SOLAR CONTROLLER
Advanced MCU – Features control pulse width modulated (PWM) technology, high efficiency
operation.
Multi-Chemistry – Target for Gel, AGM, Conventional lead-acid (WET) and Calcium Batteries.
5 Stage solar controller – Built in regulator to prevent your battery from being overcharged.
Overcharging occurs when the charge voltage is unregulated. This can result in premature
battery failure.
The regulator also prevents your battery from being under charged, in the solar energy field,
battery undercharge always occurs, especially on some Conventional lead – acid or Calcium
batteries; The unit provides an automatic Equalization feature for deeply drained Conventional
lead acid batteries or Calcium batteries.
It keeps the battery fully charged by using a process called "floating". This means the controller
will stop charging when the battery is full and will automatically start charging the battery as
required. This process will also reduce water loss and help prevent the battery from 'drying out'.
Multi-Chemistry – Suitable for charging Gel, AGM (Sealed), Conventional lead-acid (WET) and
Calcium batteries.
Discharge Protection – Protects your battery from discharge at night. Under low light or no
light conditions the solar panel voltage could be less than the battery voltage. The unit contains
a special circuit which prevents current flowing back from the battery and into the solar panel.
LED Indicators – Coloured LED's to easily indicate the operational status and battery conditions.
Unit Protection – Protects against reverse polarity, short circuit, over temperature, over voltage, etc.
BATTERY TYPE SELECTION
Please check your battery manufacturer's specifications to select correct battery type.
The unit provides 4 battery types for selections: Gel, AGM, WET (conventional lead acid),
and Calcium.
There is a DIP switch at the back of the solar charge controller, this Dip switch is used for
presetting your battery type. Please refer to Figure 1.1 to make DIP switch setting for the
proper battery chemical; the factory default setting is at AGM battery type.
