Professional grade and state of the art, our Solar CCTV system is a specially designed, integrated power system which cosists of solar panels, Lithium battery, a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) charging controller and mounting brackets. It provides a stable power supply for devices such as IP cameras and 4G cameras and compared to other solar systems it is compact, portable, easy to install and is easy to disassemble and maintain too. The solar CCTV power system is designed primarily for use with our Solar compatible 4G and IP cameras which then form a sophisticated and integrated Solar CCTV and monitoring system, and is available in 60 Watt or 120 Watt models. Being an integrated system a full range of system monitoring features are available via the mobile App (see video below) to enable a constant check on the system to be maintained. NOTE that cameras and any additional equipment must be purchased separately, some monitoring features only available when using our recommended camera(s).
Integrated Solar CCTV Power System
The integrated die cast structure means that the solar panel, Lithium battery pack and charging controller are neatly and securely contained providing an improved appearance. The Monocrystalline solar panel provides improved light absorbtion with lower light levels. Use of an Iron Phosphate Lithium battery allows for a longer life and smaller size than the conventional style Lithium battery and the use of the MPPT charging controller improves charging efficiency by 10 - 30 percent over standard style solar charge controllers.
When used with our cameras, you can even real time monitor the operational status of the system, and receive low battery alerts etc. via its mobile. You can find our 4G camera here
The solar cctv power system is well protected and has current limiting, short circuit and reverse current protection of the solar panel itself, it has reverse connection, over voltage, over discharge and over temperature protection for the Lithium battery and there is overload and short circuit protection for the load - device connected to the power system.
There is also an RS485 port and standard Modbus protocol can satisfy communication requirements in certain scenarios.
Our solar power CCTV system is ideal for use with our IP cameras for connection to a local wireless network or with the addition of a 4G signalling unit, or by using our 4G camera a completely stand alone solar powered camera can be installed with remote viewing and no need for local power or communication which you can view remotely and check power and battery status on the mobile App. you can use it for security or have it embedded on your web site - what ever you need just like a normal web cam. Keepig the load to a minimum will provide the longest standby battery duration and you can calculate your load requirements as shown in the full specification listed below. By using Camsecure cameras and systems together you are assured of the best quality and power optimisation, but of course you can use any low voltage equipment via the output from our solar CCTV power system.

Live view and data also on mobile App
Using Solar power means you can install and monitor a camera in a remote location where there are no main services, or can be used as a rapid deployment camera for a temporary event or solution.
By using a 4G camera with the solar power system the signal will be sent via the mobile phone network and therefore providing you have a good signal the solar camera system can be fitted almost anywhere. If you need to use 4G but need a different style camera then you can use our 4G data package with the camera you need and the system can also be used with our long range IP transmission system so you could deploy a camera up to 4 miles (line of sight) from a good internet connection and link it to that - all powered from the solar power system. It could even be used, with suitable equipment, as a remote recording station with data being retrieved either remotely or by visiting the site at periods to gather the information.
All this is possible but you must bear in mind that there is a finite amount of power available and therefore you should calculate power usage carefully and take note that its darker earlier in winter, and at the north of the country etc. and take that into account when calculating power requirements. You can calculate best case power available from the formula below.
So the standard backup time in hours, needs to be divided by the total load power consumption in Watts. This will give you an idea of total backup time for the equipment you intend to use. Remember that most cameras use more power at night as this is when they switch on the IR lights to illuminate their viewing area.
Standard Backup Time in normal conditions: (20°C) >Backup time (h) =576W / total load power consumption (W) So for example if your total load consumption taking in all the factors is 6W, then backup time will be 576Wh / 6W = 96h MAX.
