2. INTRODUCTION
2.1 OVERVIEW
The 30A RV-C MPPT solar controller is an advanced dual bank controller with RV-C communication for smart RV sys-
tems. As an MPPT Solar controller it continuously monitors the solar panel’s generating power and tracks the maximum
power point, enabling the system to charge the battery with maximum power all the time. It is designed to be used in
off-grid solar photovoltaic systems to coordinate operation of the solar panel, battery, functioning as the core control unit in
off-grid photovoltaic systems.
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.
This product features an optional LCD remote which displays the operating status and allows the control of configurable
parameters. Users can conveniently check parameters using the buttons and modify control parameters to cater to dif-
ferent system requirements. The optional remote also includes Bluetooth communication that allows a smart phone to be
conveniently used to perform all the same tasks that the LCD remote can.
2.2 FEATURES
•
Advanced 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 controller is still able to accurately track the maximum power point
•
Built-in maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm significantly increases energy utilization efficiency of the
photovoltaic system, (up to 30% higher than traditional PWM charging)
•
MPPT tracking efficiency of up to 99.9%
•
Power conversion efficiency of up to 98%
•
Lithium battery reset capability allows a BMS protected over discharged battery to be automatically recovered
without having to disconnect the battery
•
Presets for multiple battery chemistries, including LiFePO4, Flooded, Gel and AGM
•
Supports user customized charge parameters
•
Current-limited charging mode. When the power of solar panel is too large and the charging current is higher than
the rated value, the controller automatically reduces the charging power so that the solar panel can operate at the
rated charging current.
•
Features LED fault indicators, which can display abnormal information, helps users to quickly identify system faults.
•
Historical data storage function is available
•
Minimal derating up to the maximum operating temperature
•
Dual-battery management
•
Temperature compensation and automatic adjustment of charge parameters help to improve battery life.
