Waterproof precautions for 100w led solar street light controller

In the practical application of 100w led solar street lights produced by many solar street light suppliers, the street lights in many places cannot meet the needs of normal lighting on the road, especially in continuous rainy days and winter lack of light. In addition to the related components with poor quality, another main reason is to blindly reduce the cost of street light components, not design and configure according to requirements, and reduce the use standard of battery panels and batteries, which leads to the failure of street lights to provide lighting on rainy days.

1. The whole light is off

100w led solar street lights are used for outdoor lighting. Naturally, the high temperature and rainy weather and low temperature rain and snow caused by the change of seasons must not be turned on. The controllers of solar street lights are often installed in the light poles, which is easy to cause water to enter the controller. If there is a short circuit and other phenomena, if it happens, first observe whether the terminals of the controller have water marks and rust. If so, it is very likely that the controller has been damaged. If not, consider the voltage measurement of the battery , If there is no problem with the above, then you should check the light source, only connect the power supply to the light source to see if it can light up normally, if it does not light up, you need to consider replacing the power supply.

2. The lighting time is short or the duration of cloudy and rainy days is short, which is usually caused by the decrease in the storage capacity of the battery and the sufficient storage capacity. If this phenomenon occurs, replace the battery with a reasonable one.

3. The light source of 100w led solar street light is not fully lit. Many street lights use dot-matrix LED light source. In addition to the quality problem of the LED light source itself, some lamp beads will also cause this situation. The easiest solution is to replace the corresponding lamp. Beads, solder firmly or replace the entire lamp head.

Solar street light controllers are mostly installed in lampshades and battery boxes, and generally do not allow water to enter. However, in actual engineering cases, due to improper installation or the circuit board of some controllers is not treated with three-proof paint, it is also because Rainwater flows into the controller along the external wiring of the controller terminal, which will cause a short circuit. Therefore, during construction, attention should be paid to bending the internal connecting wire of the controller terminal into a "U" shape and fixing it, and the exposed connecting wire also needs to be fixed. It is "U" shape, so that the rainwater cannot get in and cause the controller to short-circuit. In addition, waterproof glue can be applied to the interface of the internal and external cables to prevent water.
