X4 Solar Powered Sectional Door Operator
Model SOL-X4-SPA · SOL-X4-SPB · SOL-X4-HPC · SOL-X4-HPD
The X4 Solar is our newest innovation: a sectional overhead door operator which is powered by a lithium battery pack charged from its own solar panel. The energy is free, so the system pays for itself, and it costs less than a standard or 3-phase installation, especially where the power must be routed from a remote distribution panel.
The solar panel will recharge the batteries within a few minutes, even under a dull, overcast sky. A separate plug-in charger is also supplied, in case the batteries have been in storage for a long time.
It shares the X4's built-in Safety Sense to meet international safety standards including UL325 and CE, operates without a safety edge and has no limit switches. The limits are set electronically at the end of the door's travel.
