This auction is for one: Commercial grade charge control / regulator
Many of you are experimenting with do it yourself wind turbine and solar projects. I get a lot of questions about blocking diodes and chargers.I set out to design and build a charge control to this end, but after hours of research I concluded for the money I couldn't build a better controller than this one. A charge controller is an important system component that regulates the voltage generated from your renewable energy system and properly maintains your batteries. It protects your batteries from being over and under charged, and ensures maximum battery life. It is vital to a system as otherwise the battery bank must be manually monitored and connected disconnected to prevent overcharging. It is my concern that many of you purchasing these generator are overcharging batteries that are stored in plastic containers unventilated. This is not only good way to destroy expensive batteries but to cause an explosion and serious injury. This unit is good for use as a hybrid system meaning it works with solar or wind. Many of the units out there are not suitable for use with wind systems. This controller has a "dump load" outlet to which power can be diverted to another source, water heater, another battery bank ect.
Charge controller. Microprocessor controlled pulse width modulated 35 amp unit @ 12 or 24 volts. Features adjustable set points, led status indicator, electronic over current protection, manual or automatic equalization and can function as a charge controller or DC load controller.
Features
Silent, pulse width modulated (PWM), high efficiency operation
Three-stage battery charging (bulk, absorption, and float) with optional temperature compensation
Automatic overload protection in both active and passive modes
PV array short-circuit and reverse polarity protection
Durable construction
Microprocessor controlled
As a Solar Charge Controller
When used as a solar charge controller, the C40 can control 12, 24Vdc array operation and
All units offer selectable settings for NiCad, flooded lead acid, gel, or absorbed glass mat batteries
As a DC Load Controller
As a DC load controller, the C Series has a low voltage disconnect warning indicator and field
adjustable set points that govern automatic low and high voltage disconnect
Manual reset switch for emergency low voltage operation
As a Diversion Controller
The C Series automatically directs extra power to a dedicated load, such as an electric water heater,
and ensures batteries are never over charged
