AVERTISSEMENT:

   

RISQUE DE CHOC ÉLETRIQUE.

   

              

NON ALIMENTATION OU AUX BORNES D’ACCESSOIRES SONT ISOLÉS ÉLEC-

TRIQUEMENT DE L’ENTRÉE DE C.C ET DOIT ÊTRE ALIMENTÉS À UNE    TENSION DAN-
GEREUSE SOLAIRE. SOUS CERTAINES CONDITIONS DE DÉFAILLANCE, LA BATTERIE 
POURRAIT DEVENIR TROP CHARGÉE. TEST ENTRE TOUTES LES BORNES ET LA MASSE 
AVANT DE TOUCHER. 

 External solaire et la batterie se déconnecte sont nécessaires.

•  Déconnectez toutes les sources d’alimentation du contrôleur avant d’installer ou de régler 

le TriStar MPPT 150V.

•  Installez des fusibles/coupe-circuits externes selon le besoin.

Installation Safety Precautions

WARNING:  
This unit is not provided with a GFDI device. This charge controller must be 
used with an external GFDI device as required by the Article 690 of the National 
Electrical Code for the installation location.

•  Mount the TriStar MPPT 150V indoors. Prevent exposure to the elements and do not allow 

water to enter the controller.

•  Install the TriStar MPPT 150V in a location that prevents casual contact. The 

TriStar MPPT 150V heatsink can become very hot during operation.

•  Use insulated tools when working with batteries.

•  Avoid wearing jewelry during installation.

•  The battery bank must be comprised of batteries of same type, make, and age.

•  Do not smoke near the battery bank.

•  Power connections must remain tight to avoid excessive heating from a loose connection.

•  Use properly sized conductors and circuit interrupters.

• 

The grounding terminal is located in the wiring compartment and is identified by the 

symbol below.

Safety Information

•  Read all of the instructions and cautions in the manual before beginning installation.

•  There are no user serviceable parts inside the TriStar MPPT 150V.  Do not disassemble 

or attempt to repair the controller.

WARNING:

  

RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK.

  

             

NO  POWER OR ACCESSORY TERMINALS ARE ELECTRICALLY ISOLATED FROM 

DC INPUT, AND MAY BE ENERGIZED WITH HAZARDOUS SOLAR VOLTAGE.  UNDER CER-
TAIN FAULT CONDITIONS, BATTERY COULD BECOME OVER-CHARGED.  TEST BETWEEN 
ALL TERMINALS AND GROUND BEFORE TOUCHING.

 

•  External solar and battery disconnects are required.

•  Disconnect all sources of power to the controller before installing or adjusting the 

TriStar MPPT 150V.  

•  There are no fuses or disconnects inside the TriStar MPPT 150V  Do not attempt to repair.
