wireless Power requirements: 70 100 W @ 24 V Solution: EFOY Pro 2400 Duo (100 W) + 1200 W Solar We chose to hybridize our existing solar power supply with an EFOY ProCabinet because of its ability to work autonomously and reliably year round in harsh weather conditions with minimal refueling requirements 25/04/2018
Reference Case: Radio Communication Repeater Location: Haast, South Island of New Zealand Company: Powerbox Pacific Power requirements: 50 70 W @ 24 V Solution: EFOY Pro 2400 Duo, 4xM28, 400 W Solar and 260 Ah batteries The primary purpose of the EFOY Pro 2400 Duo battery back-up system for the Haast Pass radio system was to supply energy to the repeaters so they operate seamlessly at full power and power is always available.
Reference Case: Off-Grid Broadband Communication towers Location: Nova Scotia, Canada Company: Seaside Highspeed Power requirements: 70 100 W @ 24 V Solution: EFOY Pro 2400 (100 W) & Solar That site has gone from weekly winter maintenance trips to literally none. Only used about 1.5 jugs of methanol up to that point, a far cry from the 100 s of liters of diesel fuel we had used previously.
