Prevost Liberty Monster Solar System
From time to time, we get the chance to work on dream RV solar systems that are pushing the limits of what's possible in an RV. Recently we had the opportunity to design and install a massive comprehensive solar system on a Class A Prevost Liberty. The client wanted a system that would allow them to have a complete power autonomy for extended periods of time off grid. The goal was to pack as much solar power, inverting capabilities and power storage capacity that would work seamlessly with the very complex Prevost electrical system and without losing too much storage space. The result is a solar system that would rival the capabilities of a small house. The system can run all four AC units on inverter power alone if needed while seamlessly incorporates with the RV's electrical system including the on board 20Kw generator. We settled on a 48VDC main power system with a 5,000W of rooftop solar array, feeding a 20,480Wh smart LiFePO4 battery bank and powering the 10,000VA/8,000W inverters that supply the RV with continues 120/240 split phase AC power on demand. Also, the system includes powerful 24VDC and 12VDC converters powering the 24VDC/12VDC house power circuits. Monitoring and control are provided by Victron's Cerbo GX Touch 70 monitoring and control system including integrated auto gen controls. The system specs include:
5000W of roof top solar array.
