1700W Solar Battery Charger
Maximum Power Point Tracker
MPPT60-1 General Information:
• Green LED On – Battery Ok.
• Green LED Flashing – Battery Low.
• This MPPT is designed to auto detect 12V or 24V battery systems and select a suitable charge
regime.
• The MPPT 60-1 is shipped in a sealed battery setting which is the safest setting but if your batteries are
vented or Lithium Iron then, BEFORE wiring the MPPT, follow the CHANGING BATTERY TYPE
SETTING PROCEDURE.
• The maximum absorption voltage is 14.5V or 29V and the float voltage is 13.5V or 27V
for 12V or 24V batteries respectively.
• The Absorption Mode is entered following a “low battery condition” at dawn and that mode is
maintained for the remainder of the day. If the battery is not in a “low condition” at dawn then
the Maintenance (Float) Mode is entered and that mode is maintained for the remainder of
the day.
• Custom float and absorption voltages and thresholds are possible but minimum orders apply.
• This MPPT has a built in multilevel over temperature protection to improve product reliability
while maximising output power availability.
• The maximum continuous output power is 1700W in 24V systems and 850W in 12V systems.
The output current is limited to 60A.
• Can now be installed in parallel on the output for increased charge current. Multiple chargers on
separate solar
The MPPT60-1 is designed to charge lead acid and lithium batteries from photovoltaic panels.
Silicon based panels such as monocrystalline, polycrystalline and amorphous are suitable.
