Description

Key Features

  • Ultra-High 245V PV Input: Supports a Maximum Open Circuit Voltage (VOC) of 245V (for 24V/36V/48V systems), enabling you to connect multiple panels in series, significantly reducing cable thickness and power loss over long distances. (Note: 12V systems limited to 100V VOC).

  • Quad-Voltage Support (12/24/36/48V): Unlike standard controllers, the F-Series is compatible with 12V, 24V, 36V, and 48V systems. It automatically detects 12/24/48V, while 36V can be manually set, offering unmatched versatility.

  • Massive Power Handling:

    • 60A Model: Up to 3760W PV input (48V).

    • 80A Model: Up to 5000W PV input (48V).

    • 100A Model: Up to 6250W PV input (48V), plus a dedicated 100A DC Load Output.

  • Advanced MPPT Technology: Tracks the maximum power point with >99% efficiency, ensuring every watt of solar energy is harvested, even in shading or cloudy weather. Peak conversion efficiency reaches 98%.

  • Smart Battery Charging: Features 3-Stage Charging (Bulk, Absorption, Float) with presets for AGM, Gel, Flooded, and a User mode for Lithium batteries. Includes a Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) port for precise compensation.

  • Connectivity & Monitoring: Equipped with RS485 and USB ports, allowing for connection to PC monitoring software or external display modules for advanced data analysis.

  • Fan Cooling: Active fan cooling ensures the controller operates at full capacity even in hot environments (up to 55°C).

Applications

  • Large Off-Grid Homes: The 80A/100A models can handle substantial solar arrays (5KW+) for whole-house power.

  • Communication Base Stations: Reliable 48V charging for telecom backup systems.

  • Solar Water Pumping: High voltage input is ideal for matching with certain DC pump configurations.
