Solar bus shelter lighting

Zeta Solar's bus shelter lighting increases passenger security and the perception of safety for public transport users.

A solar option means instant installation, no traffic disruption and eliminates the cost and delays associated with traditional grid connection.

Solar powered LED lighting systems from Zeta give Local Authorities, Councils and Street Furniture Manufacturers the ability to install illuminated shelters wherever they are needed, including remote areas where mains electricity is not an option.

A specially manufactured, vandal resistant, flexible solar panel is attached to the roof of the shelter which harnesses the sun's energy throughout the day.

This energy is stored by the long life AGM batteries and at dusk the innovative Energy Management System (EMS) releases the stored energy and uses it to power high intensity Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) The system maintains a constant low level of illumination until a passenger enters the shelter and activates the built in Passive Infra Red technology (PIR).

The light levels will then gently increase and remain fully activated until the passenger has vacated the immediate area.

The Zeta EMS contains the unique Energy Optimiser which is specifically designed to manage solar energy charge.

The microprocessor based system monitors battery charge levels.

When the charge is low the light output level is temporarily lowered to allow the charge to build up while ensuring constant illumination.

This ability to regulate the output of the LED drivers ensures that the system operates at optimum performance throughout the winter period.
