Protection Features During
Operation
NOTE
: When an event is detected the LED indicators flash and the
individual icons on the LCD Display also flash.
Event
Event Description
PV over-current
When the PV array's charging current exceeds the charge controller's rated
current, the charge controller will charge at its rated current.
PV over-voltage
When the PV array's voltage exceeds 50V, the charge controller will stop
charging and restart when voltage drops below 45V.
PV short circuit
When the PV array's voltage is below 50V and experiences a short-circuit
event , the charge controller will stop charging and restart when the short-
circuit is rectified..
PV reverse
polarity
The charge controller will not function but remains undamaged. Correct the
reverse polarity and operate normally.
Reverse charging
The charge controller prevents the battery from reverse charging to the PV
array during nighttime or blocked sun situations.
Battery reverse
polarity
The charge controller will prevent the battery from damage when the cable
connections are reversed. Correct the reverse polarity and operate
normally.
Battery over-
voltage
The charge controller will stop charging when the battery reaches the over-
voltage disconnect setpoint to prevent battery damage.
Battery over-
temperature
In conjunction with the optional Remote Battery Temperature Sensor (PN:
708-0080), the charge controller will stop charging when the battery
temperature exceeds 65 °C. It will return to normal operation when battery
temperature cools down to 65 °C.
Unit over-
temperature
The charge controller will stop charging when the charge controller's
internal temperature exceeds 85 °C. It will return to normal operation when
its internal temperature cools down to 75 °C.
Transient voltage
The charge controller has TVS (transient voltage suppressor) protection
which can withstand low energy surges. In environments where lightning is
frequent, you are recommended to install a lightning arrestor.
