1. the MPPT solar controller has the function of simultaneous input of two solar panels. In theory, the two solar panels can input
different open circuit voltages and different power, and both can work normally. however, in order to balance the overcurrent
inside the controller, it is strongly recommended that the solar panels of the same specification be used in both ways, which is
beneficial to the service life and efficiency of the controller.
2.The controller has a limited power function, and when the total power of the two solar panels or each input solar panel exceeds
the rated power, the controller will limit the charging power to the rated power, so it is strongly recommended not to connect to
solar panels that exceed the rated power.
■Connect the wire
1.For the specification of the connecting cable, refer to the installation instructions.
2.When the connection cable between the solar panel or controller and the battery is relatively far away, the use of a thicker cable
can reduce the voltage drop and increase charging efficiency
■Installation and connection
Warning: the danger of explosion!
Never install the controller and thebattery in the same airtight space! Nor should it be installed in an airtight battery where gas
may accumulate the place.
Warning: high pressure is dangerous!
PV arrays may generate high open-circuit voltages. Disconnect circuit breakers or safety before wiring, and be careful
during wiring.
Note: when installing the controller, make sure that enough air flows through the heat sink of the controller, and there is at least
150mm space above and below the controller to ensure natural convection and heat dissipation.
If installed. In a closed box, it is necessary to ensure reliable heat dissipation through the box.
MPPT15060 is a common positive design controller. The electrode of solar panel and battery can be grounded at the
same time, or any terminal can be grounded. In practical application, the terminal can also be grounded.
It is not necessary to ground separately, but the shell must be grounded during installation, which can prevent external
electromagnetic interference and shell electrification from causing damage to the human body.

■Temperature compensation
Note: when the remote temperature sensor is not connected, the controller will charge or discharge the battery at 25 ℃ by
default, without temperature compensation.
■Modification of battery charging parameters
Note: when selecting the default battery type, the charging parameters cannot be modified. If you want to modify the charging
parameters, the battery type must select "Custom".
■Overheat protection
When the internal temperature of the controller is more than 80 ℃, the controller stops working. When the temperature drops
to 60 ℃, the controller resumes charging. If the overtemperature protection is repeated three times, the charge will be stopped
completely. which needs to be reset manually or can be recharged the next day.

1.The wiring order must be in the prescribed order, first connect the
battery, and then connect the solar panel. when you disconnect the controller
you must first disconnect the solar panel. then disconnect the battery, and the
two groups of solar panels are in no order.
2. Batteries and solar panels must be connected to fuses or circuit breakers.
Recommended fuse specification: Battery:120A, Solar panels per channel: 60A
3. In the process of operation and installation, the phenomenon of short circuit
of storage battery or solar panel is strictly prohibited.
Battery type: controller can only use lead-acid batteries, lithium battery can not use
Battery voltage: it can automatically adapt to 12V , 24V , 48V battery, if you need to
use 36V battery, you must set the battery voltage to 36V on the display screen.
Batteries in series and in parallel: if batteries need to be connected in series and
parallel, ensure the capacity of each battery the voltage is basically the same.
Mixed use of batteries of different specifications is not recommended, which can easily
lead to uneven charging of individual batteries, aging and damage ahead of time.
Wiring method: it is recommended to first connect the fuse or circuit breaker to the connection line,
then fix the controller end, and finally connect to the battery to ensure that the battery is not allowed
to short circuit in the whole process, otherwise it may cause serious safety accidents.
Connection cable: the connection cable between the controller and the battery is as short as possible,
which can effectively reduce the cable loss and reduce the voltage difference.
Recommended cable specifications: length < 4m: 8mm , length > 4m: 10mm

1. The controller has two solar panel input ports, each with a maximum charging current of 30A
It can be connected arbitrarily, and the controller can work normally if only any one of the solar panels is connected.
2. For details of the maximum open-circuit voltage and power of the solar panel, see the parameter table below.
3. The battery must be connected before connecting the solar panel.
4. The size of solar panel cable is more than that of 4mm.
Load connection
1.The controller does not have a load output port directly, but it has a dry contact port,
user can control the external relay or the controller signal as the external load
through the dry node.
2.The output voltage of the dry contact port is the voltage of the battery and the output
current is 2A.
3. Verify that the working voltage of the externally connected relay or load control signal
is consistent with the output voltage of the dry contact port.
3. There are five modes of dry contact signal output: manual mode, pure light control mode,
light control on + time control off. Single-period real-time time control, dual-period
real-time time control
1. Multiple controllers are connected in parallel to share a battery pack. But each controller must be connected to a
separate solar panel matrix.
2.In the expansion system, it is recommended that the specifications of each controller and the solar panel matrix be the same,
which is conducive to charge equalization.
