Charge Controller Safety
This manual contains important safety, installation, and
operating instructions for the charge controller. The following
symbols are used throughout the manual:
There are no serviceable parts for this controller. Do
NOT
disassemble or attempt to repair the controller.
Make sure all connections going into and from the controller
are tight. There may be sparks when making connections,
therefore, make sure there are not flammable materials or
gases near installation.

connect the solar panel array to the controller
without a battery. Battery must be connected first. This may
cause a dangerous occurrence where the controller would
experience a high open circuit voltage at the terminals.
Ensure input voltage does not exceed
50 VDC
to prevent
permanent damage. Use the Open Circuit (Voc) to make
sure the voltage does not exceed this value when connecting
panels together in series.
