Important Safety Instructions
Warning
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they are
supervised or have been instructed on how to use the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Do not use the Solar Panel Kit to charge non-rechargeable batteries. Doing so may result in
harm to the user and/or damage to the Regulator and/or Solar Panel. Only use the Solar Panel
Kit for charging Standard Lead Acid, calcium content, Gel & AGM type 12V batteries.
All lead acid batteries produce harmful, explosive gases. The battery should be mounted in a
well ventilated area, as far as possible from any ignition sources. Do not smoke when in the
vicinity of the battery under charge.
Battery acid is a harmful substance. Care should be taken when working with lead acid
batteries.If the acid comes into contact with your eyes or skin, immediately wash the affected
area with cold running water and seek medical assistance. Eye protection and gloves should be
worn when handling lead acid batteries.
The Solar Panel Kit will achieve best results when proper battery maintenance is regularly
performed. This includes but is not limited to checking water and specific gravity levels of the
battery.
WARNING!
Check the manufacturers data for your battery and ensure that the ‘Absorption’ voltage of
the profile you select does not exceed the manufacturers recommended maximum charging
voltage. If the ‘Absorption’ voltage for your battery type is too high, please select another
charging profile.

Installation Instructions
General Installation Notes
●Read through the entire installation section first before beginning installation.
●Be very careful when working with batteries. Wear eye protection. Have fresh water
available to wash and clean any skin contact with battery acid.
●Uses insulated tools and avoid placing metal objects near the batteries.
●Explosive battery gases may be present during charging. Be certain there is sufficient
ventilation to release the gases.
●Loose power connections and/or corroded wires may result in resistive connections
that melt wire insulation, burn surrounding materials, or even cause fire. Ensure tight
connections by using cable clamps to secure cables and prevent them from swaying in
mobile applications.
●Use with Gel, Sealed or Flooded batteries only.
●Battery connection may be wired to one battery or a bank of batteries. The following
instructions refer to a singular battery, but it is implied that the battery connection can be
made to either one battery or a group of batteries in a battery bank.
●Select the system cables according to 2.5mm2.
Wiring
NOTE
A recommended connection order has been provided for maximum safety during installation.
NOTE
The controller is a common positive ground controller.
CAUTION
Don’t connect the loads with surge power exceeding the ratings of the controller.
CAUTION
For mobile applications, be sure to secure all wiring. Use cable clamps to prevent cables
from swaying when the vehicle is in motion. Unsecured cables create loose and resistive
connections which may lead to excessive heat and/or fire.

Operation
PWM Technology (Series Pulse Width Modulation)
The controller adopts the advanced series pulse width modulation (PWM) charging mode.
With range of 0-100%, it can charge the battery quickly and stably under any condition of solar
photovoltaic system.
PWM charging mode uses automatic conversion duty ratio pulses current to charge the battery.
The battery can be fully charged safely and rapidly with the pulse current. Intermissions allow
the oxygen and hydrogen generated by chemical reactions to be combined again and absorbed.
It can eliminate concentration polarization and ohm polarization naturally and reduce the
internal pressure of the battery so that the battery can absorb more power. Pulse current
charging mode allows the battery more time to react, which reduces the gassing volume and
improves the acceptance rate of the charging current.
Battery Charging Information
●Bulk Charge
In this stage, the battery voltage has not yet reached boost voltage and 100% of available
solar power is used to charge the battery.
●Boost Charge
When the battery has recharged to the Boost voltage setpoint, constant- current regulation
is used to prevent overheating and excessive battery gassing. The Boost stage lasts for 120
minutes and then goes to Float Charge.
●Float Charge
After the battery is fully charged in the Boost voltage stage, the controller reduces the
battery voltage to the Float voltage set point. When the battery is fully recharged, there
will be no more chemical reactions and all the charge current transmits into heat and gas
at this time. Then the controller reduces the voltage to the floating stage, charging with
a smaller voltage and current. This reduces the temperature of the battery and prevents
gassing, while also charging the battery slightly at the same time. The purpose of Float
stage is to offset the power consumption caused by self consumption and small loads in
the whole system, while maintaining full battery storage capacity. In Float stage, loads
can continue to draw power from the battery. In the event that the system load(s) exceed
English

10
Operation
the solar charge current, the controller will no longer be able to maintain the battery at
the Float setpoint. Should the battery voltage remains below the boost reconnect charging
voltage, the controller will exit Float stage and return to Bulk charge.
●Equalize Charge
WARNING: Risk of explosion
Equalizing flooded battery can produce explosive gases, so ventilation of battery box is
necessary.
NOTE: Equipment damage
Equalization may increase battery voltage to a level that is damaging to sensitive DC loads.
Ensure that all load allowable input voltages are greater than the equalizing charging set
point voltage.
NOTE: Equipment damage
Over-charging and excessive gas precipitation may damage the battery plates and activate
material shedding on them. Too high (or too long) an equalizing charge may cause damage.
Please carefully review the specific requirements of the battery used in the system.
Certain types of batteries benefit from periodic equalizing charge, which can stir the electrolyte,
balance battery voltage and complete a chemical reaction. Equalizing charge increases the
battery voltage, higher than the standard complement voltage, which gasifies the battery
electrolyte. If the battery is being over discharged, the solar controller will automatically turn
to equalize charging stage, which lasts for 120 minutes. Equalize charge and boost charge
are not carried out constantly in a full charge process to avoid too much gas precipitation or
overheating of battery.

Protection
PV Short Circuit
If the PV array short circuits, the controller will stop charging, so clear it to resume normal
operation.
PV Reverse Polarity
For full protection against PV reverse polarity, correct the wire connection to resume normal
operation.
Battery Reverse Polarity
For full protection against battery reverse polarity, correct the wire connection to resume
normal operation.
Battery Over Voltage
When the battery voltage reaches the set point of Over Voltage Disconnect Voltage, the
controller will stop charging the battery to protect the battery from being over charged.
Battery Over Discharge
When the battery voltage reaches the set point of Low Voltage Disconnect Voltage, the
controller will stop discharging the battery to protect the battery from being over discharged.
Battery Overheating
The controller detects the environment temperature through the external temperature sensor.
If the environment temperature exceeds 65ºC, the controller will automatically start the
overheating protection until the unit recovers to a temperature of below 50ºC.
Controller Overheating
If the internal temperature of the controller exceeds 85ºC, the controller will automatically
start the overheating protection, and recover below 75ºC.
High Voltage Transients
The controller is protected against small high voltage transients. In lightning prone areas,
additional external suppression is recommended.
