3.1 Udpakning og første inspektion

Carefully remove the solar charge controller from its packaging. Inspect the unit for any visible damage that may have occurred during shipping. Verify that all included components, as listed in the product packaging, are present.

3.2 Ledningsdiagram

Proper wiring is crucial for the safe and efficient operation of your solar power system. The following diagram illustrates the recommended connection sequence. Ensure all components are rated appropriately for your system's voltage og nuværende krav.

Solar power system installation diagram

Figure 3.1: Detailed wiring diagram for the solar power system. Step 1 shows the battery bank connection to the MPPT controller, recommending 2AWG wire for the 140A charging current. Step 2 illustrates the battery-inverter connection. Step 3 details the solar panel connection to the MPPT controller, specifying a maximum PV array power of 6500W, 500V open-circuit voltage, and recommending 12AWG PV wire size. Circuit breakers, bus bars, and shunts are shown as separate components not included with the controller.

Forbindelsessekvens:

  1. Tilslut batteriet: Connect the battery bank to the controller's battery terminals. Ensure correct polarity. Recommended battery wire size is 2AWG for the 140A charging current.
  2. Connect the Inverter (Optional): If using an inverter, connect it to the battery bank. The wiring cable from the inverter to the battery and the breaker are not included.
  3. Tilslut solpanelerne: Connect the solar panel array to the controller's PV input terminals. The maximum PV array power is 6500W, and the maximum PV open-circuit voltage is 500V. For optimal results, 12AWG wire is recommended for photovoltaic connections. Ensure all solar panels are connected in series to meet the controller's voltage krav.

3.3 Montering af controlleren

Mount the controller vertically on a solid surface, ensuring adequate clearance around the unit for proper ventilation. Avoid mounting in direct sunlight or areas with high humidity. Use appropriate fasteners for the mounting surface.

The controller utilizes a three-stage charging process to prolong battery lifecycle:

  1. Boost Charge: Rapidly charges the battery to its bulk charging voltage.
  2. Bulk Charge (Constant Charging): Maintains a constant charging current until the battery reaches a set voltage.
  3. Flydeafgift: Maintains the battery at a full state of charge by providing a small, constant voltage.
  4. Udligningsafgift: A periodic overcharge to balance battery cells (Note: Equalization charge is once a month).
