Page 27: General Safety Information
Please read the instructions and warnings in this manual carefully before beginning any installation. Please do not disassemble or attempt to repair Phocos products. Phocos charge controllers do not contain user serviceable parts. Please observe all instructions with regards to external fuses/breakers as indicated. -
Page 28: Major Functions
To construct systems using multiple MPS units, MPS has the ability to communicate with Phocos' Modular Central Unit (MCU) in order to exchange system information, to program and to receive all necessary system settings (see MCU manual). -
Page 29: Recommendations For Use
Recommendations for Use The MPS controller warms up during normal operation. If there is insufficient ventilation (e.g. in a cabinet), the controller has built-in overheating protection. The MPS controller does not require any maintenance or service. Remove any dust with a dry tissue. - Page 30 MPS can control loads in positive and negative grounded systems. Grounding is selected by wiring of your MPS, see details in chapter 1.3.2. Load Current: MPS is available in two versions: Type MPS45 MPS80 Nominal load current 45 A 80 A...

voltage rises over the diversion load connect voltage. If two-point control is selected (DIP switch 6 OFF), the diversion load will be switched off after the battery voltage drops below the diversion load disconnect level and pauses one minute to prevent the system from oscillation. When PWM function is selected, the MPS approximates the PWM range to the actual running charge cycle target voltage ( e.g. -
