12 Volt model 24 and 48 volt models Available message for details
Unlike the other dump load controls sold this controller is wired in between the charging source and the battery bank
If using this in a wind system you will need the divert switch in addition.....See other auction for charge control for wind system
This is not the divert load its self but the switch that send the power to the dump load if interested message me for details
Ultra High Efficiency 60 Amp Solar and Wind Charging System Controller
For those of you looking for A charge control for use with wind and solar at the same time with a high power capacity this is the one!!!
The patented circuit architecture developed during the design of the NC25A charge controller was used as the basis for the development of the NCHC family of controllers. Pretty it may not be, but the NCHC will regulate PV, Wind, or any other current limited charging source with the highest efficiency possible in an alternative energy system charge controller.
The NCHC line of controllers are series type regulators for use on flooded lead acid, gel, or flooded NiCad battery technologies. The regulation voltage is adjustable through a wide range. Available as an option with this controller is CHARGE DIVERT which allows you to use the excess unregulated energy from your charging source for other electrical jobs. The NC25A Regulates charging inputs from PV, Permanent Magnet Wind and Towed Water Generators, or any other current limited DC charging source. Standard unit is for 12V systems. Special order for 24V, 36V or 48V systems. (1000A max charging current in this configuration). Multiple battery banks can be charged with the use of a standard battery charging isolators.
Efficiency
How does the NCHC achieve this level of efficiency, and why is it so important? We designed the NCHC controllers with an amazingly low insertion loss resistance of only 0.001 ohms. ( Insertion Loss Resistance is the total resistance of the controllers regulating circuit from input to output on both the positive and negative wires).
Now a little math to prove the point (That' s what happens when you let the engineers work on a web page...)
The power wasted as heat in a charge controller is calculated by the following simple formula:
(Power Wasted as Heat) = (Resistance) x (Charging Current) x (Charging Current) or P= R x I2.
So how much power does the NCHC 60 ampere controller waste at 60A of charging current?
P = 0.001 x 60 x 60 = Only 3.6 watts.
By Comparison how much power does a typical brand 60A controller with 0.010 ohms of insertion loss resistance waste while charging at 60 amperes.
P= 0.01 x 60 x 60 = 36 watts of heat (WOW!) Precisely why you will see large heat sinks on these controllers, to dissipate all that wasted energy. You would also need and additional 36W solar panel ($$$) to put the same amount of energy into the battery bank, than is required with the NCHC-60 controller.
Expandable
The NCHC controllers can be expanded with amazing simplicity to grow with your charging system. Just add an additional high efficiency contactor and extend three wires from the previous contactor. It is possible to add as many as 4ea 100A contactors to the standard NCHC, with no special modifications, or as many as 20ea with a simple addition of an interface contactor. That's as much as 2000A of charging current capacity at up to 48V (96KWs of Charging Energy) while still using only 0.005 amperes to operate the charging circuitry.
By using separate contactors for different types of charging sources the charging sources are automatically isolated from each other when the controller is regulating. For example: Connect the PV System to one contactor, connect a wind generator to the other contactor which is paired with a divert contactor. When the controller goes to Divert mode the PV system is isolated from the Wind system and the divert load is applied to the wind generator only.
Charge Divert
By adding a different type of contactor you can add Charge Divert to the NCHC. This feature connects the charging source directly, with no regulation, to the Divert Load. Divert is only active only while voltage and current are at usable levels from the charging source.
Some uses for Charge Divert:
- Pumping applications
- Ventilation Blowers
- Loads on wind and water permanent magnet generators.
