Page 5: General Information
1. GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1 OVERVIEW The Enerdrive MPPT Solar Controllers adopt the advanced MPPT control algorithm, it can minimize the maximum power point loss rate and loss time, quickly track the maximum power point (MPP) of the PV array and obtain the maximum energy from solar array under any conditions; and it can increase the ratio of energy utilization in the solar system by 20%-30% compared with PWM charging method. -

Page 8: Pv Array Requirements
2.2 PV ARRAY REQUIREMENTS (1) MAXIMUM PV ARRAY POWER The MPPT controller has the function of charging current/power-limiting, that is, during the charging process, when the charging current or power exceeds the rated charging current or power, the controller will automatically limit the charging current or power to the rated range, which can e ectively protect the charging parts of controller, and prevent damages to the controller due to the connection of some over-speci cation PV modules. - Page 9 According to “Peak Sun Hours diagrams”, if the power of PV array exceeds the rated charging power of controller, then the charging time as per the rated power will be prolonged, so that more energy can be obtained for charging the battery. However, in the practical application, the maximum power of PV array shall be not greater than 1.5 x the rated charging power of controller.

Page 10: Wire Size
2.3 WIRE SIZE The wiring and installation methods must conform to all national and local electrical code requirements. PV WIRE SIZE Since PV array output can vary due to the PV module size, connection method or sunlight angle, the minimum wire size can be calculated by the Isc＊ of PV array. Please refer to the value of Isc in the PV module speci cation. - Page 11 BATTERY AND LOAD WIRE SIZE The battery and load wire size must conform to the rated current, the reference sizes as below are a guide only: LOAD RATED CHARGE RATED DISCHARGE BATTERY MODEL WIRE SIZE CURRENT CURRENT WIRE SIZE EN43510 4MM²/12AWG 4MM²/12AWG EN43520...

2.4 MOUNTING WARNING • Risk of explosion! Never install the controller in a sealed enclose with ooded batteries! Do not install in a con ned area where battery gas can accumulate. • Risk of electric shock! When wiring the solar modules, the PV array can produce a high open circuit voltage, so turn o the breaker before wiring and be careful when wiring. - Page 13 Step 2: Connect the system in the order of 1 battery > 2 load>3 PV array in accordance with Figure 2-2, ”Schematic Wiring Diagram” and disconnect the system in the reverse order 3>2>1. CAUTION • While wiring the controller do not close the circuit breaker or fuse and make sure that the leads of "+"...

PV Over Current/Power WARNING: When the PV’s charging current is greater than the rated current, the PV’s open circuit voltage cannot greater than the "maximum PV open-circuit voltage", otherwise the controller may be damaged. - Page 24 When the battery voltage reaches the low voltage disconnect voltage, it will automatically stop battery discharging to prevent battery damage caused by over-discharging. (Any controller connected loads will be Battery Over Discharge disconnected. Loads directly connected to the battery will not be a ected and may continue to discharge the battery.) The controller can detect the battery temperature through an external temperature sensor.
