FUnctionS
The solar charge controller:
- Monitors the state of charge of the battery bank,
- controls the charging process,
- controls the connection/disconnection of loads.
This optimises battery use and significantly extends its service life.
A battery charging algorithm protects the battery from harmful states. Activation of
the three deep discharge functions (LVW, LVD and LVr) is dependent upon the state of
charge (SoC). The switching thresholds lie within the corresponding voltage window in
accordance with the discharge or charging current.
conStRUction
The solar charge controller consists of the following components:
1. Info LeD
2. 4 LeDs for displaying the State of Charge
(reD - 2a, yeLLoW - 2b, greeN - 2c & greeN - 2d)
3. Terminal block for connecting solar module
4. Terminal block for connecting battery
5. Terminal block for connecting loads
