Important notes:
•
This equipment must be installed by qualified personnel only and incorrect wiring can cause
fire, injury or death – GSL will accept no responsibility for MPPT misconnection or misuse.
•
Use only sealed or vented 12V, 24V or 48V lead acid batteries and confirm the MPPT settings,
charge voltages and currents are correct for your battery system – if in any doubt seek
qualified advice!
•
Use only PV Systems with open circuit voltage below 95V.
•
Use wires suitable for at least 40A, but if wire runs are over 3m then larger wires are
recommended to limit voltage drop and losses.
•
Install the unit in a dry place out of direct sunlight and away from flammable liquids or gases.
•
Battery fuse ( BF ) is always required and must be located as close to the battery as possible,
its sizing depends on the wire size and load ratings. Typically a 80A 60VDC fuse would do.
•
The lowest Maximum Power Point system voltages are 18V for 12V batteries, 36V for 24V
batteries and 72V for 48V batteries to ensure full power.

MPPT60-2 General Information:
•
Green LED On – Battery Ok.
•
Green LED Flashing – Battery Low.
•
This MPPT is designed to auto detect 12V, 24V or 48V battery systems and select a
suitable charge regime.
•
The MPPT 60-2 is shipped in a sealed battery setting which is the safest setting but if your
batteries are vented then,
BEFORE
wiring the MPPT in, follow the
CHANGING BATTERY TYPE SETTING PROCEDURE.
•
The maximum absorption voltage is 14.5V, 29V or 58V and the float voltage is 13.5V, 27V
or 54V for 12V, 24V or 48V batteries respectively.
•
The absorption phase is entered following a low battery condition or dawn and is
maintained until the battery demand falls below 2A.
•
Custom float and absorption voltages and thresholds are possible but minimum orders apply.
•
This MPPT has a built in multilevel over temperature protection to improve product reliability
while maximising output power availability.
•
The maximum continuous output power is 3400W in 48V systems, 1700W in 24V systems
and 850W in 12V systems. The output current is limited to 60A.
