March Solar – Charge Controllers Charge controllers regulate how much charge your batteries get. Basically it is a smart switch that prevents your batteries from being over charged. It disconnects and reconnects (as required) the power coming from the solar panels to the batteries. March Solar is pleased to offer quality controllers: Such as the ProStar charge contoller by PROSTAR Select it for LARGER Image Model 12 20 30 Rated PV current 12 20 30 Rated Load Current 8 16 30 Max PV Current 15 25 35 Max Load Current 10 20 35 Reliable, low cost, simple to use Features: LCD meter 1% accurate three digit display Manual Disconnect Switch; disconnects all loads and PV inputs Automatic Voltage Selection 12 or 24 volts LVD Low Voltage Disconnect F.E.T.s no mechanical relays to fail Easy connect Terminals accepts up to #6 AWG (5mm) Five year warranty Automatic Equalization Really cool styling with neat LEDs and LCD Pulse Width Modulation constant voltage charging algorithm Temperature Compensation Temp range: -40 C to 85 C Rated Life: 15 years SPECIFICATIONS: 6" x 4" x 2.25" deep 153mm x 105 x 55 max.
