Protection
Battery Reverse Polarity,
Solar Array Reverse Polarity,
Over Temperature, PV Short
Circuit, Over Current
The total rated Maximum Power Current (Imp) of the PV
input should not exceed 30 Amps.
The GP-PWM-30 will limit PV current above 30 Amps.
Although the GP-PWM-30 will accept PV current greater
than 30 Amps for a short duration, damage may occur if the
GP-PWM-30 operates continuously with greater than 30
Amps of PV input.
