SOLAR PANELS

NOT PROVIDED. SEE ACCESSORIES.
Solar Application requirements:
• A minimum of two 10W solar panels in series (Model SOLPNL10W12V).
• A maximum of six 10W solar panels (Model SOLPNL10W12V).
• Battery Tray (Model K10-36183).
• Solar Battery Harness (Model K94-37236).
• Two 33AH batteries, the standard 7AH batteries cannot be used.
• A heater cannot be used with a solar application.
Disconnect the expansion board if it is not in use to improve performance. We recommend LiftMaster low power draw accessories to minimize power
draw, refer to accessory page. NOTE: Input solar power is 24 Vdc at 60 watts maximum.
The solar panel(s) must be located in an open area clear of obstructions and shading for the entire day. The gate operator is not supported in northern
climates where temperatures reach below -4˚F. This is due to cold weather and a reduced number of hours of sunlight during the winter months. Cycle
rate may vary from solar chart for areas that reach below 32˚F. Solar panels should be cleaned on a regular basis for best performance to ensure
proper operation.
