DC Radio, VCD, CD and Cassette Player
Music, movies and news, accessible to you
for your enjoyment in areas without electricity.
The DC VCD player and DC LCD TV will
provide you hours of entertainment.
DC Appliances
LCD TV
For home entertainment and as a window to
the world.
LCD TVs operate in 12V DC and allows low
power consumption for long hours of viewing.
These flat screen TVs do not take up much
space in your home, caravan or shop.
DC Computing
You can make a quantum leap by using DC
powered computers, or by installing the Sundaya
ATX 12VDC internal power
supply in your existing desktop
computer.
If you have power from the
grid, you can combine power
sources by putting a DC10 to
charge your DC storage while powering your DC
PC, so that when grid power is out, power will
be automatically drawn from your S3 or S4,
allowing you to continue working for many hours
longer.

The Hub1 is designed to make the DC
installation look neat; instead of many
cables running up and down your wall,
now only one cable connects both Charger
and Load to your storage system, using
a single plug.
Above the ceiling you can connect the
source (either from a Solar Panel,
Sundaya's DC10 or any other Sundaya-
recommended DC Generating Source).

To prevent accidents in households
where both 12VDC and 220VAC
installations co-exists, Sundaya has
developed a special DC standard
armature range, with a fitting size
that is in between the most common
E27 and E14 AC standard. All
Sundaya Lamp fittings are
standardized for 12VDC using the
E17 fitting.
The E17 range is unique because
with only a few components and
various shades you can build any
lamp for any lighting purpose you
require in your home, office or shop,
on the ceiling wall or table.

The installation of S4a consist of the following steps:
1. Selection of suitable location
2. Installation of wall mounting bracket
3. Installation of Hub 1 cabling system
4. Starting up the system
With DC low voltage systems it is important to locate the
Storage System close to the appliance that consumes most
power.
Installation
Step 1 : Selection of suitable location.
www.sundaya.com
If you for example intend to use your S4a for powering
lights and a computer or TV ; then the most power
consuming loads will be the TV or computer , and
thus the S4a must be located as near as possible
to this appliance in order to prevent unnecessary
voltage drop in long cables.

Step 2 : Installation of Wall Mounting Bracket.
The S4a can be either put on a
table or mounted on a wall. In
case you mount the unit on the
wall it is important to make sure
that the quality of the wall is
strong enoughto support the
weight of the unit. In case you
are not convinced about the wall
strength then we recommend to
use bolts that go all the way
through the wall to mount the S4a
Mounting Bracket.
It is recommended to
mount the S4a at least
90 cm from the floor
level to keep it out of
children’s reach.

Our sturdy and well
constructed PV Module
Support Structures make
mounting your PV Module
on the rooftop an easy task.
Installation
Materials To make a cross joint
between cables, just
sandwhich them between
two halves of a T-Con
and then tighten the
contact screws.
The S-Con is like the T-Con,
but used to connect a switch
(Pull-On, wall switch, etc.)
that will toggle the
current flow to the
opposite branch of the
cross joint.
Unlike AC, wiring on a DC system
has polarity, positive-negative, and
it is dangerous if you connect them
in the wrong way. So we designed a
special cable that has a unique cross
section shape. Impossible to switch
polarities.
Cables have to go through windows
having this shape on all
Sundaya fittings, to prevent
inserting the cable in
the wrong way.
This is a uniquely shaped
pair of plugs for connecting
your DC appliances.
Plug-C is from the
supply side and D-
Plug is on the
appliances end. Plug-
C is available as the
4Way Socket
extension cord.

The DC10 converts AC
power from 150-270V AC
to 12V DC, for charging
the S4 or S3 and
simultaneously powering
the DC Appliances. When
AC power is available, the Storage
System will not be discharged. Only
when AC power for whatever reason
is not available, power is supplied
by the Storage System.
Our PV modules come pre-
cabled for easy Plug and
Play with the rest of the
Sundaya System
components. All you need
to do is plug the module cable to the
Hub1 that comes with the S4.

DC Storage
Our futuristic, intelligent, portable and wall-mountable DC Storage.
It comes in a beautifully designed sealed casing, giving protection
to its user, as well as complementary to the house interior.
Ideal for DC lighting, DC computers, DC audio equipment,
DC televisions or any appliance that operates on 12V
DC. Its controller is equipped with a custom microprocessor,
constantly monitoring to protect the battery against
overcharge, overdischarge and usage abuse, thanks to
the FHITM algorithm in the microprocessor’s program. It
makes sure that once every ten days the battery gets a
chance to recharge back to full capacity.
The intuitive LCD at the front panel tells you the condition
of the battery, whether it is charging, discharging, etc. A
buzzer warning tells you if the battery is running low.
