3400W Solar Battery Charger 

Maximum Power Point Tracker

Operating Instructions

Please read these instructions before use

MPPT60-2-R7

This revolutionary maximum power point tracker solar charger was designed using the 

technology that won GSL Electronics the prestigious EDN Innovation Awards 08’ and 09’ 

and the Greentech Consensus Awards 09’. A simple, compact and low cost alternative. 

Ideal for charging batteries from new low cost and high efficiency panels. 

The MPPT 60-2 is designed to automatically charge 12V, 24V and 48V sealed and vented lead 

acid batteries from silicon based pv panels such as monocrystalline, polycrystalline and thin film. 
It has a built in Load Low Voltage Disconnect configurable as a Dawn to Dusk switch. It can be 

connected to the MCM for remote control and full system parameter logging and display.
