Diodes for Wind, Solar, and AGM Battery Projects

What is a diode? Simply an electronic one way road.
Blocking diode with Anode -a and Cathode - c
>Diodes are used for blocking batteries ability to charge the power grid.<
>Diodes keep batteries from charging solar panels.<
>Diodes keep batteries from charging wind generators<

Written by Sandia National Test Laboratories Discussion on Blocking Diodes



Without diodes properly installed in your renewable energy system, be it wind, water, or solar, your batteries will never operate correctly.

We sell 85 Amp diodes that are stud mounted. Because the silicon junction is carefully fitted within a glass to–metal hermetically sealed case, reliable operation is assured, even with extreme humidity and under other severe environmental conditions. A double diffused, passivated junction technique is utilized to provide stable uniform electrical characteristics. Inherent in their design are very low leakage currents and excellent surge handling capability. These Current Blocking diodes are ideal for a broad range of commercial and military uses including power supplies, renewable energy generation, ultrasonic systems, inverters, welders, emergency generators, battery chargers, DC motors, backup power supplies, and motor controls. If you need a diode other than you see listed, drop us a line via the contact page, and we will do our best to help you out.

Diodes are not overcurrent protection. To install overcurrent protection in your system, you must add either breakers or fuses.

100 Amp Battery Isolator - $99.99

All in 1, Schottkey diodes in a dual system current isolator. Typically used in renewable energy systems, rv upgrades and repairs. Blocking diodes block the battery/grid from charging the system, and the starting batteries from being run down by the Deep Cycle RV Batteries. These battery isolators will safely block up to 100 Amps sustained at 24 Volts. For larger loads see the 200 and 600 volt model diodes.

200v Volt Blocking Diode for Renewable Energy Systems - $24.99

All renewable energy systems, be they solar, hydro or wind, need a blocking diode to block the battery/grid from charging the system. These diodes will safely block up to 85 Amps sustained at 200 Volts. For larger loads see the 600 volt model.

600 Volt Blocking Diode for Renewable Energy Systems - $29.99

All renewable energy systems, be they solar, hydro or wind, need a blocking diode to block the battery/grid from charging the system. These diodes will safely block up to 85 Amps sustained at 600 Volts. For smaller loads see the 200 volt model.

1200 Volt Blocking Diode for Renewable Energy Systems - $34.99

All renewable energy systems, be they solar, hydro or wind, need a blocking diode to block the battery/grid from charging the system. These diodes will safely block up to 85 Amps sustained at 1200 Volts. For smaller loads see the 200 volt and 600 volt models.

OUR DENVER WAREHOUSE IS MOVING TO A NEW LOCATION AT THIS TIME.
WE WERE SCHEDULED TO REOPEN OUR BRICK AND MORTAR BATTERY WAREHOUSE
IN EARLY 2011. IN THE MEAN TIME OUR WEBSITE AND PHONES OPERATE FINE!

We do thank the public for the outreach of concern, and votes of confidence.
Do call Lorene prior to schedule used battery pickups, new battery dropoffs, etc. by appointment.
