Connecting Power Pack 1
All connectors on the SP1 and PP1 are IP67 rated when correctly mated. The PP1 case is also IP67 rated meaning
it is protected against the effects of temporary immersion in water between 15cm and 1m for no longer than 30
minutes. Dust caps must be fitted properly if the connection is not being used. If possible avoid positioning the
PP1 in direct sunlight to limit temperature effects on the battery.
The connections for the solar panel input and 12 volt output feature a locking collar to ensure the connection is
sealed. To insert remove the dust cap and align the connector and insert; there is a locating ridge to ensure
correct orientation. Once inserted, twist the collar clockwise to lock in place. The connectors for the solar panel
and 12 volt output are opposite gender preventing incorrect connections.
