1700W Solar Battery Charger 

Maximum Power Point Tracker

Operating Instructions

Please read these instructions before use

MPPT30-2L-R3

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 MPPT30-2L is designed to automatically charge 12V, 24V and 48V Lithium Iron Phosphate 

batteries from silicon based pv panels such as monocrystalline, polycrystalline and thin film. It 
has a built in Load Over Voltage switch configurable as a Remote Load Control or a Dawn to 

Dusk Switch. It can be connected to the MCM for remote control and full system parameter log-
ging and display.
