What is the service life and maintenance cost of a mobile solar lighting tower

2024-07-12

Mobile solar lighting lighthouse is a kind of lighting equipment that uses solar energy to generate electricity and has a wide range of applications. It is not only widely used in lighthouses, but also in navigation beacons, night construction, open-air activities and other occasions, solving the power demand that traditional lighting equipment cannot meet. So what is the service life and maintenance cost of solar lighting lighthouses?

First, solar-powered lighting towers generally have a longer service life. Generally speaking, the solar panels used in solar lighting lighthouses have a lifespan of more than 20 years. The solar panel is the core component of the solar lighthouse, and its main function is to convert solar energy into electrical energy. Most of the materials used in solar panels are silicon wafers or thin-film solar cells, which have good weather resistance and anti-aging properties and can work stably for a long time in harsh outdoor environments.

 

In addition, the battery of a solar lighting lighthouse is also one of the components with a long service life. Solar lighting lighthouses usually use lead-acid batteries, which generally have a lifespan of more than 3-5 years. The battery is a device that stores electrical energy generated by solar panels and is usually used at night or on rainy days. Lead-acid batteries have high stability and reliability, and their service life can be extended through reasonable charge and discharge control.

 

In addition, other components of solar lighting towers include controllers, lamps and brackets, etc., which also have a longer service life. The controller is the core of the solar lighting system and is responsible for managing solar power generation and electrical energy storage. Its lifespan can generally reach more than 5-8 years. Lamps are key components that provide lighting, and their bulbs generally have a service life of more than 1-3 years. The bracket is the support structure for solar panels and lamps. It is made of materials with good weather resistance and has a service life of more than 10 years.

 In general, the service life of solar lighting lighthouses is long, mainly depending on the service life of the core components solar panels and batteries, which can reach 15-20 years or even longer. At the same time, key components such as interference-resistant lamps and controllers have a longer service life.

In addition to their longevity, solar-lit lighthouses generally have lower maintenance costs. Traditional lighthouses generally require laying cables to the lighthouse location, which results in higher installation and maintenance costs. Solar lighting lighthouses can reduce the laying of cables and only need to install solar panels, batteries and other equipment on the lighthouse, and the cost is relatively low. The maintenance of solar lighting lighthouses mainly includes regular inspection and maintenance of batteries, as well as regular cleaning and inspection of other components. Since the core components of solar lighting towers have a long life, the maintenance and upkeep costs are relatively low.

To sum up, the service life of solar lighting lighthouses is long, generally more than 15-20 years. The core components, solar panels and batteries, have good weather resistance and anti-aging properties; the maintenance cost of solar lighting lighthouses is relatively low. , mainly including regular inspection and maintenance of batteries, cleaning and inspection of other parts, etc. Since solar lighting lighthouses have the characteristics of long life and low maintenance costs, which greatly reduce the use and maintenance costs, they are very popular in practical applications.
