48v 1500w Hot Water Element

48v 1500w Hot Water Element

Can be used in heating up water for off grid applications on 25lt, 50lt and 80lt hot water systems. Perfect as a dump load for small wind turbines, 

The 48v 1500w hot water element can be wired directly to solar panels with around 1500 watt output to heat the water. It can be connected directly to a charge controllers 48v output but it would be better to get a high current dc relay and power that by the controller and just use the relay as an inline switch between your battery ( bank ) and the element, high current cable and fuses should always be used when dealing with this sort of current, the standard water tank thermostat can be used to switch the element off automatically when the preset temperature is reached vie a relay.
