Before using this gadget please carefully read this manual. General Information The Silentwind-Charge controller HYBRID BOOST is a combined wind and solar charge regulator with an inbuilt micro-controller. The HYBRID BOOST was espe- cially developed for the Silentwind Generator and enables you additionally to install solar panels up to a wattage of 300 Watt peak or to a max.
2. Technical data Hybrid-charge controller type HYBRID BOOST Battery system voltage (automatically detected) 12 / 24 / 48 Volt Max. power input of the wind generator 600 W Max. current input of the wind generator 40A / 30A / 15A 300Wp Max.
3. Components of the charge controller 3.1. Bottom panel On the down side of the charge controller there are screw terminals to connect the battery, the wind generator, the solar panels and DC consumers. The connections for the remote brake are also below. 3.2.
As you can see from the wiring diagram in paragraph 1 a 3-pole cable with suitable cross section must be wired from the Silentwind-Generator to the charge control- ler. The charge power gets from the charge controller to the batteries through two...
Please take note: After the connection of the battery you can connect the Silentwind Generator, the solar panel and if required a load output with maximum 10A. On the 3-phase output wires of the Silentwind you need not to pay attention to polarity.
5). You can choose the type of stop switch suitable to your instrument panel. 8. Connecting solar panels The charge controller Hybrid BOOST is a hybrid controller both for wind and solar energy. Solar panels with a max power of 300 Wp ( 20 A for 12V / 10 A for 24V and 5 A for 48V) can be connected, See technical details page 4.
If the charge end voltage or maximum charge current is reached, the Silentwind Generator will stop for approx. 5 minutes. The break mode of the charge regulator generates internal rising temperatures that are thermically detected.
This means that the Silentwind Generator can also be operated with a larger battery capacity. If a large battery capacity is discharged, a higher charge current will flow in high wind speeds. As you can set the maximum charge current you can prevent overheating of the charge controller.
10.2.3 Break adjustment You can set the current when you want to stop Silentwind Generator. This prevents overheating, especially with big battery banks and high loading currents. This function can also be used to reduce the RPM of the Silentwind Generator.
Click on save data to save the settings. Safety advice Please never disconnect the battery wires while the Silentwind Generator is charging. This will immediately destroy the charge controller. If you want to measure the current flowing, an amp-meter must be installed in the positive battery wire. Mind the polarity of...
If the Silentwind Generator generates too little power – The wind speed is too low, see the performance diagrams shown in the manual of the Silentwind. The wind speed measured on top of the mast is higher than at the position of the wind generator! –...
