Important Notes 1. Keep this user’s manual and follow all instructions indicated in the manual. 2. Don’t overload the charger. 3. Don’t split the charger apart; otherwise, your warranty is void. 4. Only authorized technician may repair or replace the interior components. 5.
1.0 Introduction BUCK-1000/1500W photovoltaic charger is to convert the energy from solar panel to load or batteries connected. With different load or batteries connected, it can be set as 12V, 24V, 36V or 48V system. The solar charger can get max. efficiency up to 95%. The solar cells can get the highest efficiency by means of Maximum Power Point Tracking(MPPT) and pulse charge method..
Battery temperature sensor automatically provides temperature compensated battery charging. Provide communication software to monitor the status of the charger. Smart fan speed Control according to the load connected. This intelligent charger may set output voltage automatically or user may select output voltage 12/ 24 /36/ 48 V via LCD panel。...
Figure 3: Installation Site 1.2 Installation Please remove the wiring compartment cover for installation as illustrated below. After installation, please fasten the cover back to its original position. Figure 4: Disassemble Wiring Compartment Cover Figure 5: Cabling Contact Description To the positive(+) of solar cell To negative(-) of solar cell Bat+ To the positive(+) of Bat.

After turning on the PV charger, it will display current solar cells’ voltage. If you would like to see other parameters, you may press key or key. Caution: keys are of no use. You may press key to scroll up and down to get different display information and message.
2.1.1Enter into Setting Mode Make sure the output voltage and capacity of the battery are set properly. Caution! Before entering into setting mode, make sure the battery and the load are removed; otherwise, it might damage the battery and the load due to improper setting. Step1: Make sure the charger is connected with solar cell with 40V~150Vdc voltage and do not turn on the charge.
2.1.2Battery Capacity(AH) Setting Step1: It indicates the current battery capacity when getting into Battery Capacity setting. Step2: Select desired battery capacity (AH) by scroll key or key. The digit with flashing cursor means the desired one to be changed. If you would like to change the left-hand/right-hand digit, you may press key or respectively.
Step2: To select other battery voltage by scrolling key and key. Step3: Battery voltage can be set as 12V, 24V, 36V, 48V or Auto. When the desired voltage is selected, please press key to save till “SAVE” shown on the screen.
Step4: If you would like to escape from battery over- and under- voltage setting, please press key to escape. 2.1.5 Battery Under-Voltage Limit Setting In normal condition, it is not necessary to calibrate this setting as long as the battery voltage selected is within window.
Step1: Step1: Enter into Pulse Charge Setting. If it shows “ON” it means the charger is able to be in Pulse Charge; on the contrary, it means the charger is not able to be in Pulse Charge if it shows “OFF”. Step2: You may select “ON”...
left-hand figure, you may press key and the right-hand figure, you may press key. Step3: The range of the total input power can be selected from 0~999K KWH. Once the figure is selected, you may press key to save. Make sure the “SAVE” shown on the screen, then you may release key now.
