Outback Solar Panel Controller
The input pv voltage can handle up to 150vdc open circuit for charging batteries from 12 to 60vdc.
Outback solar panel controller. Developed by outback power its features include support for a wide range of nominal battery voltages and the ability to step down a higher voltage solar array to recharge a lower voltage battery bank. Innovative solar harvesting and battery charging algorithms allow customers to maximize system potential and increase renewable energy yield by up to 30 percent. Since most mppt controls can take up to 150 volts dc some can go higher up to 600 vdc on the solar panel input side you can often series two or more of the high voltage panels to reduce wire loss or to use smaller wire. The advanced fm100 mppt algorithm offers increased energy harvest from the pv array than other mppt controllers.
Pv array input to the controllers must be isolated. The flexmax charge controllers are the revolution. The flexmax 100 is the latest innovation in maximum power point tracking mppt charge controllers from outback power. Their real time active maximum power point tracking mppt solar charge controller system ensures that your solar array is operating at its peak power point regardless of age shading or environmental conditions.
The only way to get full power out of high voltage grid tie solar panels is to use an mppt controller. Outback power string sizing tool. The flexmax 100 delivers both higher voltage and higher power offering improved flexibility and performance. See the link above for detailed information on mppt charge controls.
Outback s ingenuity and engineering experience has been combined to maximize the output power of your expensive solar array. A charge controller s main function is to optimize a pv array s output which can fluctuate based on shading and temperature variables found on the average roof. The specific fm80 model also comes with a built in 80 character display that shows data logs from the past 128 days. Outback solar charge controllers mppt the flexmax family of mppt solar charge controllers raises the bar for high performance solar controllers.
Description the fm60 is the latest innovation in maximum power point tracking mppt charge controllers from outback power systems. With such a large voltage capacity the outback controller is great for grid tie solar panel systems. The flexmax 60s innovative mppt algorithm is both continuous and active increasing your renewable energy yield up to 30. Our midnite solar and outback charge controllers regulate the power coming from your solar panels wind turbine or other charging sources to your batteries to prevent overcharging.
Flexmax60 80 manual see array design. This means two controllers cannot work on the same solar array. Outback s industry leading maximum power point tracking mppt charge controllers offer customers the same reliability and durability built into every outback product. Whether you need a solar inverter solar battery or other renewable energy product outback is the choice for your system.
Multiple controllers can be paralleled on the battery bank to meet system charging needs handle all the pv power.
