What Is the Rainy-Day Operation Principle of Solar Surveillance Towers?
2025-09-17
As core equipment in BIGLUX's mobile solar security system, products like the HiSOLO Solar Surveillance Trailer, HiGUARD Solar CCTV Tower, and HiSTAR Solar Surveillance Tower are designed with all-weather stable operation as their core goal. For the user concern of “how to ensure security functions on rainy days,” their operation principle is fully based on the products' established technical configurations and functional designs, which can be broken down into three key aspects:
1. Solar Panels: Smart Power Optimization for Stable Basic Supply Rainy weather may cause water droplets or debris to cover solar panels, reducing power generation efficiency. BIGLUX solar surveillance towers address this issue through a dedicated smart power system:
All models are equipped with Epever/Victron smart MPPT systems. Even when light intensity fluctuates on rainy days, the system optimizes charging strategies in real time—automatically adjusting voltage and current to maximize capture of low-light energy, minimizing power loss caused by insufficient sunlight.
Take the HiSTAR Solar CCTV Tower as an example: Its 5 high-power solar panels, combined with the MPPT system, maintain basic power generation efficiency on rainy days, providing electrical support for core device functions (surveillance, sensing).
2. Surveillance Equipment: Waterproof Design + Durable Structure to Ensure Uninterrupted Function The surveillance components (cameras, sensors, etc.) of BIGLUX solar surveillance towers are engineered with waterproof features specifically for rainy conditions:
Core surveillance devices are fitted with waterproof enclosures, which effectively prevent rainwater from seeping in and damaging internal components. Even during moderate to heavy rain, cameras retain clear visibility and continuously monitor the surrounding environment: For instance, the HiGUARD Compact Solar CCTV Tower can accurately cover key locations at construction sites (such as material storage areas and job site entrances) on rainy days, promptly detecting potential security threats like non-compliant operations or suspicious individuals.
The overall structure of the equipment is optimized for durability. It can withstand wind and humidity changes associated with rain, avoiding operational failures caused by loose parts or moisture. This makes it suitable for long-term use in complex outdoor scenarios like construction sites and mining areas.
3. Power Supply System: Backup Energy Storage + Multi-Source Charging for Rainy-Day Endurance To prevent power interruptions caused by insufficient sunlight on rainy days, the power supply system of BIGLUX solar surveillance towers is designed with redundancy protection:
All models come standard with high-capacity backup batteries. On sunny days, excess electricity generated by solar panels is stored in the batteries; on rainy days, the system automatically switches to battery power, ensuring 24/7 uninterrupted operation of the equipment.
Some models support multi-source charging. If continuous rainy weather leads to low battery levels, an external emergency power supply can be connected to avoid equipment shutdown due to power depletion. This design is particularly suitable for scenarios requiring “zero-interruption security,” such as remote mining areas and long-term construction sites.
Conclusion Whether for temporary security needs at construction sites or long-term monitoring at mining areas, the rainy-day operation logic of BIGLUX solar surveillance towers centers on three priorities: ensuring stable power supply, protecting equipment safety, and maintaining surveillance functions.
