Smart 12V/24V PWM Charge Controller - 30A

Overview

This 30A PWM charge controller efficiently identifies whether you're using a 12V or 24V system and optimizes charging for Sealed, GEL, Flooded, and Lithium batteries. Featuring three-stage charging, temperature compensation, various load modes, and built-in safety protections, this device offers reliable solar charging with minimal maintenance. The clear dot-matrix LCD and intuitive two-button operation simplify the user experience.

Benefits

• Extend battery life and minimize maintenance with charging profiles that optimize performance and prevent sulfation on lead-acid batteries.
• Streamline installation with automatic voltage detection for 12V/24V systems and an easy manual override option.
• Protect your equipment from damage or downtime with robust safeguards against overcharge, over-discharge, overload, short-circuits, and reverse polarity.
• Customize control of lights and loads to fit your schedule or requirements, thanks to five different operating modes.
• Enjoy confidence in various settings, with clear display feedback and retained settings for use after power interruptions.
