I am working here with the Ministry of Health planning to install solar (photovoltaic) generators. I would need the systems to provide power to refrigerators and freezers in which heat sensitive vaccines are stored. Here are the specs:
A) Freezer Unit – Made by Vestfrost – Model MF 314
Electricity consumption is rated at 2,71 Kw/24 hours
The device should run 24 hours per day
Desired autonomy (reserve power) is 4 to 5 days a month, to continue working when skys are cloudy, or there is no sunshine.
B) Refrigerator – Made by Vestfrost – Model MK 304
Electricity consumption is rated at 1,67 Kw/24 hours
The device should run 12 hours per day
Desired autonomy (reserve power) is 4 to 5 days a month, to continue working when skys are cloudy, or there is no sunshine.
The average peak sunshine per day for the country is 6 to 8 hours. Following are the equipment ordered to make up the generators:
