Supply concepts
The following table gives an overview of the possible supply concepts including the
respective advantages and disadvantages:
| Supply concept | Advantages | Disadvantages |
|---|
| Supply by primary battery | - Minimal installation effort
- No energy source required at the installation site
| - Requires a cyclic replacement of the power supply unit
|
| Supply by PV module | - Self-sufficient operation
- No energy source required at the installation site
| - Due to the energy supply using a PV module, there is a dependency on
insolation
|
| Mains operation (230 V AC) | - No cyclic passing by the measurement site needed
- No dependency on insolation
| - Energy source required at the installation site
- Power supply unit
required
- High installation effort
|
| DC power supply (12...32 VDC ) | - No cyclic passing by the measurement site needed
- No dependecy on insolation
| - Energy source required at the installation site
- High installation effort
