1) MPPT operating voltage range is constrained by battery voltage – PV VOC should not exceed 8 x
battery float voltage. For example, a 52,8 V float voltage results in a maximum PV VOC of 422,4 V. See
product manual for further information.
2) A higher short circuit current may damage the controller if the PV array is connected in reverse polarity.
3) Max. 450 VOC results in approx. 360 Vmpp, therefore the maximum PV array is appr. 360V x 20A = 7200
Wp.
4) The MPPT RS will test for sufficient resistive isolation between PV+ and GND, and PV- and GND. In the
event of a resistance below the threshold, the unit will stop charging, display the error, and send the
error signal to the GX device (if connected) for audible and email notification.
5) Programmable relay which can be set for general alarm, DC under voltage or genset start/stop
function. DC rating: 4 A up to 35 VDC and 1 A up to 70 VDC
6) The MPPT RS is currently not compatible with VE.Smart Networks.
7) The Charger set-point (float and absorption) can be set to max 60 V. The output voltage at the
charger terminals can be higher, due to temperature compensation as well as compensation for
voltage drop over the battery cables. The maximum output current is reduced on a linear basis from
full current at 60 V to 5A at 62 V. The equalization voltage can be set to max 62V, the equalization
current percentage can be set to max 6%.
