7846 SES America (SESA) and its partners New England Traffic Solutions and New England Signal Systems recently completed testing and commissioning of solar powered signs for several weigh stations in New Hampshire. These are installed on the northbound and southbound I-93 near Windham, NH and will be used to display the open/closed status of weigh stations on the highway.

SESA provided the latest model of its energy-efficient blank out signs as part of the project, along with a complete solar power system that included solar PV panels, batteries, a solar charge controller and other accessories. Utilising solar power reduces installation time and the costs associated with traditional power cabling and power supplied from the grid.  

Both the solar power system and the signs are designed to withstand harsh environments and extreme temperatures; the signs are tested to NEMA TS2 in third party laboratories. Each sign can easily be connected with different monitoring systems and fault detection capabilities, as well as optional full NTCIP functionality.
