PERATING PRINCIPLE
The design of YPOWER solar charge regulator is based on a high-frequency converter that transforms solar panel
voltage (until 72 cells, 45V) into regulated and filtered DC signal 12 or 24V.
MPPT technology (Maximum Power Point Tracking) increases the efficiency of solar panels enabling to recharge
batteries faster
.
Once the type of battery and type of charge has been selected, operation of the regulator is entirely automatic (unless
otherwise specified by the supplier or the manufacturer of the batteries). It can remain connected to the batteries and
does not need to be disconnected when starting up an engine (marine application), because it is equipped with an
integrated separator.

VERVIEW PRESENTATION
The regulators are divided into 2 zones:
•
The user interface zone
•
The energy conversion zone (all maintenance in this area is forbidden except with CRISTEC authorization, under
penalty of warranty termination)
Fixing of the regulator is made by 4 x M5 round head screws (screw head diameter less than 10 mm).
Center distance: see corresponding drawing in the chapter “Regulator overall dimensions”
