PRODUCT INFORMATION
The Sola-Prod MPPT charge controller 10A is based on advanced MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracking) control algorithm, with an LCD display to monitor the running status.
The MPPT control algorithm can minimize the maximum power point loss rate and loss time, quickly track the maximum power point of the PV array and obtain the maximum energy from solar modules under any condition and can increase the ratio of energy utilization in the solar system by 20 – 30% compared to a PWM charging method.
The newly designed screen adds the display of battery type and Bluetooth/Wi/Fi, easy for you to check the running status. Limiting the charging power and reducing charging power functions ensures the system stability over PV modules in high temperature environments.
With comprehensive electronic fault self-detecting functions and powerful electronic protection functions built inside the controller, component damage caused by installation errors or system failures can be avoided to the greatest extent possible.
FEATURES OF THE SOLA-PROD MPPT SOLAR CHARGE CONTROLLER 12/24V 10A
- With the advanced dual-peak or multi-peak tracking technology, when the solar panel is shadowed or part of the panel fails resulting in multiple peaks on the I-V curve, the unit is still able to rack the maximum power point,
- Advanced MPPT technology, with efficiency not less than 99.5%,
- Maximum DC/DC conversion efficiency of 98%,
- Ultra-fast tracking speed and great tracking efficiency,
- Advanced MPPT control algorithm to maximize the MPP loss rate and loss time
- Limited charging power and current over rated range. When the solar panel power exceeds a certain level and the charging current is larger than the rated current, the unit will automatically lower the charging power and bring the charging current to the rated level.
- Support the lead-acid, gel, flooded with the needed Temp. compensation and support lithium batteries start from the solar panel
- Power reduction automatically over temperature range
- Monitor and set the parameters via App(optional)
- LCD Screen
- USB Output 5V/2A

WARNING AND LIMITATIONS ON THE SOLA-PROD SOLAR CHARGE CONTROLLER
- Risk of explosion! Never install the controller and an open battery in the same enclosed space. Nor shall the controller be installed in an enclosed space where battery gas may accumulate,
- Danger of high voltage! Photovoltaic arrays may produce a very high open-circuit voltage. Open the breaker or fuse before wiring, and be careful during the wiring process,
- When installing the Solar Charge Controller 12/24V 10A, make sure that enough air flows through the controller’s vents, and leave at least 100mm of space above and below the controller to ensure natural convection for heat dissipation. If the controller is installer in an enclosure, make sure the box delivers reliable heat dissipation effect.
- Do not install the unit at a place that is subject to direct sunlight, high temperature or water intrusion, and make sure the ambient environment is well ventilated.
- Connect the system in the order of battery first, then the PV. Disconnect the system in reverse order, first the PV then the battery,
- While wiring the controller do not close the circuit breaker or fuse and make sure that the leads I “+” and “-“ poles are connected correctly,
- A fuse which current is 1.25 to 2 tomes the rated current of the controller, must be installed on the battery side with a distance from the battery not exceeding 150mm,
- If an inverter is to be connected to the system, connect the inverter directly to the battery, not the the load side of the controller.
