A solar charge controller regulates the voltage and current from solar panels to batteries, preventing overcharging and ensuring efficient power management. It enhances battery lifespan and system reliability, with types including PWM and MPPT controllers.
Description
Solar Charge Controllers
Every solar electric system with batteries should have a solar charge controllers. A charge controller regulates the amount of current the PV modules feed into a battery bank. Their main function is to prevent overcharging of the batteries, but charge controllers also block battery bank current from leaking back into the photovoltaic array at night or on cloudy days, draining the battery bank.
The two main types are PWM (Pulse Width Modulated) and MPPT ( Maximum Power Point Tracking). PWM technology is older and more commonly used on smaller solar arrays. Choose a PWM charge controller that is the same as your solar array and battery bank. The controller must also have enough capacity (in rated Amps) to handle the total current of the solar array safely. MPPT charge controllers can track the maximum power point of a solar array and deliver 10-25% more power than a PWM controller could do for the same array. They do this by converting excess voltage into usable current. Another feature of MPPT charge controllers is their ability to accept higher voltage from the solar array for output to a lower voltage battery bank.
