Applicability This manual describes the installation, function, operation and maintenance of the solar charge controller.
  • Page 4: General Safety Instructions

    General safety instructions X Follow the general and national safety and accident prevention regulations. X Never alter or remove the factory plates and identification labels. X Keep children away from PV systems. X Never open the device. Other risks Danger of fire and explosion X Do not use the solar charge controller in dusty environments, in the vicinity of solvents or where inflammable gases and vapours can occur.
  • Page 5: Description

    Description Functions The solar charge controller • monitors the battery voltage, • controls the charging process, • controls the connection/disconnection of loads connected to the load output. This optimises battery use and significantly extends its service life. Solarzellen konv. La A battery charging algorithm protects the battery from harmful states.

The module voltage can deviate signifi- cantly from the battery voltage. 3.1.4 Notes on choosing suitable solar modules This solar charge controller has a maximum input voltage of 100 V. If this is exceeded even for a short time by the connected solar module, the solar charge controller will be damaged beyond repair and can never be used again.

    4.1. Mounting the solar charge controller 4.1.1 Mounting location requirements • Do not mount the solar charge controller outdoors or in wet rooms. • Do not subject the solar charge controller to direct sunshine or other sources of heat. • Protect the solar charge controller from dirt and moisture. • Mount upright on the wall (concrete) on a non-flammable substrate.
  • Page 9 4.2.2 Connection WARNING Danger of explosion from sparking! Danger of electric shock! X At a voltage of > 75 V, particularly with regard to module open circuit volt- age (over the entire temperature range), the entire solar energy system must be installed with protection class II.
  • Page 10 Loads connected in this manner must also be separately fused. Loads of this type can also be reliably connected via an additional output relay (e.g. Steca PA EV 200 A). X Label the load connection cables as a plus cable (L+) and a minus cable (L–).
  • Page 11 X First connect the L+ load cable to the correct pole of the right pair of ter- minals on the solar charge controller (with the lamp symbol), then connect the L– cable. X Replace the load fuse or switch on the load. 4th step: final work X Fasten all cables with strain relief in the direct vicinity of the solar charge controller (clearance of approx.
  • Page 12: Operation

    Operation The solar charge controller immediately begins operation once the battery is connected or the external fuse is inserted. The display of the solar charge controller shows the current operating mode. User intervention or user settings are not required. Protection functions The following integrated protection functions of the solar charge controller ensure that the battery is handled as gently as possible.
