1,800 RPM / automatic start
EXTERNAL INPUT TO INVERTER / CHARGER
Shore power
208/230 V three-phase
POWER PRIORITY: SOLAR / BATTERY BUFFER / AUTO-GENSET BACKUP
DESIGN ENERGY BALANCE
MAXIMUM PUBLISHED PRODUCTION
360 gal/day
Maximum published water output
PUBLISHED CONSUMPTION
0.60 kWh/gal
At 90°F / 90% relative humidity
DAILY ENERGY REQUIREMENT
~216 kWh/day
At maximum production
EQUIVALENT AVERAGE DEMAND
~9 kW
T-200 average demand
The 30 kW genset provides sufficient capacity to operate the T-200 while simultaneously recharging the 120 kWh battery. Production and consumption figures below are published design values, not guaranteed output in all conditions.

06:00
06:00–11:00
Morning solar + battery
Solar production ramps up while the battery supplements AWG demand.
11:00–16:00
Peak solar
Solar can offset approximately 50–65% of instantaneous AWG demand during strong peak-sun conditions. The battery supplies the balance.
16:00–22:00
Evening battery run
Battery supports quiet T-200 operation using stored energy.
22:00–06:00
Automated genset cycle
Generator operates approximately 8–9 hours/day as required by battery state of charge, solar availability and production demand.
Generator + battery: the generator simultaneously powers the AWG while excess capacity recharges the battery. The schedule is illustrative; actual generator runtime and solar contribution vary with temperature, humidity, solar irradiance, battery state of charge and desired production rate.
