Description
Photonic Universe is proud to be a direct distributor of Steca Elektronik, recognised as a global manufacturing leader in the off-grid solar electronics.
This Steca 10A PWM charge controller uses the latest charging technologies, and is suitable for 12V or 24V battery banks, with different settings for flooded and gel batteries. State of charge determination (using Steca AtonIC technology) enables optimal battery maintenance and module power monitoring.
The unit also comes with an electronic fuse and important electronic protection functions: overload, short circuit, high voltage, reverse polarity, high temperature, lightning and transient surges, reverse current at night and load disconnection. A detailed graphical LCD display shows various charging parameters (state of charge of your battery, voltage, current, energy counter etc) and makes solar charging easy to understand.
The controller can work with solar panels up to 160W (12V battery) / 320W (24V battery) and voltage up to 47V, though it achieves maximum efficiency with solar panels with operating voltage 17V-20V (for 12V battery) / 34V-40V (for 24V battery).
Controller specifications:
– Nominal battery voltage: 12V / 24V – Rated current: 10A – Solar input voltage up to 47V – 3 pairs of terminals (input, battery, output) up to 16mm2 – Temperature sensor for automatic compensation (-4mV/C/cell) – Minimum voltage to operate: 6.9V – Self-consumption: less than 12.5 mA – Working temperature: -10C to +50C – Enclosure: IP32 (indoor) – Size: 187 x 96 x 44 mm – Weight: 350 g
The product comes with a detailed installation manual and is covered by a 5 year manufacturer warranty.
