Page 8: Optional Digital Display
RV Power Products - Solar Boost 6024H Una vez instalado y configurado, las operaciones de control de carga y del MPPT son completamente automáticas. La carga se enciende siempre que el conjunto fotovoltaico sea capaz de producir ≈0.2 Amperes a ≈4.0V por encima de la tensión de la batería. Cuando la carga con el conjunto fotovoltaico esté encendida, el LED de estado de carga indicará... -

Page 10: Bulk Charge
RV Power Products - Solar Boost 6024H Bulk Charge During the bulk charge stage the battery is typically less than 70% charged, and the unit delivers as much charge current as possible to rapidly recharge the battery. Bulk charge occurs when; 1) Charge current during float increases above the Float Transition Current setting, or 2) Insufficient charge current is available to hold the battery at the desired acceptance or float voltage. -
Page 11: Float Charge
Installation and Operation Manual Float Charge Once the battery is fully charged the unit switches to float, where the float voltage is applied to the battery to maintain it in a fully charged state without excessive water loss. The float voltage is factory set to ≈13.3/26.6V. -
Page 12: Disabling Equalization
RV Power Products - Solar Boost 6024H températures basses. L’égalisation est activée lorsque le bouton-poussoir rouge de l’égalisation est relâché. VORSICHT: Die Angleichung ist eine kontrollierte Überbeladung der Batterie bei einer relativ hohen Stromspannung indem eine hohe Batteriegasierung erzeugt wird. Eine Handangleichungsfunktion wird besorgt, denn ein Operator soll immer den Vorgang plannen und monitorisieren. -
Page 13: Maximum Power Point Tracking (Mppt)
Installation and Operation Manual When mounted vertically as described in the installation section, the unit can deliver full output in an ambient temperature of up to 40°C (104°F). If an over temperature condition exists, the unit will cycle on/off, reducing average power delivery to within safe limits. -

If the unit was a conventional non-MPPT type controller using the same nominal input would be 48 amps (60A ÷ 1.25). Since input and output voltage, maximum PV input short circuit current I voltage is much higher than output voltage, I must be reduced by the ratio of conventional system PV...

Page 16: Over Voltage / Reverse Polarity Protection
RV Power Products - Solar Boost 6024H OVER VOLTAGE / REVERSE POLARITY PROTECTION Solar Boost 6024H is fully protected against reverse polarity and high voltage transients for both the PV and the battery. If the battery is connected reverse polarity, Solar Boost 6024H will not operate. If the PV array is connected reverse polarity, Solar Boost 6024H will not provide output current and the Solar Panel Current display will show negative current. -
Page 17: Grid Tied Systems
Installation and Operation Manual GRID TIED SYSTEMS Systems configured to sell excess PV power to the power grid use inverters specially designed for this purpose. In grid tied systems it is the inverter that actually controls battery voltage and therefore battery charge. Maximum power will be delivered to the grid if the Solar Boost 6024H remains in it’s bulk charge mode while selling to the grid. -
Page 18: Charge Mode
RV Power Products - Solar Boost 6024H Charge Mode Solar Boost 6024H can be configured for two stage or three stage charging. Typically three stage charge is used, but certain battery types or system configurations (such as grid tied systems) may benefit from two stage charge. When configured for two stage charge, equalization still operates as described. -
Page 19: Float Transition Current Measurement Shunt
Installation and Operation Manual Float Transition Current Measurement Shunt Solar Boost 6024H can use the internal current shunt measuring Output Charge Current, or an external current shunt measuring net battery current to determine full charge. When the battery is unloaded during charge or the load during charge is relatively constant, use the internal shunt. -

RV Power Products - Solar Boost 6024H La valeur établie du courant de transition de flotteur contrôle le moment où le système passe de l’acceptance au flotteur. Si le courant de chargement a une valeur inférieure à la valeur du courant de transition de flotteur pendant la phase d’acceptance, l’on considère que la batterie est chargée et le système passe à... -

Installation and Operation Manual le réglage soit correct pour que le système de conversion optimale d’énergie fournisse un accroissement maximal du courant. La valeur spécifiée par les producteurs est de 4.4 volts, valeur qui correspond à plusieurs modules fréquents. Die nominale MPPT Einstellung bildet den Unterschied zwischen der offenen Stromkreisspannung (V des PV Moduls und der maximalen Stromkraftspannung (V ). -
Page 22: Acceptance Charge Voltage
RV Power Products - Solar Boost 6024H Acceptance Charge Voltage Acceptance and Float charge voltage setpoints are calibrated by adjusting actual battery charge voltage as measured at the Solar Boost 6024H’s battery terminals. Setting charge voltage therefore requires that the battery be at or near full charge so that the unit is actually controlling battery voltage. -
Page 23: Metallic Conduit
Installation and Operation Manual VORSICHT: Setzen Sie die Einheit mit senkrecht orientierten Heizungssenkungskanten ein, um die Konvektionskühlung zu fördern und schließen Sie sie nicht in einem geschlossenen Raum ein. Wenn sie nicht senkrecht angesetzt sind, kann der Durchschnittsausgangsstrom gesenkt werden um die von hohen Temperaturen verursachten Beschädigungen zu vermeiden. -
Page 24: Battery And Pv Wiring
RV Power Products - Solar Boost 6024H BATTERY AND PV WIRING WARNING: This unit must be installed and wired in accordance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. Over current protection for the battery must be provided externally. To reduce the risk of fire, connect to a circuit provided with 75 amperes maximum branch-circuit over current protection in accordance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. -
Page 25: Optional External Current Shunt
Installation and Operation Manual Larger wire sizes will tend to improve boost performance whereas smaller wire sizes will reduce boost performance. When considering wiring, fuse, and connection options think big and short as larger heavier components and shorter wire lengths offer less resistance and voltage drop. -
Page 26: Input Power Sources Other Than Pv Modules
RV Power Products - Solar Boost 6024H INPUT POWER SOURCES OTHER THAN PV MODULES The Solar Boost 6024H is a high efficiency series pass “buck” type power converter and can operate with power sources other than PV. Examples of this type of charge control include hydroelectric or wind generators, or charging a 24 volt battery from a 48 volt electrical system. - Page 27 Installation and Operation Manual SYMPTOM PROBABLE CAUSE ITEMS TO EXAMINE OR CORRECT Charge current is Battery is highly charged Normal operation, system will be in Acceptance or Float and current is reduced to lower than expected, control battery voltage. PV current may be low as well Worn out PV modules Replace, or use as is.
