These two sheets form the electrical connection for the six resistors. Both sheets are mounted to a solid piece of ceramic board. Two terminals with aluminum nuts are provided for a solid connection to your wiring. The entire unit is enclosed in a Hoffman 12 x 16 x 4 enclosure with a vented cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eThese resistors have been selected specifically to perform as diversion (dummy) loads in solar\/wind\/hydro alternate energy systems. Unlike water heating elements, this unit does not need to be submerged in water or oil. It will operate in free air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eResistors have been selected based on their ability to dissipate a very specific amount of power (watts) with a very specific resistance value (ohms), at a very specific voltage. When used as recommended, they will not burn out, even under continuous use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note. These resistors will become hot during normal use, please mount them away from heat sensitive objects and out of the reach of children.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eWhen diversion control is needed for hydro, wind, or a combination with solar, use these heater loads with a charge controller capable of diversion control. Controls that can operate as diversion type are Schneider C-Series and Morningstar Tristar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eDiversion never disconnects the charge source from the battery. The control connects to the battery and “absorbs” or “burns off” exactly enough power to offset any excess charging. The load dissipates the surplus power into heated air or water. Diversion heat loads should be selected for at least as many amps as all charging sources combined, but must be several amps LESS than maximum amp rating of the control to be used. A load that accepts more amps than the control can handle may cause the control to shut down, creating a safety hazard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eCall Backwoods Solar to discuss which diversion load is appropriate for your installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e22 Lbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e16″ x 12″ x 4″\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Coleman Air","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43402100408383,"sku":"C-HL-48V","price":260.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0629\/4611\/5647\/files\/C-HL-XXV.png?v=1781560357","url":"https:\/\/backwoodssolar.com\/products\/diversion-heat-load-25a-48v-1500w-lw-pwr","provider":"Backwoods Solar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
