Operation
Temperature Compensation
All charging settings are based on 25°C (77°F). If the battery temperature varies by 5°C, the
charging setting will change by 0.60 Volts for a 48 Volt battery. This is a substantial change in
the charging of the battery, and the use of the Remote Temperature Sensor (RTS) is recom-
mended to adjust charging to the actual battery temperature.
The need for temperature compensation depends on the temperature variations, battery type,
how the system is used, and other factors. If the battery appears to be gassing too much or not
charging enough, the RTS can be added at any time after the system has been installed. See
Section 3.4 - Step 7 for installation instructions.
Battery Sense
Voltage drops are unavoidable in power cables that carry current, including the
TS-MPPT-600V-TR battery cables. If Battery Sense wires are not used, the controller must use
the voltage reading at the battery power terminals for regulation. Due to voltage drops in the
battery cables, the battery power connection voltage will be higher than the actual battery bank
voltage while charging the battery.
Two sense wires, sized from 1.0 to 0.25 mm
2
(16 to 24 AWG), can be used for battery voltage
sense. Because these wires carry no current, the voltage at the TriStar will be identical to the
battery voltage. A 2-position terminal is used for the battery sense connection.
Generally accepted wiring practice is to limit voltage drops between the charger and the battery
to 2%. Even properly sized wiring results in significant voltage drop that can impact charging. The
controller will begin Absorption or limit equalization at a lower battery voltage because the volt-
age at the controller’s terminals is higher than the actual battery voltage.
Note that the battery sense wires will not power the controller, and the sense wires will not com-
pensate for losses in the power wires between the controller and the battery. The battery sense
wires are only used to improve the accuracy of the battery charging.
See Section 3.4 - Step 8 for instructions on how to connect the battery sense wires.
4.4 GFPD-600V Operation
Refer to the included GFPD-600V product manual for complete operating information.
Ground-Fault Detection:
Ground-fault protection is used in electrical systems to prevent current from following any unintended
paths. It is critical to detect any stray current, and to interrupt (break) the circuit until safe operation
can be restored.
Any current imbalance between the (+) and (-) conductors of a circuit indicates a ground-fault.
Morningstar’s GFPD-600V will detect this condition, and break the circuit on both the (+) and (-)
legs, ensuring interruption.
