ABSTRACT:
A solar powered refrigeration unit includes an array of solar cells connected in series-parallel configuration to produce more than 12 volts dc. One side of the array is grounded, and the positive output is connected through a diode to the positive terminal of a storage battery. The diode is configured to prevent the battery discharging through the solar cell array. The array is also connectd to one side of a back to back diode arrangement, the junction of which is connected through a thermocouple to a voltage controlled relay. The refrigeration unit compressor is connected to the relay, which is switched on by the thermocouple. The back to back diode arrangement permits the greater voltage of the solar cell array or the storage battery to power the compressor.
