SOLAR CHARGE CONTROLLERS Description Your Expion360 Solar Charge Controller utilizes maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technology to optimize the energy captured from the sun. Solar charge controllers are essential to convert the energy from the solar panel(s) into energy that can be used to charge the batteries in your chosen energy storage solution.

This is to protect the inter- nal MPPT circuitry and prolong the lifespan of the unit. Use the Bluetooth app to connect your devices to the MPPT charge controller. Thank you for choosing Expion360!
SAFETY Safety Instructions 1. Please read the manual carefully before using the charge controller. 2. There are no parts inside the controller that can be maintained or repaired. The user will void the warranty if the controller is disassembled. 3. Install the controller indoors to prevent exposure of components and prevent water from entering the controller.

FEATURES Product Features • Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technology with rapid response time, enabling higher efficiency up to 99.9%. • Highly efficient internal conversion circuitry, offering up to 98% efficiency. • Charging output has active voltage stabilization in the case of a sudden open circuit at the battery BMS controller.
SOLAR CHARGE CONTROLLERS Output Characteristics The maximum power point for photovoltaics often change throughout the day due to fluctuating ambient temperature and light conditions. The MPPT controller can rapidly adjust controller parameters to keep the system at its maximum efficiency. This process is fully automatic and does not require any adjustments by users.

FEATURES Lithium Charging Profile Charging your Expion360 lithium batteries with our MPPT solar charge controller is the optimal way to deliver energy. As the voltage of lithium batteries increases with additional charge from the charge controller, the MPPT technology is able to adjust the output current to maximize utilization of the solar power.
SOLAR CHARGE CONTROLLERS WARNING: Danger, explosion hazard! Never install the controller and a vented battery in the same enclosed space! Also, do not install in an ≥ 6 in enclosed place where battery gas may collect. WARNING: Danger, high voltage hazard! Photovoltaic arrays may generate very high, open-circuit voltages.

INSTALLATION Step 3: Fasten the controller Hang the controller up, then fix the lower two screws. Step 4: Wire for installation safety We recommend the wiring sequence as illustrated below: WARNING: Danger, electric shock hazard! We strongly recommend connecting a fuse or circuit breaker to the PV array and battery terminals to prevent electric shock hazards during wiring.
SOLAR CHARGE CONTROLLERS WARNING: Danger, high voltage hazard! Photovoltaic arrays may generate very high, open circuit voltages. Disconnect the circuit breaker or fuse before wiring and be very careful during wiring. WARNING: Danger, explosion hazard! If the positive and negative terminals of the battery, and the wires connected to them, are short-circuited, it may cause a fire or explosion.

SOLAR CHARGE CONTROLLERS Led Indicators ① PV Array Status ② Battery State ③ Battery Type Battery Type Selection Press the button on the right side of the controller to toggle through the supported battery types. Press and hold the button for 8 seconds. The battery type indicator will start to flash and the controller will enter an idle state.
PROTECTION Protection Features Ingress protection Rating: IP32 Input power limited protection If the power of the solar panel is higher than the rated value, the controller will limit the power of solar panel to prevent over current damage. Controller enters current-limiting mode. Battery reverse polarity protection If the battery polarity is reversed, the system will not be operational.
SOLAR CHARGE CONTROLLERS System Maintenance In order to maintain the best long-term performance of your charge controller, it is recommended to conduct the following inspections twice a year. • Make sure the airflow around the controller is not obstructed. Remove any visible dust from the heat sink with a vacuum or compressed air.
