Operating Instructions

Please read these instructions before use

Unit 2, 110 Station Road, Seven Hills ,NSW,  2147, Australia

MPPT30-2-R8

  Important notes:

•    

This MPPT should only be operated with a suitable battery connected.

•    

To further protect sensitive and or expensive loads we strongly recommend the use of our MIHV

     devices on MPPT installations.

•    

Before any maintenance ensure that the panels are disconnected or de-energised.

   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 40A 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.

    MPPT30-2 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 30-2 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 1.5A.

    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 1700W in 48V systems, 850W in 24V systems  

      and  425W in 12V systems. The output current is limited to 30A.
