MPPT CHARGE CONTROLLER
- An MPPT solar charge controller stands for “Maximum Power Point Tracking”.
- It will measure the Vmp voltage of the panel and down-converts the PV voltage to the battery voltage.
- When the voltage is dropped to match the battery bank, the current is raised, with a 20V solar panel, you can charge a 12V battery bank.
FEATURES OF CHARGE CONTROLLER
- Multistage charging of battery bank - changes the amount of power set to the batteries based on its charge level, for healthier batteries.
- Reverse current protection - stops the solar panels from draining the batteries at night when there is no power coming from the solar panels.
- Low voltage disconnect - turns off the attached load when the battery is low and turns it back on when the battery is charged back up.
Lighting control - turns attached light on and off based on dusk and dawn. Many controllers are configurable, allowing settings for a few hours or all night, or somewhere in between. - Display- may show the voltage of battery bank, state of charge, amps coming in from solar panel.
